Yeah BigJoeD, boost is in the future, but probably not for some time, since I'd like to drive the car for a while with the engine stock and under full warrantee. This is also why there are no other small engine mods being done, since the boost mod would determine what would happen to the intake & exhaust, etc.

The interior stereo & Nav are being worked on right now, but the progress is slow and my hubby (RMMGS4) has been busy with organizing other CL activities in the NorCal forums, plus work, so it will be a while before the next set of mods will be posted.

I am still going to physical therapy 3 times a week, but I am recovering well. That, plus being busy at work have been why I haven't posted in a while.

There will be some more "secret" mods coming, so just hold on a little longer.

Hopefully it will be worth the wait.

Hi was reading this post and had some questions.

Your future mods are:

Coming Soon:
Touch Screen & Voice Command Navigation
DVD
Play Station 2
Video Monitors
Back - Up camera
High End Audio - Stealth Design
More Secret Mods !

My question is, Touch Screen & Voice Command Navigation & High End Audio - Stealth Design , wow! Would love to see this as I have yet to see a serious mod that would still give a nice stock look with the perfomance of a High End Audio System.

So I can't wait to see your outcome.

Also, how does that SmarTire Pressure Monitoring System work? Do you have any pics of that system?

Overall, nice car!
Cheers,

Sheldon.

Thanks Sheldon. Well since I do all the work on INDOGRLs car and you have a technical question, I 'll respond.

The stealth design is in some ways is harder to do because you "should" have nothing out of the ordinary to see !

With my time constraints, this project will be completed in stages over the next few months.

The design goals are:

Install aftermarket equipment, while retaining a factory appearance.

Emphasis on sound quality using Hi end equipment or "specially" modded factory pieces.

NO compromise on trunk space or bass performance, while implementing two 10" SQ subs. (How I will accomplish this is basically THE secret Mod, so no more info till it's done )

The tire pressure monitor basically checks tire pressure every few minutes and gives a visual warning when the pressure is low and an audible alarm when too low. The monitor will also undergo a custom install which currently has not started.

INDGOGRL and I are not much for talking about mods unless we have something to post, so please be patient. Once we have pics available, I'm sure many questions will get answered.

Thanks!

FYI: Here's some of the mods I did on my car to give you an idea of the kind of work that could be performed on INDGOGRL's car:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...183#post606183

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...216#post606216

If you have any questions about these projects, please respond to those particular threads instead of this one.

Thanks !
