My new JP'd UCF20
Picked her up on Saturday! =) Some of you might have seen the car around, I guess it toured shows in the Falken booth for 06-07. It's been retired and sold to me :) Quite a contrast to my s13, I love it.
Specs...
2000 LS400 Platinum, Black Onyx, 110k miles, non-nav, non-nakamichi
19x9, 19x10.5 JP Scaras w/ 235/35/19 + 245/35/19 FK452s
Airrunner setup with two tanks, 1/4" lines, manual switches and 2 gauges
Junction Produce Destiny's 6-pc kit
JP exhaust
JP fusa knot, stickers, etc..
Pics...
I haven't taken my own pics yet, have a few things I want to do first... So here's the pics from the seller.
Plans...
I chose to buy this car rather than a stocker because it already had the majority of the parts I wanted installed/painted/etc. It needs minor things here and there, plus I have a few upgrades planned:
Tint
LED lighting
Upgrade to digital controller + solenoids
Upgrade audio, DVD receiver/fresh components/amps/subs
etc.. We all know this list never ends LOL
Thanks for looking :biggthumpup:

very nice..change the exhaust, if it must be JP then get the new style JP...the current one doesn't match the Destiny's aero, it's too aggressive (and will keep you from going lower than you could). Buy some spacers too. Maybe some new LED tails..grill maybe? Also might want to think about wither led corners or get silverstar crome covered bulbs..the amber detracts from the look...oh, and HID everything...haha (maybe a projector retrofit of some type for those headlights?).
Just suggestions is all..it's your car.

Everything you mentioned is stuff I'd like to change out at some point. I think the exhaust looks decent but you're right it really reduces the ride height!
I have a question about the digital controllers; I've just started researching about the DD and the Easystreet controllers... Are there any others out that I should consider? The manual switches are super loud inside the car, plus the location of them (inside console) makes it a pain to adjust. I'd like a way to program at least one preset height, and have that default height on startup, etc..

Eff that, leave the exhausts on. They look sick. Congrats on the pick-up.

Looks great!
I'm not one of those huge Scara fans, but I think they're very sweet on this car, they really complement the smooth look.
I also can't resist a car that can lay low like that :)

Thanks! Yeah, there're a few things I'm considering changing out after I finish some of the other additions/priorities.. If anything comes off this car it'll be listed here in the FS section!

Yeah, it was on both Craigslist and Ebay, probably other places too. I don't think the seller is a member of any of these forums.

Lucky for me! You missed out! :) I had been looking for Q's and LS's locally for months with very little luck so I started searching the LA postings... Found this car right away LOL. Seller was asking 18k; when I figure in what I paid plus tax, registration, smog, transport to vegas, etc it's over that mark. Good price IMO considering the parts and work that went into the car.

I prefer the Destinys kit over the regular JP kit. I love that car. If I bought it I probably wouldn't change anything. I love the exhaust too. They don't make it anymore. :(

You can consider Ridetech as another controller.

^ Yes it is, thanks. Any chance you have some photos of the trunk of the car? I'd like to see how it was setup; the amps and subs have been removed all I have are the panels (which I need to re-do a few of).

I love that car! I saw it up for sale on ebay awhile ago and really like the exhaust on it. Did they really discontinue this exhaust?
