Default going to good kid

The major reason for selling the car was to get the GS3 TURBO. The car is in great condition & comes with lots of nice mods. This car will require more care & upkeep but is worth the effort. GS3 Turbo is very fast & is a good platform to build a monster. At stage 4 this car is able to hold it's own against the GS4 SRT TT. For now I am just happy to get the opportunity to purchase this car. I will miss my old car cus lots of time & love went into her. My cousin Brian is a real responsible kid for someone 16 yr. & know that he will love & care for her as much as I did. I had him work for me last summer to see what he's made of & he really put his head down & put in a honest effort.

Bit - I did not install the TC or TRD-LSD on the car yet. It's still in the bedroom sitting on the floor. I did install both on my last GS400. I know a couple of memebers that installed the TC on the 430 & (NO CEL) lights turned on. Ask member Canaan (GS430guy). He doesn;t have the light on either. I got the install on GS4 at SRT by Mo.

DetMich1- Yes you are correct the LSD & TC are different for the GS3 & 4 's I will probally sell the TRD-LSD & PI-TC. They are both brand new in the box.

PaulGS3T. hhhhhhmmmm. maybe new screename

Thanks Richie. I can't wait.. This has been a dream for me to TURBO the GS ever since Mo had built the first Supercharged car way back in 99. I still remember seeing the GS for the first time way back in fall of 1997. I loved everything about this car style,power, & comfort(FUN). I feel very fortunate to be driving the dream car that I wanted way back then. can't wait for turbo.
