Hi guys sorry I haven't posted in a while seems like vsc doesn't want to work in my area anymore? But the Coilovers are in bc racing, cars dropped about 2inches.
Would post pics but on my galaxy S3 and cant upload pics, or don't know how from a smart phone. Wheels still week or two out I hope?!

download the photobucket mobile app. I have it on my iphone & thats how i upload photos. then i just copy the url.

Lol I like the starter button bling. I've been wanting to get one :p can't wait til your wheels get here!

Here are some pics, freshly milled and a test fit.

Centers will be cleaned up and sent off to the chromers today =)

Over the weekend got my front fenders rolled (hammered front) and the rear shaved to make more room! Had Adrian do it from [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UZZzHF4yxo&feature=fvst[/URL] not the guy on this video but his brother, did a GREAT job and more then fair price!! If you want a guy that's experienced in fender rolling ALL TYPES of cars this is your dood!!! he lives in SD but comes to OC on the weekends and his schedule is packed I was pretty lucky to get in.

Wheels going on tomorrow! Here is a peek of the finished product

Looking good!

man i know it's a big ass car... but does anyone else think the wheels look slightly too large? dope car, dope wheels, just don't sure how i feel about them together.

its the tight mesh that make the wheel look bigger i think, but wait til the next photo some of those mesh spokes will be hiding under the fender haha

Looks so damn good!! How are you liking the new suspension vs the BC's? My sweet spot is around 12-15 clicks on the BC's

adamls2 i was on 5 clicks on the soft side, but the new sus rides pretty much the same at the same drive height too tucking tires =) im at 90psi front/ 80psi rear

That's awesome!! Do you have a pic of height you drive on? I want to lower my front some more, but I'm still rubbing pretty good... I think I need to remove the fender liner out all together, (I only cut about 3in in from the outer part in), but i'm worried about dirt and other stuff getting into places it shouldn't.

damn, love it!!! tucking made a huge difference

damn im still tired when i think about this install and damn day saving light time falls on that day hahqhq.

wow, you sure would fit in out here with the 22" cima crew and LS big bodies clique.

[U][URL="http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/member.php?23579-adamls2"]adamls2[/URL][/U]       This was my drive height when I was on my BC coilover, also same drive height now on my new set up front at 90psi rear at 80psi

yup face and lips

[QUOTE=BPVIP;488796]yup face and lips[/QUOTE]

Hey, what made you sell your F50 and switch to the Lexus?

Also, what is your opinion on the good, bad and ugly differences between the Lexus and your old F50?  Interior features? Exterior features?  Ride?  Quieter inside while driving? etc...?  Thanks.

Princeholiday

F50 = Much more room for aggressive wheels, powerful engine, love the head lights and the side mirror lights. didnt like the computer system layout and the instrument layout kinda weird placement in the dash..also the rear seat room is next to nothing for such a big car..parts are hard to come by in the state since the car was stop being brought over here in 2006 (last year model).

LS460 much smoother ride and the engine gets better mileage ave 20miles per gallon. Lots of room front and rear, also powerful engine on the highway when I step on it, it just seems to go and go=) parts are Expensive window visors $800 OEM Toyota REALYY!!! F50 $180 OEM Nissan shipped from Japan. Wheel size are limited 22-21 and 21 tires are very limited sizes and expensive. Sus in the Ls460 is complicated and arms are not usable with other cars so parts are Expensive unless you make them yourself. My F50 I used 350z camber arms and front Shock top hat used from a y33-M35. 

Hope that helps...

Nice 460 bro! I just picked one up myself, I cant wait to mod it. Keep up the good work

Looks great! I'm so close to selling the SC430 and getting one of these bad boys.

Little update I got the rear reverse light strip tinted =)
