Looks mean nothing if your embarassing our kind with a front mounted air intake...

My sc300 might have a total cost less then her rims, but my car can also run circles around her car. All show and no go = FWL

Ive been in this 'Lexus scene' and ClubLexus for a VERY long time. Ive mentioned before that Its not my style to make a post about every mod or every car that I own. People that have been here a while will tell you that.

Theres more stuff coming out about the setup (how and why I did it ) very shortly and thats all I have to say about it.....Simple layout & nice results when its running right.

User Name: there are people working hard to get out the vid and pix of the car that I shot with in California a little bit ago.....More problems, but we got good footage.

The car just got back to Seattle yesterday

It really doesnt matter how long you've been surfing the internet, what matters is.. your having ppl post in magazines that your car is turbo, when in fact, it isnt. Also you still fail to produce pictures to prove the fact that it is turbo if it really is. Pretty paint, rims with horrible offset (any good rim company should know the correct offset for an sc), and a FMIC with pipes going nowhere.. In the import world, thats called RICE.

All show no go? why not both? I can put a rush job on the 300 if you like

you need to relax with that ImSoSuPeRDuPerFaSt Initial D crap...our conversation is over.

no time for bitter little kids

OK all, I'm going to ask nicely for everyone involved in this thread to please be polite and constructive in your comments and questions. Knock off the name calling and insinuations.

Instead of saying "you don't have a turbo", ask politely to see a picture of how it's situated mounted on the car. Emerald has done a LOT to that car and I don't have any reason to doubt that one exists on it... and its certainly a design we've seen work with other models (David's LS).

Instead of saying "ruined the SC" say "not my taste/style". I personally like the car; engine bay and interior is very well done from what I can see, and the rest isn't bad (especially if she has some new wheels that fill up that wheel well )

Em - max sig size is 450 x 100, can you please remove yours or shrink it down please.

true true im sorry, didnt mean to come out like that. That car would be sweet if it was turbo, i just wanna see how its done to be so hidden. There enough sc "rice" going around (the widebody yellow one). and if this car is in some magazine making claims, provide the proof or dont claim something its not

Im not impressed....Im sure I'll be less impressed when your ride is all said and done. Cause its been done before...over and over again, by people that lead the way for SC300 / 400 owners.

- Please learn to read (in regards to the offset question)

- How long Ive been 'Surfin the net' in regards to building SC's? funny guy you are \

I'm glad your not impressed with my car, thats the whole point of it. To be as OEM looking as possible. That means all my hard work paid off!
