Nice GS. Welcome to the club!

Are you planning on replacing the shocks as well? Those will eventually blow

I thought this car looked familiar. It seems that you have a project to do with this car (according to your post on Club NA-T). Definitely work on the suspension (no cut springs) before you do your "project" you will definitely need the suspension to be right before anything else you do to the car.

Wake up and smell the mango's buddy, were all posting on Clublexus.com not hondatech.com... Whats wrong with cut springs...? I'm a shade tree mechanic who like's to experiment with stuff I already have...

Check out my intercooler setup I did myself on my RX-7... Tell me if it's up to par with your standards, If it's not lets see some of your work...!
