First post - :biggthump
So I found out about this forum from some fellow CO Lexus guys over on my.is (I was at the Spring meet). I have a few projects underway right now. They all move slower than I would like but I am hopeful to get something done someday ;)
-- IS300 --
My current daily driver - a 2002 Lexus IS300 in Graphite Grey Pearl (GGP); 5mt w/ LSD.
some of the mods:
K&N Fuel Injection Performance Kit II
OBX-R short runner header
Stop-Tech stainless steel braided brake lines
Hawk High Performance Street brake pads
Toyota Altezza rear bumper
JDM TRD rear valance / skirt
Custom subwoofer
Polarg bulbs - Red LED dome and trunk lights
TRD leather shift knob
JDM shorty antenna
other small stuff...
-- The Mountain Yoat --
My trail-runner / rock-crawler project - a red 1982 Toyota Longbed SR5 Pickup.
Done so far:
Weber 38 w/ K&N filter
Offenhauser intake manifold
Tri-Y header to custom 2 1/4" exhaust
D.U.I. street/strip distributer w/ Live Wires 12mm plug wires
Optima Red Top battery
Dual-roller (20R) timing chain conversion
5.29:1 differential gears
Detroit Soft-Locker in rear
Detroit True-Track in front
In cab roll cage
Bobbed bed (16" off bed, 4" off frame)
1.5" body lift
3" shackle lift
35 x 12.50 BF Goodrich All-Terrains on 15x10 black steelies
Decent wheeler with LOTS left to do...
-- Custom Ironhead --
My 2-wheel hot rod. A custom bobber built from a basket case.
Mostly an Ironhead Sportster but built to my taste.The frame is from a 1972 Harley-Davidson Sportster. The front fork and front and rear axles are from an 80s Sportster. The motor is out of a '73 Sporty but has since been stroked to 74 inches (~1212cc), converted to a belt drive primary, had close ratio gears slapped into a reinforced case and generally massaged up to it's true potential. The rest of the bike is pretty much aftermarket; twisted spoke rear wheel, rear disk brake, round can oil tank, porkster gas tank, bobbed rear fender, drag pipes, drag bars, forward controls, gunslinger seat, tiny turn-signals, etc...
-- Magnum --
My wifes car; 2007 Dodge Magnum R/T AWD
We pulled the door bumpers and badges off, low on my priority list but she wants to do some stuff to it...
Anyway - hello everybody!
