Had a few friends over at the house a few weeks ago to have a few beers and work on my DD. Excuse the phone pics. Cars are my '02 TL-S, Jay's '06 TL, and eric's 409 whp '03 IS300.







so we took this:



to this:







and edited for color



Injen cai, DDM 6k HIDs, Blox shift knob, R1 drilled and slotted rotors, Axxis ceramic pads, Skunk2 springs, Skunk2 struts, Blackworks polished LCAs, 16 inch Heliums in mag blue, Deevo lugs.

Not bad for a '98 with 212k miles I suppose. Rust free and has a/c too!

Had to show my DD some love too

 

Damn you're lucky. I would love to have a teg as a daily. Gas for the TL is killin me lol.

 

Moar IS300, please!
teggy looks awesome!


Tony, I just want my car back ;(

 

Damn how long has it been now? I have my car.. i just dont take it anywhere due to gas issues and no job LOL.

Yes, more on the IS300! Is it swapped?

 

Nope, its still the Lexus 2j. Just turbo and E85 tune.

 

Nice DD.

Does the black 3rd gen get pulled over a lot?

 

Thanks man.

Yes, yes he does. lol

 

nice dc4! makes me miss my dc2 with a J front. I'd love to have a teg as a DD with C8's lol. and it has nice paint for 212k miles

 

Sick little crew you got there with the TL(s) and the IS. How you liking the DC? I'm considering one my self and am looking for a low maintanence / trouble free ride..

 

your DC is super clean! So jealous, perfect daily! I would have been fine with you just posting the DC in stock form, classic. The rotors are a nice touch. Engine clean?


For some odd reason the IS pics wont load for me.. prolly my connection.

 

Thanks man, the crew is a lot bigger, but these guys had nothing better to do lol. I love the teg, outside of regular maint, I haven't had anything crazy. Clutch went out at 190k lol. Currently 212k and going strong 35 mpg. Mine has cold A/C and no rust, but thats not common haha.

Thanks, I bought it a few years ago from the original owner and finally decided to do a few things. Almost hated to mod it, its the cleanest around here. Interior has no rips or stains either! The engine bay looks great outside of chipping paint on the valvecover, but I am refinishing it the OEM wrinkle black in the next week or so. Also adding an OEM GS-R strut bar which will also be wrinkle black.

 

Wow.. Nice find. I have a feeling it woont be long untill you get extremely involved with car.. haha it would be hard for me thats for sure!

 

Its super hard since the car has a ton of aftermarket support. It was easy with my last DD (Infinity QX4) which has virtually zero aftermarket support lol.

I just have to remember, the teg has to see snow, and other things the TL won't ever see again haha.
