      Project Kaizen

      Hey guys. I just wanted to share some pics of my project. I bought the shell from TexasBob which included the Wayne Due front clip and the associated C4 components. Thanks to Ben Hermance Designs for the rendering as he is amazingly talented.

      I've decided to call this project "KAIZEN" which is a Japanese philosophy that focuses on continuous improvement. I thought this would be fitting since I know this project will never really be "done".

      Here are some pics of the 3 piece BOZE Toxic wheels thanks to Frank at Prodigy and Zach over at BOZE. Also the C6 Z06 calipers and 14" light weight race rotors from Gary over at Hardbarusa.com and a couple of SPC adjustable upper control arms.

      You have to put a Lexus motor in it to go with the name. LOL

      Kaizen reference is mentioned over and over in Lexus training.

      Nice change of direction!

      I think a twin turbo Lexus V8 would be badass personally.

      *LOL* I love project updates that contain the following phrases "decided to change directions" and "twin turbos".

      Cool project, keep us informed.
