Default Bijan's 2K4 UCF - ATL

Here is the story of my 2004 Cypress Pearl ML UCF. I used to valet park cars. Every time one specific LS430 came in I would always park it. I loved how everything felt. The door close, the gear shift, the steering butter 🧈, and the comfort of course.

I had a 2002 4Runner that was heavily built but decided to switch things up. June 2019 I bought my LS430 from an old man in Superior, CO. It was the only one for sale that had a better price/mileage than the rest. 115k miles. Purchase price $8900.





Joining CL, and seeing builds like Shaun G, Kurshid, and Yann G... I mean, geez. I guess I'll join in 😆


The day I brought her home.

For it being a 15 year old car, it needed an audio / tech update. I decided to go BeatSonic double din. It does kinda have a cheap look to it. But overall, happy. I couldn't find a non nav with low miles in my area at the time of searching.

Next I added TSW Chrono 18x8.5 wheels. I wish I would have just saved $ and got 3 pc wheels or badass monoblocks.

These def refreshed the look, but not what I ultimately wanted.

I wanted to make my LS a little more utilitarian. So I got a Yakima roof rack to carry around my bike and whatever else I needed.

My suspension has been approaching 130k miles now, and I don't want air bags at the moment.

I decide on TEIN Flex Z coilovers.

I found some Work Meister S1 locally. Smaller than I wanted but still an awesome new look.
