busy week getting my new to me LS430 up to par
I'm feeling a sense of accomplishment this week with the LS430. I just bought the car a short time ago and im trying to get all of the little things fixed the previous owner neglected. Im waiting on the title, so no tags on it yet, perfect time to tear it apart.
The best part was most of this stuff was inexpensive, always a plus!
replaced the blown ML sub with the Polk DB sub- $55
replaced the surrounds on the front door speakers that were torn- $40 for 4 new surrounds
replaced the motors in both front door actuators that didn't work- $22
reconditioned the headlights- free
disconnected the annoying lexus link error message
fixed side mirror fold issue
new front rotors and pads- easiest brake job Ive ever done
installed some Megan LP coilovers
lastly, had the timing belt and water pump changed along with all of the fliuds
I'm in desperate need of new shoes before spring hits!

[QUOT]ahhhhh we here go ^_^
I retract my previous statement of giving it a year and raise my bet for late May this year lol[/QUOTE]
Lol, all general maintenance items Mike.....well, except for the coilovers. Who doesnt need coilovers though......and wheels, come on man, we all need wheels!
Oh, and I might have my boy Ben over at Freed hook me up with a little exhaust system....just a little roar!

bmore,
Freed Engineering in Millersville did the timing belt, water pump and the misc that goes along with that job. Anything I don't do myself, they do for me. They do great work, are fairly priced, and most importantly trustworthy.
They built my GS as well
When youre ready give them a call, Ben is the owner, tell him Jeff with the GS sent you. I dont want to get into what they charged me, but they are fair for sure.
