Default Any "tricks" for 1st Gen GS300?

I have a 94' GS300, recently there was a post concerning little tricks about the car, such as the windows going down when you turn the key for 5 sec, etc, but that applied to the newer model. So are there anythings like that for the 1st gen. owner?

some of those "tricks" are actually came from the user instruction. If you have one, you can spend 30 min to read thru that. That was the first thing I did when I got my car.

Or.... you can ask Lexus rep.

mcnelson,

What kind of turbo are you running? I know it is Garrett... I'm interested in the compressor wheel trim, A/R, p or Q trim.

I have the Tein NA, they are pretty darn stiff. I sucks driving in Milwaukee. Turbo is an F-Max kit with the upgraded Garrett/Turbonetics turbo.

Mcnelson, where did you purchase your clear corners from? Was it online?
