Default some pics of my car

hey,
i finally got around to taking some pictures of my car. its a black 92 5 speed. so far i havent had the chance to do too much to it, aside from stereo stuff, the 97 front, silverstars, no more gold emblems, 95 tails which i had sitting around from my last sc, which i like much more than the 92 ones, and some 18 inch rims...but theyre not really the right offset, ill have to get another set eventually. the car desperately needs a drop, and the 97 grille and fogs, armrest cover, and a .5 din filler plate for the radio.

i'm trying to decide whether im gonna do the 2jz-gte swap with one of those jdm motors, a us ecu and harness, and us injectors now...or get new leather and some coilovers, and do the swap later on....i really wanna do the swap tho, even though i know its gonna be a whole lot of work and money. oh..also gonna black out the headlights any day now..just been putting that off...

Damn your car looks clean, I say do the swap first. Even if your car is wanting a drop, it can wait .

funny...ive been thinking about powdercoating the centercaps to match the rims also...but it maybe be more trouble than its worth because i like the design but the offset really bothers me so i may get a new set (after swap). i'm in miami, but my friend lives in orlando so im up there every month or two ...and yea i know its screaming for a drop, would be nice if i could just cut the springs but i know that wouldnt turn out well...guess its gonna sit like a monster truck for a while until after the motors done

what offset are those rims , maybe some spacers to make them fit more flush with the fenders?

I like the color of your car's interior. I wish mine came like that. Let me know how your headlights come out when you do get a chance to do them. I want to do the same thing. Sexy Lex!

I'll be home in Palm Beach for the next 3 months, so we'll have to meet up. I know me and the Supra guys are going to try and have some kind of small meet.

I will look 100 times better if you drop it!
Also, get some front grill and fogs to complete the from conversion!
