Hey Guys,
Thanks much for the props, It's been an ongoing project for me.......I wanted it subtle and still have the Lexus lines, Manaray and his infinte wisdom pointed me in this direction. You do have to be aware of steep driveways!!Wheels are Ganador 3-pc 18x8 1/2 front, 18x9 1/2 rear forged centers, Tein CS coil-overs, GReddy MX exhaust, the GB crossdrilled/slotted rotors we had going. Still need to adapt the TRD Supra TT sways now that it's back from the bodyshop. anyone in the Los angeles area I can highly recommend Bay Cities body Shop in Harbor City.
If anyone else is interested in this kit we can try another GB after I speak with Ethan and Manaray, hopefully they will let me do something despite the last go round.
Lets get a show of hands who is serious about doing this, depending on how many people we get will determine the selling price. Now that we waited and the dollar is taking a beating against the yen the price I'm sure has changed.................

For the past few weeks I have been saving, I'm ready for a groupbuy within like a month if anyone else is. No flaking here. 98 Corners are sitting on my desk Give everyone a month or two's notice and I don't think there will be a problem.

SC400onDubs, I used to, I was a die-hard domestic muscle and Buick Turbo guy, planning on opening a high end import shop at some point. I've built up about 25 cars/trucks/bikes for myself as well, lots of ppl on this forum have seen the pics, and made a few bucks on the street for a few years. I like to give tech advice to my fellow CL members, and the locals are always welcome at my place if they need a hand with something, doing a detailing seminar of sorts soon, beginning of August, a couple CL members will probably be by. Why do you ask? Steve, keep us informed on a possible GB for the AC kit, now that you've confirmed the quality, fit and finish, it's a no-brainer...
