Since Im sort of new here...Ill put up some info about my Imported 92 Soarer. I imported it about 2 yrs ago, it was stock with a 1Jz-GTE twin turbo motor w/ auto trans. I added leather interior, Eclipse deck and CD player, some Sparco Torino seats, carbon fiber interior pscs, Blitz Dual SBC controller, and Greddy Peak hold boost gauge, and tinted the windows. For suspension, I installed a TEIN HA adjustable strut-coil over kit and dropped it 2.5" (but soon will be installing a Canover air-ride strut kit) and now using some Linea X 18x10 rears with 18x9 front wheels (295-30-18 Toyos & 255-35-18 tires) Cross-drilled rotors, Carbon fiber brakepads, and an billlet style upper strut bar. Body kit currently is a Do-Luck rear wing and bumper, with a T&E sideskirts and front bumper cover. Engine mods: converson HKS TO4X single turbo, 3" downpipe into a pair of 3" Hayama stainless mufflers, 440 injectors, K&N cone filter, HKS Twin-Power, Blitz large-mount front intercooler, HKS F-Con IV, HKS cams, and run between 10-22 psi of boost
depending on the situation. Cars runs beautiful, and at the track 1300 ft elevation, 80 degree heat the car ran
low 13's @ 107 mph...the 60 ft times blew, and I know I could get into the 12s with proper launching. I also have a ART CARR built tranny w/2900 stall convertor and Setrab tranny cooler. Ill be adding a ZEX 75-100 shot just for decreasing the turbo lag....
...I have some pics if anyones interested, or you can see some stages the cars been in at our website
(www.motorsportwarehouse.com) click on the gallery button. Or email me, I can send you some of whatever you may want to see. Ive owned a performance shop for over 10 yrs here in Tucson, and its only gettiing more busy! Thats an little info on my car...hope some of you enjoy seeing it.......I know I love to see any nice Lexus when I can!

cars they allow over, then after you pick one, you bring it over here and find a place that does the conversion..
avg cost about $8K....Avg time it takes for the whole process about 4 months.

hey...i think i have called you up and talked about your interior....the carbon fiber....did you have the pieces made custom? or is it some sort of kit you can stick on? i think it would look really sweet to replace the wood on the inside with CF...also...whats the cost of the wing, if you dont mind answering in the forum...

The interior pieces have to be removed and I send them to a place who puts a silk screen finish on them that looks just like real carbon fiber..!! The best Ive seen w/o making it out of the real stuff. they do their process and send them back in about 2 weeks. Cost for the 5 pcsc was about $200-240 I think plus $13 for shipping.
My wing is a Do-Luck....cost about $800-900 I believe....plus paint etc...dg
