Most of you remember me as Plain old Louis, the guy that worked at LG, and brought you the APS upgrades as well as a slew of other stuff.

I decided that working for the family business just wasnt working out so I ventured out with a good friend and started GSS a few months ago.

We currently hold the fastest 76mm powered 6 speed supra on boost alone, as well as the fastest supra powered by E85.

The car has gone a best of 8.86@160

Why Am I here?

The last 10 years of my life have been devoted to the LS platform, Im planning on continuing that as Its something I truly enjoy.

Here are some shop and event pics. We have been open for a little more than 3 months now, doing well.














Take care! Im going to post a special on APS upgrades here in the next few days

lol Na, that is an old pic that we took a while back, when I first got those rims... They have done some work on my car and I will take my car back to them again in the near future.. I must say its pretty awsome having a shop just 5 min down the road from my apt... lol And Louis wouldn't tell you any secrets about my car cause its just cam only car, nothing secret or special about that..
