at a buffet, i personally sneak corndogs into the buffet so others can enjoy them. I hide 6 corndogs in my jacket pockets. it then, is a joy for me to see other patrons of the establishment eat my corndogs thinking they were part of the buffet.
This is dope, I thought this was someone else’s car you were doing this work on but happy to hear it’s yours. Nice little switch from the focus. This is my dream car currently.
Apart from the bondo job...on a budget this was super neat! You could have gone with fiberglass filler if the goal was to get it done quickly and cheaply
I think the wheels transform the car from a grandpa car to a nice well taken care of car. Lightly modded. Tasteful. Maybe headlights and taillights upgrade would be better? But overall great
@@noahfunny2915 You could just spray paint or plastidip the chrome headlight backplates to go from chrome to black and give it a modern LED look. Its a pain in the butt though. Also a taillight tint would be cheap too.
You are inspiring me to get my 2000 LS400 lookin clean the way it deserves to be Bro. Awesome transformation. Love the wheel choice.👍 Lorinser D93?🤔 Stunning ride. Well played Sir.👏👏👏 Peace to all the Lexus lovers worldwide.🌎 1UZ for life.☝️
Very nice build, glad these cars are getting the love they deserve. I have the SC400 which I plan on doing the same. Nice clean look and 6 speed conversion
Nice! Very impressed. It is cool that you put in some time to tackle a different type of project as well. Putting on the suit at the end was a nice touch.
I would suggest longer finished video shots. It’s like all this anticipation and build up and you give us a quick flash 5 second video at the end. Give us more!
Just a heads up maybe later down the road but they have replacement “chrome” trim you can buy instead of having it sprayed over. Turned out hella good man.
I've always wondered how these compilations are most effectively edged and then I realize that with the recent RUclips features you can see the analytics in real time which frames are most replayed so you probably went through each original episode and cut only the most freeze frame shots, Unused those ingenious I might say but something that wouldn't have never been possible 5 years though even.
This was a great video. The car was an excellent choice and everything that went on and into this was top notch. Maybe upgrade the ball joints next? But she sittin clean AF and pretty too. 🎉🎉
I always had a soft spot for these square body Lexus. they were way ahead of their time. I like that you kind of kept the rims period correct cause those were popular back in the day. Very nice. I was a little disappointed in that fender repair. I know it's a budget and all but how much could a new 20+ year old Lexus fender be? Then I saw you wrapped it, and I wasn't as disappointed cause it kind of made sense but... I still wouldn't have done a better repair regardless. And I know you can 100% have done better which is why I'm saying something
I don’t ever watch videos over 10mins. This one was worth it. And motivated me to sell the 3GS and get a 430 to VIP. Such a Beautiful LS400 bro. Might have to sub if you do these. Amazing video. 🍻
@@SmplBuilds therefore the vanes are not deciding the direction of the rotors in your case, but the holes and grooves direction should aim at using cetrifugal force to evacuate gases and dusts don't you think ?
Went from being a 70 year old grandma who drives this thing to Bingo night to a rich Japanese street racer who drives it to and from the local performance shop and his personal garage. edit: Japanese Nissan Cima's and Lexus/Toyota Celsior's are pretty affordable too. You can pick them up from local import dealers for $8,000 to $15,000 depending on the condition and miles. A RHD VIP build would be insanely dope to take to a car meet. If done as good as this you would have the whole parking lot around your build.
Love this! Similar how I want mine stance wise. Not a scrappy boi aha. Was the wrap glittered? Mirrors looked solid black. If you wanted matching, Nissan Mica black is exact match. Same sun reflecting etc. Awesome though man what's next?
Like my 3rd time watching the video beautiful transformation I have a gs300 you guys give me hope I would wanna make a video like this to show the progress rn she is down bad but Imma get my baby vip certified
Car turned out sick bro: from motor, to body to painting the trim, you did some nice work, you must be so proud!
Thanks so much bro!!

Sir
Something is wrong with you but that is hilarious 😂
Laughter is the best medicine
My favorite food to eat at a Chinese buffet is the Chinese pizza and French fires.
I eated one of them hot dogs. It was 😋
Your videos inspire people’s creativity.
It's definitely got that late 90's hip-hop feel. 🔥
This car hauls ass. I remember my cousins dad had one ooof shit see yahhhh!!
Beautiful finished project, loved following the build.
This is dope, I thought this was someone else’s car you were doing this work on but happy to hear it’s yours. Nice little switch from the focus. This is my dream car currently.
Looks great, it would be cool to see it even more VIP'd out with like the fancy curtains and interior jobs you see sometimes haha
well since it is a budget build, that is quite optimistic, but i see where ur coming from
love the ls custom interior designs
None of that please 😶
Especially a chandelier

I agree it’d look flawless with new head/taillights

@@evil1stare they projectors?
I could watch people restoring these Japanese Luxurious cars all day. Very well done.
Looking to buy one myself and follow this build to make mines look clean

The flow and editing of this video is top tier, I could watch this all day regardless of the content!

Turned out amazing! I see loads of cars like this one every day and imagine myself doing this.

