UPS brought L-Tuned Shocks/Springs Hope to have them on either Monday or Tuesday, still deciding if i want to do it myself or pay $360 for a shop. Look good

FedEx brought Magnaflow Mufflers w/tips. Also look good, doing to have them installed on Monday

I'll have pics later tonight of everything

 

sweet!......i have magnaflows on my gs4

 

CONGRATS!!! just as a heads up if u do the suspension urself... there are ABS sensors that you are going to have to work around... if you happen to mess 1 of them up, it will cost you $500 each (about i belive) to replace. so its better to be safe than sorry... but i agree, $360 is a STEEP price to pay... u ever think about swingin by the dealer to see how much they would charge

 

do the suspension yourself but be very careful. and save that 360 for something else

 

You ready for a GREAT laugh... here we go!



2 Lexus Dealers Quoted me $750 lol !!!

I want to do the install myself but at this point in time don't know (Monday I will). After the 2 $750 qoutes the $300 for install, and $60 for alignment sounded cheap lol.

 

$750 to do what?!?!?! man thats a crazy price... even at $100/hr, you are trying to tell me that its gonna take 7.5 hours to install the suspension?!?! i think not... and as for the other place... do the install 1st, and wait like a month before doing an alignment. thats what i was told. the suspension is gonna settle a bit within the 1st month so the ride height will change. so get the install 1st and the alignment later... so u will fell like you saved SOME money

 

Do it yourself man!!

There is no greater pride than after working on your car and looking in awe after a job well done!

 

I was quoted $850 from my dealer in Denver lol.

I did it myself it took a weekend, mainly due to the cheap Autozone free tool rental spring compressors. $360 with alingment sounds like a good deal.

In most cases one have time or money but usally not both at the same time

 

That's what I am using, the Autozone tool borrow thing lol

 

 

On to the next mod way to go I hope you like them

 

Is it possible to get a sound clip after the magnaflow install.

1 from outside @ idle
1 from outside @ with a little enging revving
1 from inside @ idle
and 1 from inside @ cruise and WOT.


If possible. Thanks.

 

Pics, Pics, Pics!!!

How do you like the exhaust so far? Is it loud, or more mellow but sounds good when opened up?

How much were the mufflers?

 

Where did u get the L-tuned suspension from ?

 

www.lexus-parts.com, Got both for $439.79. Still waiting to install them, just sitting in my garage for now....
