Default 1998 Gs 400 Pics

Hey guys I have never posted pics of my car , so here is a link to pics of it.

http://mysite.verizon.net/respzubo/

As you can see it looks almost completely stock. With the exception of grill, lowering, and rotors.

Looks very nice, bet the handling is good too. What's next? I think new rims would make a very nice statement. BTW, I thought L-tuned springs were only about a 20 mm (less than 1") drop. You didn't mention shocks, did you just stick with the stock? I understood that the stock shocks did not hold up for very long with the added stress of running on the upgraded springs.

thanks guys lol actually I just found out today when I got my car from the service department that the car has lowering springs. I always thought my car seemed a little lower than other ones but I thought it was just me until i got the papers from the service department that said " Note: vehicle ride height is approx. 1.5 inches below standard factory ride height. Suspect client has lowered vehicle with springs. " So I thought it was probably the springs you get from the dealership, usually l-tuned. I guess not though. I am the second owner, and have had it for 4 1/2 years now.

Yes I am with you on the wheels, that is the next step. Coilovers too one day! Yes I think my shocks may have been put in too. Because everything still seems real tight not floaty at all. I will look tonight when I jack up the car because I'm putting my end link in that broke.

Oh yeah mark that is a weapon R intake. Works great too. I found it on the internet brand new for like 70 bucks, all aluminum.

You can get the kits at car toys. Then you can cut it to whatever size you need if you want to do double din.
