Default Some pics of my car...

Not the greatest, but some of the guys on SF wanted pictures, so I got some last night.













And one shot of the best mod I've done to the car so far...Yes I know I need to paint the calipers again, I'm waiting on new decals to come in.



I'm saving up to paint, and possibly some aftermarket wheels soon after. Then a nice size single!!!

Lol, what's up Yea 2jz, I see you found me on here.

Rapollon, I'm not sure, drop springs of some sort. The previous owner had them installed. I think they are blue if anyone else out there knows. Coilovers are in the future for it.

Thank you jadu, they are night and day over the stock brakes that were on there. I'm currently looking for calipers and pads to go with the rear rotors I already have to complete the install.

Hey Tomas, what's up man? Everythings holding up fine. I recently went through the front end of the car replacing the rack, both outer tie rod ends, and the brakes. It feels like a totally different car now.

What are you driving now??

that's what i been hearing about these brakes.. good that your getting it all around and painting it will definitely set it off.. did you have to use spacers up front?

Nope I was worried I was going to have to, but they fit.

I am going to put some spacers on there to move the wheels out and lower the offset some.
