hola again, congrats on picking up lexkost's old setup. knowing him those things were prolly babied as well as claybar'd, compounded, and overall washed with water once every blue moon :dance:
actually yeah...super clean. Kinda soft for what Im used to but great deal over, he hooked me up. Looking forward to some coil overs in the next few months and need to cut some holes for the UCA's...Did the polyurethane strut rod bushings this weekend and that helped the front a lot, just need to get to the rear axles and carrier bushings.Thanks
looks good. nice stretch in the rear.
nice ride
do you want a junction produce 3 pc wing? Pm me if you're interested... clean ride btw...
i LIKEY ... one of these days.. I would like to get a 97+ and mod it
just tinted..thought i'd share some pics [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/157784d1258931654-post-any-pics-you-have-of-modded-ls400s-picsofls400andchest-016.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/157786d1258931654-post-any-pics-you-have-of-modded-ls400s-picsofls400andchest-013.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/157785d1258931654-post-any-pics-you-have-of-modded-ls400s-picsofls400andchest-019.jpg[/IMG]
Looks good! Can't wait to see a drop on it!
I'm a total Lexus head (CL screen name Lex-Fiend). I passed up on a gry/gry LS4 for $4200. Instead I put the $4g's down on my Q, and I seriously regret it, only because the Q is super expensive to mod. Good luck with your build, i'll check it out here and on CL.
yeah...i need some coils but it's got a drop on eibach with bilsteins on the low perch setting. Definately missing having coilovers. My 1gs was totalled so I bought this a few weeks back and trying to get in the game asap but on a budget.
WOW, you're my O.C. twin. lol. Well, besides the wheels. Mine still got stockers on it. But i'll post pics probably next week after I dump it. :D
Yeah...I would like to see pics and be sure to mention the suspension set up.
well i'm throwing on d2racing coils on it. I had those on my 98 and they were perfect. And they only cost me $890 shipped. :) Here's my old cars stance with them. [IMG]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a100/shonn206/ls20.jpg[/IMG]
Nice...I need to chrome my door handles down the road I'm thinkin'. Not a big fan of chrome but chrome door handles are sweet looking...how do megan and bc coilovers compare to what you have.
lowering springs and coilovers should never be almos the same ride height! [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/157785d1258931654-post-any-pics-you-have-of-modded-ls400s-picsofls400andchest-019.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a100/shonn206/ls20.jpg[/IMG]

Love that color combo.. it's why I chose mine. And I see you too were cursed with those nasty 90's gold emblems. [QUOTE=Shonn;284862]well i'm throwing on d2racing coils on it.

I took the d2's off of that car, and they are now on mine. The dude was trying to sell me that grill, and I was like, "How am I supposed to fit that on mine?"
"how do megan and bc coilovers compare to what you have. " Alex...I meant how do the D2's compare to megan and bc's. I fully understand how coilovers work and compare. Just asking about differences in the brands...Got my Megans and put them in last Sun, will be posting pics soon. The car has a ridiculous stance and fitment now
i like it . the stance and everything . i got my 97 ready to go. papers signed. just have to pick it up .

He got the sh!t repo'd. :pat: So yea that car is long gone. As for the ride height, I didn't have time to pull the fenders, the rear wheels were 19x10 +8. My next car will be tucked. :biggthumpup:
i believe megan and d2 come from the same factory, for whoever was asking
The LS is looking good man! Keep us up to date on progress
Updated pics with Megans [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/160538d1262137872-post-up-recent-pixs-of-ur-car-ls400withmegans-008.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/160539d1262137872-post-up-recent-pixs-of-ur-car-ls400withmegans-010.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/160540d1262137872-post-up-recent-pixs-of-ur-car-ls400withmegans-012.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/ls400/160541d1262137872-post-up-recent-pixs-of-ur-car-ls400withmegans-009.jpg[/IMG]
Niceeee dude, I am feeling that drop!!
cant go wrong wid megans..
good looking stance :biggthumpup:
Are those Megans all the way down or do you still have room to go lower?
Not all the way down...Still more room but it keep hitting my fenders in front when I go up driveways and I like the comfort of 35 series tires right now, so Im gonna stay away from 30's. It rides pretty amazing. Did Poly on front strut rod, rear trailing arm and rear carrier bushing replacements so its nice and firm.
go alittle lower and the stance will be perfect.
nice! what size tires are you using?
225/35/20 fronts 255/35/20 rears Nitto Nt555
Drop it more Too high
just got the rears down about half an inch and the megans bottomed out on adjustability and the front fenders are bent from being too low...I need to do a flare and cut holes for the uca's but I am happy with it like this for now. I can do 30's on the front but I got a harsh ride on my 1gs when I had 30 series tires. When I go air, I might try lower than what it is but it maxed. Kinda looks high because of the 20's.
Lookin good so far. I'm droppin mine this friday on D2s' again. I'll post up pics after I get it done. You got me on the wheels though. lol. I'm rollin stock. haha.
Well here it is so far. After 3 months from stock. Still pretty stock but I like it. And I know I know, it needs to be lower. BUT, I decided to wait to lower it more until I get my lip kit. So I can see how much lower I can go with the lip kit. And, for those of you that were interested to see what the 5-star 350z wheels look like on an LS, there ya go. Oh yea, and before any of you flame me for getting the 350z wheels, I got them for DIRT cheap with tires from a friend of mine. :p [IMG]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a100/shonn206/lsprogress.jpg[/IMG]
whatever happened to your '98 shonn?
eh, bad stuffs. But I have this now to work on. :)
wow...a mirror image of mine. Dont see to many this color. Looking good. I would say the rears need spacers but hey looks good so far.
yea the rear does. lol. but i think i'mma lower it more anyways and see how it sits. :D I'm clearing too many speedbumps. haha.
