Default SoCal: Need '98+GS and IS300 for test fit@Tanabe, free products

We're looking for a stock IS300 and '98+ GS300/400 for a test fitting of our new coil over suspension kit.

Criteria:
IS300, or '98+ GS300/400
suspension- must be stock

All vehicles will needed for a maximum of one (1) day with a possibility of additional days/hours of testing for further fitment and retesting. Please be aware of this condition and your own transportation needs from Tanabe’s RD headquarters in Torrance.
Days of testing are July 7th-17th.

As long as there are no major problems with the fitment of the coilovers, you will get to keep the part as compensation.

Please give me a call if you are interested, meet the criteria and are in the Southern California/Los Angeles area.

Hey Mike, i think i met you before. I came in with my friend (Brian) that owns a honda prelude SH and you wanted him to test the headers. We were friends of Eddie (i forgot his name i think it was Eddie, haven't talked to him for a year since HS, he drives the silver Celica). I'm not sure if you remember me or not but i had the first gen gs, and your mechanic was looking at it. If you need any thing tested on a first gen gs300 (93-97gs300) let me know. lol.

We may need a pre 98 GS300 some time in the future. After the meeting today, it looks like we will be offering a suspension line to the early model Aristo

lots of companys in california always does this.
I knew a guy that worked at the Tein company out here in cali. and he hooked up a few of his friends with some damper kits.
Friends drop off their cars. they put the springs in, test the car out, then the next day, the car had a free brand new suspension.