Its incredible how you did all this in 10 minutes
💀
Great video! I loved the way the car turned out. Did it bother anyone else that the calipers and control arms didn't seem to get painted black?
I think the best way to have a nice car is to keep it looking nice. Very good job, love what you did to it.
cool to see people watching a sick build and no one complaining about it being auto
I personally would leave the paint original
I could see the original color but the paint was in terrible condition
This boat is freaking fire man, love the build
This is definitely a dope and inspirational build. Makes me that much more motivated to do my next two projects
Your ride is pimp bro. I just got my 2000 LS 400 in Imperial Jade Mica. Love it! Little by little I will build my vip as well!
Car looks so dang good man! Well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Уважение таким парням !!=) 👍 такую красоту сотворили, и обслуживание подвески и колёса новые классные!!
This video really inspired me to get one and create a clean build for these kind of cars it looks great ❤
these are good cars. i have a 1996 that i got for $4,000 in 2017 and i have daily driven it ever since.
Just a heads up maybe later down the road but they have replacement “chrome” trim you can buy instead of having it sprayed over. Turned out hella good man.
Really? Where do they sell this?
The black looks way better than chrome
Loving the contents brotha keep them coming we will keep supporting 💯👌
Respect on trying to fix that body damage.
Looks dam good, you can't ever go wrong with an LS

I want to buy one of these, they look soo cool and not outdated they just look classic and not too like an old people car
Wow this is some amazing work! The car turned out wonderfully ♥️
this video was mad dope, good job👍🏽
Yeah you killed it bro. that is 🔥 10/10 best vip budget build, I’m inspired
This was a great video. The car was an excellent choice and everything that went on and into this was top notch. Maybe upgrade the ball joints next? But she sittin clean AF and pretty too. 🎉🎉
Please sand and wash and wrap/paint the calipers next time would complete the build even more great vid as always
that first background beat was bumpin bumpin fr
Still crazy you picked this up for 2k!
You killed this one man!
I want one so bad 😮💨 that build is fresh asf
Great stance and build is super clean!
Looks good! Would get a new left wing, it doesnt look to good, and maybe lights and window tint!
Great build man I know about JCC, I’m from NJ (Essex) and have a 90 LS400. Probably will go past each other one day.
Lil trick remove the floor panels and dye them it will make the interior look new
Super “ CHAMAKI “ 🔥
Love it bro, so clean especially for a budget build, great job
I'm surprised they didn't wash or paint the brake calipers!
Incredible job man 🔥
Came out dopeee man seen all of the vids on this build Fs came out cleannn🔥
Dude make an exhaust on it😍
Absolute fire, great job!
This is so clean! I’m ready to play with mine like this
Sorry it took so long to watch, I was at school, love the car, not the biggest fan of VIP but you did great on this!
Final product is amazing good job
The original two tone green is also a good color
If I found a green LS I would definitely keep it green. Contrasted with the grey lower it looks sweet.
Bro do me a favour and respray those brake calippers, will be cherry on the top of the cake 👊🏻😎
BEAUTIFUL. My ONLY gripe is hang that tree on the signal lever instead of the mirror 😂
BALLIIIIIIIIINNNNNN super great build man keep that shi upppp 🔥🔥🔥
Looks way better. I’d like to see y’all do a pickup.
Best suspension Sedan in the world

Can’t wait to see the projects when this channel finally blows up bro 👏👏
Gorgeous work! 👏👏👏
Bro just made a mafia car 😩 mad respect!!!!!!
Now, Elate intercooled supercharger plate and an eaton m112, maybe even a haltech elite 2500
Sick budget build!! What’s that I see a clear street downtown…Sick cinematically of it at the end! Did you go out on a Sunday?
That car came out really nice and not all race car looking.
That’s Lexus is clean 🙌🏻
Considering what the car looked like at the start of the video, the end result is really impressive.
a joy to watch
final results are so sick! 🔥🔥🔥
Loved the video! Great inspiration for my car❤

Nice casual brag about having the attention span of a goldfish.
@@HereForAStorm thanks. But, what were we talking about?
@Smplbuilds Dude that’s a sick Yakuza Build! Pure, Clean and Slick as a JDM build can ever get! Good job sir!
you killed that!!!
this is amazing and the only thing... the ONLY thing id change is some window tint.
5% all around and 20 on the windshield. Ceramic would be awesome
turned out super clean bro 👌🏽🤙🏽
Clean as always my boi
Now you need some black widow and wala 💖
Damn good work wish I could do body work like that somebody lend me their bucket car so i can practice
Nice ! Love the LS400's noise.. Front rotors mouting is wrong, you shall shift the left and right sides
The internal vanes decide the direction of the rotor not the external slots
@@SmplBuilds only if they have an angle compared to the radius, which does not seem to be the case on the video
@@bertrandpigeon326 these rotors have straight cut vanes...
@@SmplBuilds therefore the vanes are not deciding the direction of the rotors in your case, but the holes and grooves direction should aim at using cetrifugal force to evacuate gases and dusts don't you think ?
@@bertrandpigeon326 the difference is menial.
I swear I've seen this car on FB Marketplace, yes I'm in NJ as well. You're not asking a bad deal for this at all.
Turned out really nice man

That's fire bro
Personally i woudlve went with a fatter tire in the rear to help fill in the gap plus improve ride comfort but other than that looks pretty good
I would’ve put mine on airbags instead of coilovers but those are sick
Ima need you to do a single cab second gen tacoma plsss 🤣🔥nice build and vid 🔥
The claw hammer king lmao
Like my 3rd time watching the video beautiful transformation I have a gs300 you guys give me hope I would wanna make a video like this to show the progress rn she is down bad but Imma get my baby vip certified
effing badass build. Love it
Perfect show car and parked in garage 🙂
So clean 😮💨
