I was about to say, why paint decent tires? If they're bald that's fine then. Let's see how long it lasts.....

their really isnt any...i took off the door panels, i was just going to put carpet, cuz it cost me 40 bux at homedepot and it looks a little bit better. but ive taken the radio out, the pasenger chair, a crap ton of bolts and other stuff... but going back to the other guys comment no offense dude but if i wanted a show car i wouldnt use a 92 lexus it, would be something like a new lexus....

my first project car was a 83 celica gts, i sunk over 2500 into a damn 22r!. (bought most the lc engineering hard parts catalog). a project car is made to have fun with, im swapping a vg30 (think 300zx) motor into a 240. why? because people told me i couldn't. and it was free. so basic points. have fun, this is your project. do what you want.

Dude, I honestly can't wait to see/hear this thing rumble on camera, haha. Don't mind the negative comments on here, it's your car. I still want to make an LS1 SC someday
