Just picked up the new ride Friday morning, here she is! Took these pictures by the river bout an hour or so ago:

















Its a 2000 GS300 Platinum Series, I started searching for GS's after I backed out of the Subaru deal. 11K and this is what I got! WOOT! I had a deck ready to drop in the other car, but since that car didnt happen, it will eventually go into the GS, but for a stock audio system, it hits pretty good (sound quality wise at least) I never knew that GS300 came stock with an 8" sub LOL I didnt take any pics of the trunk, I have about a good 150 cans and bottles of soda and water back there for my office's "snack shack" It help drop the rear a little, makes it look pretty nice.

So Yuta, any suggestions on 19's? I might look at getting some Agio's, but they're pricey and I dont feel comfortable rolling around Sac with them on. My other choice were those Privat Netz, what you think bro?

 

awesome! I think the sc430 wheels would look nice on there

 

nice man im not to into the VIP thing but i know you will like it. so yea some really agressive wheels, airbags slammed to the floor and maybe if your up to it get a 2jzgte or boost the stock 2jzge. my buddy is selling a 2jzgte from an Aristo for $1500 too bad u live in cali id help you swap it

 

DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!

You know I would be all over that GTE! But no airbags, I just want a nice ~1" drop and Im good.

Thanks for the suggestion Spence, imma look up those wheels and see how they look LOL

 

oh man very nice. seems like the RL has some competition!

 

i had a gc8, so responsive... quick too... i like me a quick suby.

 

dude.

BMW M6 wheels.

i know a place that sells for $1000 a set.

 

those are HAWT! Only thing cooler than those are the Ronal Bear wheels.

 

Once again, my brother Yuta comes through!

But now I gotta wait for my tax return... used my excess cash on Insurance... =(

 

Ok, I just did a quick search and I just realized that the M6 bolt pattern is a 5x120 instead of 5x114.3... Does the place you go to offer them with a bolt pattern of 5x114.3?

 

if you look in the pic it appears hes only running 4/5 lug nuts, maybe he had to do some modifying to make em work

 

you can actually order the spacer adapters.

ron has them on his Q to fit his 7 series wheels. (which looks ****ing awesome btw)

the place that i know of obviously sells replicas and so im not exactly sure on the sizing, but from brief research i see that they are available in 19x9.5 +17, but to the point, for dope *** fitment you would need a spacer anyways as i would personally love it if you ran 205/40s or possibly 215/40s all around.

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

 

Id do like 225 LOL

Im scared running too thin of a tire LOL

Oh and answer your phone Yuta! LOL

 

whoops i meant +20.

and ive been running 205/40 on a 9.5 for like ever, on the front of my 240 and i drive it every day after school on the local mountain.

trust me, you'll be fine.

225 is not going to look good.

 

True, but then with this heavy of a car, and as big of a car, I feel more comfortable with the wider tire.

The stretched out look is sick as ****, but I dont want to compromise the grip... know what I mean?
