Just a place to keep tabs on my cars build. Bought it in January with 100k miles. Love the color and the plan has always been for a simple cleam build, no stupid camber or being slammed. I'd love to go air with it but just cant justify spending the money on it.
A pic after the first detail. the first week of having it I did new tires, HID headlights and foglights along with rewiring fogs to work independently. Also installed a full system, headunit, typre-R component front speakers and typre-R rears with an amp to power them, new speaker wires, and a sub with independent amp.

Didnt have to do much to it other than new tires, new control arms and bushings in the front. Then last week I ordered a handful of things to keep me busy: BC Coilovers, Ebay brake kit, brake fluid to flush out the old, seals and kits to rebuild calipers, caliper paint kit, motor/tranny mounts, oil change supplies.

Justordered wheels so hopefully I'll have those on in a couple weeks.

Decided to roll the fenders before the wheels came in.

Thanks, Man. I looked at many wheel sizes and just always thought anything less than 20's looked small and I wasn't looking to slam it anyways.

I've had th motor mounts since i bought the car, but I just havent replaced them yet. Probably when i do the timing belt I'll do the mounts too.
