The not quite VIP yet LS400.

if youre going lower im sure you already know the problem spots sch as oil pan clearance. i heard you could raise the engine a bit which will help. upper strut towers may have to be cut. other tahn that you seem like youre off to a good start. i heard serial nine are pretty good. they in the same country as me and i still havent bought parts off them yet lol

I'm going much lower, I'm just making sure that all the maintenence is taken care of, and everything is back to functional before I tear everything else up. I know I'll need to tuck the fender harness, and when the time comes cut the strut tower to allow the FUCA to extend fully. I wasn't aware of the oil pan problem but I'll approach that when I get closer.

I've heard nothing but good about Serial Nine so i'm hoping to share the experience.

White exterior with BLACK interior? My dream for a Lexus lol, nice pick up.

Whites not the top of my list, but a good friend convinced me that it'll be fine and I'll do good until I get a respray. The black interior was a huge up sell and made the car so much more worth while.

Maybe I need to wait until I do a few more things before I throw the SSRs on...

Averaged around 20mpg cruising home at the speed limit when I picked it up using really rough calculations. The jeep got around 23, so it'll be fine.

You'll probably get similar gas mileage too, so all in all, a good sub.

This is my dream build, sooooooooo it's going to be good.

Ahh, I'm jealous. LS400's are my dream car.

All in due time, body work is going to happen but let me get a start on the build first.

Think you might radius the rears too? It looks awesome on these cars!

Also that shell looks minty fresh, nice find man

Awesome is an understatement.

Sweet. This things are awesome!

Me too!

Love ls400s. Looking forward to progress!

This is going to be nothing short of epic, so hold on.

I'm in love! I have one which is almost exactly the same but it's a 92

Thank you all.
I searched for awhile, I really didn't want tan interior and a ton of the LS' I looked at had some serious issues. I got burned by a few sellers driving a few hours and they either no showed, or didn't really want to sell it. Luckily I found one, and it couldn't have worked out better.

Words can't express how clean it is, the previous owner has had it 17 1/2 years, and only out about 50k miles on it in that time. Leather isn't cracked, dash isn't cracked, no sunfades, everything electronic still functions besides the back light on the ODO.

I placed an order to do a full LED interior conversion on the interior and the licence plate area, and ordered my first batch of materials to give making my own LED turn signals, and ordered sequential modules for more excitement.

Muahahah.

All in due time, let me get the build to a decent start and save up gas money and I'll throw a supercharger on it.

Plans for the next few months:
Full serial nine arms, RCAs, and FUCAs.
PBM coils, around 28k /24k rates
19" SSR Agle Premiums, already have them.
Start my interior rework.
Debadge, and find a new grille as mines cracked.
