it has been a reocuing theam on CL to complain about the lack of after market support for our vehicles and then ***** about makeshift ricermods to. but with all of the new guys coming in recently the sc might finaly get more attention. And hopefully that one mod you have been dreaming of.
I know if i could pick a cool product by a specific company it would be either an ings+1 body kit or a top secret carbon fiber rear diffuser.
What is the one bad *** product that you guys are dying to have for the SC comunity and your car.?

But yea, if this actually happened (I actually hope not) I'd go for a widebody(just a few inches added to each side) if some high end company makes one.

There are tons of parts availiable for the 300s.
What I want are parts for the 1UZ, obviously. Maybe a reasonably priced forced induction kit that can put the V8 on par with the turbo'd 2JZs.
I hate any kind of body kit, so I don't care if those get made. Maybe a way to change the look of the shifter area for the pre-'98 autos without changing the entire transmission.

They are not making any more of these cars, and these "new guys coming in" have just bought existing used cars.
If anything, the population shrinks weekly, if not daily.
Why would an aftermarket supplier have waited till now to start making performance parts?

just to clarify, there are widebody kits out for the SCs, and parts for the 1UZ are not really that hard to find... epecially now. with a little research, you guys can find all the internals you could ever want, headers that can be used in turbo set ups, and even adapter plates for the V160 supra 6speed. but, what do i know, i have a 300. ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
if i could have anything made, it would be sliders for aftermarket seats, because i love the big bolstered comfy, supporting leather racing seats, but really hate having to fab up some brackets and sliders just because lexus wanted to use a whacky bolt pattern to hold the seats in.

And ki_soarer i do agree with you . things like adapter plated and internals are available, and with a little fabrication and alot of money anything is posible. but it still would be nice to just order a name brand complete turbo kit. and also there are plenty of body kits out there im just saying that an ings+1 kit would be classy and good looking (given their history of making such kits) and that it would be nice to have one.

Scene: The sales office of a aftermarket-parts supplier in southern California.
Faint sounds of phones ringing and copying machines whirring in the background....
Sales manager: Well, those Mustangs sure are selling at a good clip!
How about we get those guys in tooling ramped up for a Mustang turbo kit?
Salesman: Good idea, Boss! And how about some extra---
The discussion is interrupted by the door bursting open and Lloyd, the intern, barging in
Lloyd: Hold the phone, Boss! I've been surfing the web all morning and bunch of new guys are on ClubLexus' SC forum!
They don't spell too good, but they talk like rappers, so you know they got money to burn!
Sales manager: Great job, Lloyd- cancel that Mustang order! We're gonna sell SC turbo kits! I predict a great future for you Lloyd; how about giving my daughter a call sometime? I'll bet you two kids will get along great!
Fade to black...
