Just got my battery relocate done yesterday and i got brand new tires for the fronts. 225 40 18s kumho ecsta le sports, im gonna get the same for the rear in about a week probably. I also put 5mm spacers up front and i must say i love it, just gotta go lower. I also think i found the reason why my power steerings been making so much noise.





















And heres that power steering line.

Anyone polished there intake manifold by hand?

I was wondering if its just pretty much a lot of sanding, or is there more to it? I'm not talking about like a super polished look just kinda getting it started.

I was also wondering if anyone has the driftmotion intake manifold or any intake mani for the 1jz. I haven't really seen any on this forum.

I'm with him on the beard. Car looks perfect, only thing it needs is darker tint, fog lights and voila.

I have. Check out my building thread. Not that much sanding. With the help of power tools. I used the mother's power ball.

Ahh i see, so did you use the aircraft remover on the intake manifold before sanding it too? Or was that just for the valve covers?
