New to the group so here's the obligatory first post car pics!
This is my 1991 Toyota Aristo
Currently sitting at 63K KM, or roughly 39K original miles
Mostly stock, with the exception of a few small things like an Apex'i intake, new brake rotors to replace the seriously rusted ones that were on it before (along with brake pads), and some cheap 17" rims that the previous owner slapped on. I've owned it since late last summer and use it as my daily, and I have to say it's great. The sleeper aspect of blowing past people that don't expect a 30 year old sedan to have any power never gets old, but I can't wait to start modifying it to get those big 2JZGTE numbers everyone strives for.
91 Aristo 3.0V 48k kms. I have since removed the SSR wheels in favor of TT Supra wheels and have raised the car to a more reasonable height on the BC Coils. Also installed brand new TT Supra brakes all around with stainless lines. Other mods include a Fujitsubo catback exhaust, Blitz blow off valve and a Blitz intake. And I have a JZA80 HKS midpipe(front pipe), 3 inch downpipe, and a Greddy front mount intercooler waiting to be installed.
Snatched my second 147 last year. This time a 96 with the gold package. Current mods are just BC coils and 430 wheels. Plans are to blackout the guts paired with driftwood trim, aero kit (undecided which as of yet), paint, and maybe NA-T (but I may do something stupid like Nagata-san).
that thing is slammeeeed. I recomend cutting/extending your driver-side fender harness being that low. Nice car!!! Even stock body these first gens look so good.

Thanks. Bought the coils used and didn't bother to height set them before installing. Going to have her brought up about an inch when I finally get around to alignment.

Fluffy:
Hey man, I just got my own JZS147 and planning on going the SC430 wheels way.
I am going on the Kayaba and RSR springs way. Are you using spacers? Or do the wheels sit perfectly flushed just like that?
