Hi all.

Heard about this site from one of your members. Hope to attend some of your events. I have the same handle on www.clublexus.com. I am looking forward to modding and tuning my GS4 hopefully adding either FI or NoS in the future.

I am a Florida native, born and raised in Tampa. Only spent 5 years away at Gainesville getting my degree at the University of Florida.

I have been into cars as long as I have been into computers. I currently work for the DoD at Macdill AFB as a Systems Analyst. My best friend growing up got me into the car scene since his Dad restored and built hot rods and classic cars from the 40's, 50's, 60's. I traveled with his family to attend some of the biggest car shows in the nation.

I have been into modding my own vehicles since 1986 when I turned 16. Problem was always with not having enough cash to do what I wanted... same problem now (FI). I currently have a computer business away from my 9-5 building machines and networks and doing repair and ressurections.

I have a wife of 10 years and a beautiful daughter going on 3. That is where my Lexus came in. I was forced due to family to buy a 4 door vehicle and since Buick Grand Nationals are no longer the rage... JK.... I really wanted a fun, fast, manual trans (WRX) but the wife doesn't like stick, especially with the baby in the back asking for stuff like every 30 seconds.

If a 69 SS Camaro had 4 doors I would have bought that instead... LOL

I play poker about once a week, and try to get over to the East Coast (Cocoa Beach) about once a month to surf.

I am a Virgo.

My Personal Car history is as follows:

1984 Corvette
1988 Camaro RS
1990 300ZX 2+2
1992 Corvette LT-1
1995 Eclipse GST
1995 200SX
1999 Maxima SE
2002 Xterra SE/SC
1998 GS400

My family growing up:

Multiple Mercedes
Calloway Corvette
ZR1 Vette

See ya... How's that!

Thanks...

They are listed on the bottom of my Sig line.

I am down to the L-Tuned side skirts and grill to complete my L-Tuned transformation... these should be in next week and I hope to get them on before the end of Aug.

TRD has discontinued the L-Tuned line so I was very fortunate to get all these peices to complete the package.

The only MOD I have done that is not L-Tuned is a TRD front STB.

I am also hoping to Turbo this beast so I am looking into who can do what here locally... if not I plan on making a vacation out of visting SRT up in Maryland in 1-2 years depending on my workload... they do seem to be the experts on the 98+ GS

Geesh... you will get yours there... especially once your in service you will probably have enough cash to throw into the car.
