Talking Newbie here!!!

Hi im new on this forum..i was recommende by a friend over on HotBoatForums....where im a regular...and since we just got a new lex and im gonna be doing some stuffs to it and have many questions...thought this would be the place!!!

I have posted some pics in member galleries...righ now i Dubbed it up on 20's ALBA Banks...gettin it dropped with Tanabe NF210 this weekend...and tint and thats about it!!! I do hae questions about the camber though...i guess there is no kit for it..the drop should do 1.5 in front and 1.0 in back...will an alignment do the trick??? any suggestions would be cool!!! thanx ..Frenchie!

youve come to the right place..these guys/gals have a wealth of knowledge, they're all down to earth, and are always willing to share advice, opinions, knowledge, etc. I've learned so much over the last year just from reading their posts everyday (and Ive learned that there's no such things as "that's it" when it comes to modding a GS! haha!). Welcome....

What up Frenchie. A couple weeks here and you'll be selling the Albas....
Concerning Camber, that is possibly the only weak GS issue. There is no true fix other than constant alignments.

Booooonjour Frenchie. Sorry if that was cheesy. Everybody have different tastes in rims. I can't say b/c I'm still on my dinky 16s but anyways, . I'm sure you'll be an addict like most of us here on CL Do you have pictures of your boat?
