I have tenzo gt5's, sunauto hyper voltage system, and an alpine deck... i recently removed the intake in the picture above and i plan to get the trdjapan drop filter soon. i plan on getting the black housing headlights, trd carbon fiber grille, trd oil cap, and an hks hi power exhaust in the very near future.

Welcome to CL. Car looks nice. Are you dropped? That one pic looks like you might need a drop.

the car is not dropped...im considering getting tein s tech springs to lower it about 1.3 inches and increase handling..the main reason i reverted back to stock inake is because i lost alot of lower RPM torque with the aftermarket intake... i love to drift and low rpm torque is essential for it... yesterday i cut a section out of the cam gear cover so you can see the cam gears.....i got the idea from my buddy with a mk4 supra..it looks very clean and the vvt-i looks sick. ill post new pictures of my engine bay soon.
