New Here! Paging Leon Millette
Hey guys - I'm new here... I just picked up a 1998 GS300 in dark green/tan... I love this car - it's so very nice and it's RELIABLE.
I got it in trade for a:
1995 Z28 Camaro
A little bit of money
I got such a good deal on this car, it wasn't even funny... It's just now got 107,700 miles on it, and runs like a brand new car.
Glad to be here!
Pics coming later.

Hey guys! Of course I recognize my Acura-Legend.com boys; what's up guys!
Rawdog - you won't be disappointed - shoot for a GS! That's what I'd get!
I'm going to post some pics ASAP of my other cars, but it's raining here, and I can't even get outside for a minute without the weather acting up... maybe after the weekend? Who knows...
Thanks for the warm welcome - hope to get some things done to my Lexus ASAP... as for the 90K - the guy that I bought it from said that it was done, but if not, then I'll just do it. I flushed the coolant and switched over to Toyota Red (like in my Supra), and did some basic things (oil change, trans flush, etc...) so it's doing well now.
How can I tell if the timing belt/water pump has been done on these cars? Is it like the Supra? I can just do it myself, because I can do anything on my non-V V T I motor (Supra), so I guess I'll just do the timing belt/water pump myself in the future.
Thanks guys!

What a surprise!! I can only imagine what you have in store for the GS!
Do you still have the MKIV?
Look forward to seeing you in a few weeks

95Lgnd6Spd - congrats on the move from Legend to GS! I also made that move a few years back, from a very nice rare dark green Legend 4 door *6 speed* GS! Awesome car, but I didn't look back when I moved to a GS400. Love rear wheel drive.
Anyway, welcome and that's cool you can do all that maintenance yourself. Saves a bunch of money I'm sure.

Yeah, I still have my Supra - I couldn't sell it if I wanted to - it's got way too much done to it to even make it worth selling... racecar, ya know? As for my *new* GS - I'm thinking 19's (in mesh or 5-point) with a huge lip, and some nice suspension work... that's all for now... Later on - 1JZ (I know, some might scream 2J only! but, I've had some friends that have done the swap into MKIII's, and I'm honestly more impressed with the 1J than my 2J in the Supra... don't ask me why!)
Could you keep a lookout and see if anyone's selling some 18/19" wheels that are CONSERVATIVE; perhaps if you find some, or know of someone, then I could swing down there and pick them up locally, chill out, etc... my GS has a long way to go, but it's super-clean, and well-maintained, so that's an excellent start. Tell me your schedule, and I'll make it a point to get down there and chill out for a day or two!

Looking at your Supra, seems you know what must be done.

No doubt...I will keep an eye out.
You know, I just sold a set of 19s, but the classified tend to have some good pickings...check that out as well.
I was on vac this week - it would have been perfect had I known. If your email is still the same, I can shoot you some info. You should come to the SELOC meets too.....
Talk to you soon
