Thanks

Naw, not for me. Reliability and longevity are too important to me. I've heard too many horror stories. I'm gonna do an exhaust and inatake. If that's not enough, a mild supercharger, just a bolt on for a little juice. I am NOT going to take chances on this sweet engine and I'm not gonna swap it for something I don't full history on. Any swap I do would be a brand new, out of the box motor but that costs too much.

Not to go too much off topic and start any wars but I'm curious to what horror stories you've heard with the 1J or any Toyota JZ series for that matter.

We should bash the skull of the very next person who asks "what lip is that?"

or simply brand them the "CL lame-o of the month" Either or is fine with me.

Since many bestow that honor on me anyways, I might as well earn it by asking "what lip is that," though the answer is clearly stated in post 6.

Thanks Tony but I don't think I would call the G "just" a G35. It has an aftermarket front lip, rear spoiler and wheels plus a drop. Future plans include carbon interior, carbon engine cover, beefed up music and maybe some 20's.

That SC is sweet though. It's the long term keeper in the family.

Call Steve Ganz at Carson Toyota, ask for the Clublexus discount. If you can't reach Steve, call the wholesale parts dept and mention CL.
