Default Whats up guys, just bought a 98 GS3, my 1st Lexus
Hey whats up guys 1st post here, im from Minnesota and i bought my 98 GS3 with 99k about a month ago, and i gotta say that the 2GS has been my dream car pretty much since it dropped in 98. I already changed the timing belt and put some bump in the trunk, and did a fairly ok DIY chrome grill. Im probly going to be mounting some 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear MOMO FXL-2 rims on in the next week or so, i found them for 600$(thank you craigslist). I plan on slowly but surely doing some mods here and there as my money situation allows. I just wanted to introduce myself on here since im going to probly asking alot of questions from all you OG Lex heads!

Good to finally be a Lexus owner!!
Ryan
