Default Noob Here

I've been poking around the forums for a few days now....and just thought Id say Hello.

I'm very excited about the info I've found on the site, and cant wait to get started modding mine. (2000 SC 300). I used to own a '93 GS300...but sold it when it got to 110,000. Ive been lost on the Lexus fun for a few years (college, trucks, motocross, girls....etc). But I think I've seen the light again.

Gotta say that the "Tire Fitment" thread was some quality stuff. (thats how I found the site btw).I thought I had my wheels picked out until I saw the quality work on here.

I have a white (re-donk-ulously stock) SC....and we all know what they look like......So ill post pics when its worth looking at.

I'll be picking the brains of all the talent here.......so be prepared to be baraged with tech questions.



Love the site, cant wait to get started.

what ever you do DONT CUT THE SPRINGS you'll regret it. the ride will just be horrible you'll be bouncing around like those civics out there. just save up and get some springs it will be well worth it.

and welcome to CL

Im not a stranger to the "Executive Toyotas" https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...11#post1516011

And Im not at a loss when it comes to making American Horse Power. (more on that later)

I am however....seriously underhanded when it comes to tuners. I just want a Serious Stance.......the power will come later.
