Hawaii UCF20

Posted on Club Lexus but not on here. I used to own a 91 LS400 & a 99 Q45. Picked up a 95 LS400 a couple weeks ago. Got a GREAT deal on this one so I just had to :thumbsup: Anyway, it's been well maintained, super clean, and all stock except for drop springs, sounds, and the wheels. about 116,xxx miles on it. Getting the timing/water pump & tune up done. After that I can actually start building! Here she is:

Today I sprayed the grille black. I didn't like how the stock grayish color looked against the black color of the car. IMO it looks better to me now :biggthumpup: I'll post up some photos of it when I get the chance to. Even interior shots.

keep it two toned!

Thanks! =) A T1i...it's about time I upgraded though.

Today I wasn't lazy so I went outside to shoot a few photos to show you the resprayed grille and some interior shots.

Here's my grille that I sprayed black because I didn't like how the grayish color it came in looked against the black color of the car.

I'm not that in a rush to upgrade. Most of the money is going towards the car! aha =) I'll upgrade eventually.

Thank you! :biggthumpup:

Nice, clean canvas to start with! Can't wait to see what you come up with.

[QUOTE=vipv35;467259]Man that interior is so fresh![/QUOTE]

Thanks but thinking of redoing the interior...same color but newer leather :biggthumpup:

[QUOTE=KYOEI;467756]Nice, clean canvas to start with! Can't wait to see what you come up with.[/QUOTE]

Thank you! I got a lot of plans for this. It's dropped on springs but future up coming plan is picking up some megan LP's

so many options with this ride...Looking forward to this build

After a month of waiting, I finally received my parts yesterday for tune up, water pump, and timing belt! Thanks to Lextreme.

Welcome very clean! I love that it's so tidy! Well kept.

[QUOTE=speedaddict;467783]so many options with this ride...Looking forward to this build[/QUOTE]

Yeah a lot of options! But I think I have a vision of how I want it already. I'll keep updating every time I have something new to share.

That car looks minty! Fresh inside and out!

Very clean indeed keep us posted on your progress...

[QUOTE=Mugenman08;472975]Very nice car SPhoto!  What brand signal lights are on the car?[/QUOTE]
Thanks man! I'm not too sure :yahoo_39: This car was my aunty's before I bought it from them & her bf put those on. I'll double check tomorrow if anything.

[QUOTE=DD9512F;473020]Nice And Clean![/QUOTE]
Thanks DD9512F! =)

[QUOTE=levie;473044]it looks super clean man. i like the grill more too. exited to see what you do to this![/QUOTE]
Thanks dude! I try to keep it looking fresh. The paint on the grill is starting to chip now :sad: I need to touch it up again and probably put more clear lol

Thanks man! :biggthumpup:

[QUOTE=jbo;473114]Very clean indeed keep us posted on your progress...[/QUOTE]

Thanks jbo! 

Sorry people for digging my thread back up but after saving up for a couple months to a year lol I finally got up on my tune up & timing/water pump & all that important shit this car needed done before I could actually start building it.  Damn car is so expensive but I love it!! :giggity: Now that my car's reliable again, today I gave it a good wash and threw my wheels back on.  I've had my wheels ever since my first ls400.  These are one of my favorite wheels and i don't think I'll ever let them go....for now ahaha.  Here's a crappy cell photo. I wish it was more lower though :sad: But don't worry I got some goodies coming soon :biggthumpup:

Nice wheels.  I used to have a set just like them.  Remember selling them to a guy building an LS400.

Thanks! Are you the blue-ish 430? Or I'm totally off lol?! :pat: These wheels are my favorite model of the shallen line so I kept it haha.

Not quite I have a black LS430.  Great to see another Hawaii member on here.

I was close lol :innoutrofl2: Probably seen you on CL or something.  I'm hardly on that now, mostly on here.

what are you plans for it? what a nice car to start with.
