Nice pics Anil; looks like you have a good handle on the camera now!
Where was this cars and coffee meet? Is this a FB grp too?
Sean did a great job on your wheels, sean can I get your services on it too? I have been wanting to get my rims same color as Anil's!

If the weather holds up I'm down. I read something about bikini calendar girls...not that that in any way influences my decision to go or not...

Probably not going to make it out to FF tonight. Lots going on right now.
@awz05TL, possibly. Brandon wants some help too. Finding time and a warm garage is the problem. That and I have a lot of personal stuff I'm dealing with right now.

am thinking of selling my true dual exhaust....anyone interested?
here is the setup, RV6 PCD V2, PCD's have been ceramic coated inside out, helps in flowing better and reduced underhood temps....and true dual from there....the exhaust has been wrapped in DEI titanium wrap and coated in DEI silicone spray...this helps the wrap getting/catching dirt...
here is the exhaust note....also if you only want the exhaust no precat deletes, the tone will be deeper....I do not have any drone, just a tad bit of rasp between 4000-4200 rpm...if you keep the stock cats, you wont get any rasp, the sound will be a little quieter and not as aggressive...
EDIT: the little metal sound you hear is from the exhaust hitting my RSB...you wont have that problem unless you are running grease-able bushings...
EDIT#2: no CEL's come from the setup, defoulers will be included

You aspired and worked hard to reach the highest possible point. Some make it further than others.
But you made it to the top. You savored the peak, and after piddling around and realizing there's nowhere else more to go, you're now ready to begin your decent. Bit by bit, eventually reaching the bottom where you first began your journey, where it then becomes a momento of your past ambition.
I'll text you Saturday for the TD exhaust.

Chris, wow, that was very well written....Also since the family takes some priority, I was wanting to demod the car and look into something else....
for now I think the garage will look like TL as a fun car....couple people have called dibs on my intake setup (am thinking of letting that go as well, not sure of that yet since I would need an air intake and OEM manifold and swap runners. I do have my OEM TB)...the Lexus being the wifey's car and a Honda Oddy as the family car....
in a year or so, I would like to sell the wifey's car and get something nice....maybe an X5 that she has always wanted....
I would wait for my sports car and in 5-6 years if all goes good, a GTR maybe LOL....
