I love those wheels in that finish. Everytime I see a clean SC interior I want one. Your car is going to look amazing on air. It's spelled "upholstery" BTW.

Thats a pretty clean grey interior. Nice wheel fitment. Im pretty sure it will all come together once those air cylinders come in. Im looking into getting some aswell. What kind are you getting?

Hey thats pretty good. Could you do it with the lip, kissing the fenders, and some negative camber.

Heres a pic of my cylinders, and tank. I also have a set of accumulators, some electric valves, and a pair of Viar 480's. At this point I have to make new mounting brackets, and install everything.

I like your plans for it. It will look real good once your done. The rims don't look bad and I kinda like the new steering wheel.

I cant believe the comments on my steering wheel. A Nardi Torino is classic PIMP. Since most of you dont like what Im doing, at least I dont have to worry about people copying my style. Not to say my car is 100% original styling, ...but, you know.

Btw, the car is lowered on stock supra struts/springs, right now. Could you imagine if it sat factory!

Also, IT IS screaming for a lip. I just cant justify spending that lind of money on a dang lip! I just put a NICE eurethane lip on my Honda hatch, for $70 shipped, brand new.

If and when I get everything else like I want it, Im going to do an AC kit. But, thats on down the road, if I dont sell it and get something else. My next car is a MK4 Supra.

lookin good. don't let the haters deter you. they don't understand the style.

the only beef i have with the car is the blacked out headlights...should have kept them stock, but if you didn't like them, then why would you have done it? lol.

if you get some eibach supra springs, it will lower your car tremendously, and will look beautiful. Since you already have the air setup, why waste that money anyways.... did you show this on VSC?

Yeh I did. And no ones going to deter me. If everyone liked the same thing, customizing a car would be pointles, and boring. Im a fan of all styles, and like anything with an engine.

Most guys like one thing. Me, ... I ride a crotch rocket, and an old school chopper. I like four wheel drives and lowriders. Lexus's and Honda's. Black girls, and white ones, ect..

As far as the blacked out headlights, ... I dont like them on my car. On some, ..but not mine. Im hopefully swapping my sister for her OEM's tomorrow. Theyre newer than '02, so I hope it will make my HID's look better.

Yes, they will. It will update the look of your car immensely. Good start, now focus on that air suspension!
