Get the white one then let me borrow it for 11.9 months of the year lol.

Lol, the aristo normally gets parked up Nov/Dec til march/April the same will be happening to the next one.

Decided to buy a normal car, will see how it goes before the urge for a barge starts kicking in again.

Powerflow exhaust, new kyb springs & shocks fitted in December replacing tyred coilovers,18' alloys.

Just thought I would update my original hello thread,

The white gs sport was sold,
The mazda 3 sport was sold & I purchased an ls400 I have wanted a green one for a while but unfortunately it didn't have the black leather interior but with the mound of paperwork with it I couldn't say no,

I'm just about to reach 12 months of ownership & haven't spent a penny on it except for a d2r headlight bulb for the mot Friday just gone, apart from that it past with no advisorys

The reason my plans changed about modding it was I had my aristo sat on the driveway doing nothing so decided to throw some money at the aristo.

I'm still using the ls4 as a daily until the aristo is sorted..

After a good check over & a 30 min test drive I had to have it,especially after seeing this.

But a couple of weeks ago while mooching on another forum i found an artist & before I new it I went from this old pic

To having this done for me.

Which has since spiralled to this.

Just need to collect a few more parts to add to what I've already purchased & my mate to put up with me adding to the list of jobs to do.

Oooh what you having done?

mattlaw Oooh what you having done?
Rear subframe swap from the gs, with the aristo having rear steer it's a bit of a weak point
That's about it really new headlights, alloys refurbished with a bit of colour new tyres, uk spec supra front brakes service mot.

Cheers stav,

Just to add to my reply to Matt a good detail is booked in with a mate & want to give it a good road test to make sure there's no issues, one reason why I haven't committed to any shows yet.

And a pic I've found of the same alloys I've got with the colour I'm thinking of. Unless another colour/shade catches my eye.

It's in my thoughts, & probably better staying there for now.,
