Welcome! That engine bay looks brand new. I couldn;t beleive it had 150k miles.
to post more then 1 pic at a time, use a public hosting site like photobucket or imageshack.

that was the seeling point for me also.......clean you could eat off it.

has a few draw backs.....after i bought it i found a nitrious switch under the pedal and an arm switch in the console under the arm rest

but it freaking rips, wonder if anything else has been changed...like gears,brakes,cams, ect what is a quick way to tell if it has ls400 brakes?

sure pulls hard to be stock(imo) im an ex muscle car builder and a former 4 cly fwd ricer....

im all grown up now.....34 years old

photobucket is blocked by surf control

anyone have a valide proxy?

if your car came with stock wheels it doesnt have ls400 brakes. it would probably need atleast 17's to fit the bigger brakes.

You know what... I found a random switch in my center console too... wtf... lol

But the button under the pedal is for downshifting.
