I second Valens, I been taking my IS there for anything I can't do myself. I had my brother take his FRS there for some work too. Nice GS by the way. I haven't done anything to my car for years now... besides keeping it looking and running clean lol.

As for Shaver, sounds like a nice and fun drive. I don't remember the last time I been up to Shaver, in the car, always take the bike. Good thing is it only takes 20-30 mins on the bike If I don't go to your birthday event Nathan, Happy Birthday!

 

Thanks John. I'm yet to send out texts about it. I'm pretty certain you work on Sundays right? If you do end up joining us, just let me know so we can keep a look out for ya

 

Nice line up i'm sad that my husband make it but his work schedule changed so he won't be able to make any sunday meetings/events hope everyone can make it.

Nate do you think you can make a list of the things everyone is bringing?

 

I updated the above post.


I sent texts to Fong, Bruce, Tou, Josh and Austin and got no response. Michael hit me up and said he and his girl are still trying to get the day off. Joseph is making his decision with his wife and Paul wont know till the Friday before. So as of now, we have 5 for sures.

 

nate thanks for updating the list see everyone there

 

It's going to be packed!!! I was there yesterday and the shoreline was lined up with canopies. It was nice to escape triple digits for sure though. We can just hit up the first marina resort area because access is easy and there is no off reading involved. Have fun carrying all our things down to the shore lol! Day can you bring your canopy also? Thanks in advance. Bring the fishing poles also!

 

Gonna be a last minute decision for me guys. Got to much things planned right and just went to vegas then just got back from sf too then in 3 more weeks got another vegas trip for brother in law 21st bday too then this is the weekend before all of that so might be to much for me and dough u know but ill keep u guys updated

 

Glad to see some central folks in here as well. Just sold my 500 whp m3, first and last german piece of crap. Bought a sc430 and now I'm going to start the build. Had a l-tuned gs430 (even had all the suspension, trd brace, srt intake ecu, borla exhaust, test pipes, blah blah) back in 2004 with 225 shot wet system. First one to squeeze 175 plus in a gs. 12s sec on 20s at famoso. With the sc430 I'm planning either twin turbo or sc, so I'll be on here for a while researching what have been done or attempted. Any good performance shop that have sc430 parts locally? Or a trusted lexus shop ( for maintenance) anyone recommends? Thanks and hopeful there's a lexus cencal meet. Btw who here has a turbo is300 silver that keep getting beat by my m3 (harassed me on blackstone) and then by my boys white s500? That was fun lol.

Hey welcome Blackrain! Nice collection of cars you've had there We'll definitely get a mini meet going so you can meet our local members.

I for one dont know any local shops that would have parts like that locally. Searching these forums will help you A LOT! Club Lexus has everything you need and very helpful members. Hope to catch you soon, we'll keep in touch.

You're more than welcomed to join us on our trip to Shaver Lake, but being that you're new, not sure if you're down for something like that with people you dont know But you are invited Shoot me your cell number, I usually keep in touch through texts for upcoming events.

 

I plan to roll up for at least part of the day, as of now no wifey/kiddo though. What shall I bring Nathaniel? I got that Gatorade powder??!! Haha, just lemme know.

 

Bring what you like bro. Its a BBQ, so bring accordingly. If you come later in day, we'll probably be done eating though. Maybe desert.

 

Sadly I'm running into some troubles and theres a chance I can't go :/ I'll know for sure about mid week. I should have made it for the 18th, oh well...

 

I be out on Blackstone cruising just installed 150 shot wet system in the sc430. Just that mod alone I should be 400+\- whp. Just in case I run in to trouble. Lol. See you guys if anyone coming out.
