New guy here in Florida

[usoff89]

Hey guys. I've been lurking on here for some time now, but finally decided to become an active member. I picked up a 93 LS400 a few months back. So far I am loving the car and saving up to buy some goodies from lextreme. Can you say supercharger bracket? lol, can't wait for that. My last car was supercharged and I miss the boost.

So far I have welded up a custom temporary exshaust, short ram intake, and put a set of electric fans on it. Yesturday I had to replace the rear brake rotors and pads. While I had them apart i went ahead and powder coated the calipers. I still have to do the front but I might wait until I get some TT rotors. I have a tons of plans for the car, but one thing at a time.

Great site!

Mike

Here's a pic of the rear calipers.

Welcome Mike, you ought to have a look at Ryan's SC400TT thread for some ideas on fans & cooling, as I think being in FL you're going to have some issues with the LS400 cooling system after you boost the motor.

Thanks, i will keep that in mind. So far the fans have done a great job, but it's just n/a at the moment. Hopefully around tax time next year I'll start picking up parts to supercharge it. I'm picking up a set up 96 cobra wheels saturday. Hopefully the offest will look alright on the car.
