Static and slammed GS4 from 702 intro/build thread

Hey whats up guys my names Paulo, I have been a member of the boards for awhile but never really had time to post up or stay on forums as much as i used to anymore, was always on Clublexus, Clubxb, and Scionlife etc. Heres a little introduction, I just turned 20 years old and I live in Vegas, I picked up my 2 gen GS400 about a year ago i believe around november 10 or so, bone stock 98 pearl white GS400 with factory 17's, and 10th anniversary aristo headlights but came from factory. Clean title with 211k for 3500, car needed some body work which was perfect for me. This is my first GS but not anywhere new to the Lexus/Toyota world so I knew what i was getting into with this car if any problems arise. 211k but the motor has been rebuilt at 180k, Timing and waterpump had been done about a week or two before i purchased the car as well as a new battery and interior i would say was a 7/10 so i was satisfied with that. Car had its bugs like i had said, some body damage, some interior parts were just not up to par, car is 15 years old now so it was expected and I have very nice junkyards for that out here in vegas.

Here's when i first looked into it, I came to riverside to check out a black 99 for 4k, that was a piece of junk, waste of a trip, then decided to look around for other GS400's until this popped up about an hour before i was going to leave back to vegas, decided to call him and give it a chance. Drove up to Alhambra and gave it a chance and fell in love right away. Factory HID's, GS400, body was fair, factory 17's, and etc. I loved it, talked the owner down to 3500 and came back for it a week later!

Car hasn't really changed much, just different wheels almost every other week, I owned some Work VS-KF's for a good 9 months and never ran them, sold them after i put them on my car for about an hour. It was a long term no rush relip project, 18x10.5 +6 F 5" lip and 11 -0 R 5.5" lips from VR Wheels

didn't match the car in person so i got rid of them for the wheels i have wanted for awhile since i had my SC400.
Fitment on front wasn't too bad, could have used an 8mm spacer or something
Forum imageUntitled by PJurisprudencia, on Flickr

but as of right now I am redoing my current wheels and working on getting my 02 sensor back in and replace my knock sensors as my harness got chewed up or something -___-'

The car is by far not the cleanest, not the lowest, and not the most VIP out there but its just a beginning, i get $350 paychecks which goes to school majority of the time so I'm in no rush to get this car finished. One day itll get an Aristo swap and kit and respray, hence why i didn't mind the body damage. For now heres a picture of it in its prime.
