Default New Parts

I have some new parts to put on my car, finally. I will update as I receive them. Some are coming from Japan, so it will take a little while. The first item is exhaust.

Its in pretty good shape. If I can get a sound bit on here I will let everyone know what it sounds like. I also has an OBX header without cat. Got to fix my exhaust leak first.

I actually live in a tiny town called Cambridge, but its close to Winfield/Ark City area. I will post a sound clip as soon as my other parts come in and I have time to work on the car. To many other projects have priority.

Here are the new parts: The hood came form a salvage yard in OKC. The other three came from ebay. The tail lights has a black vinyl wrap on it, was curious on why it was there so I decided to start tearing it off, bad idea. Someone scratched the crap out of it. So now I have to swap my lens for the Aristo lens, which sucks, because the Aristo lens has a chrome ouline and the GS300 lens doesn't. There is no way to take the chrome outline off, it is part of the lens. The door seal plates came from a jzs161, but I have plans for that.

Sound clips/Videos it does help with how loud it can be, but the sounds are a lot louder in real life. Idle to about 40 is the loudest and after that it gets quieter.

Messing around. Kind of hard to hold the camera and drive.
