The info for bushings is as follows

TM Engineering
1129 E. Dominguez Street, Suite A
Carson, CA 90746
Fax for orders 310-537-6868 or email at
sales@tmengineering.net

The total for all the bushings was 354.50, shipped to the door.

This total included is for the Front Control Arm Set, Rear Control Arm Set, Sway Bar Bushing Set, Steering Rack Bushing Kit, and a charge of 24.70, for shipping. They come with all the grease you need, special instructions on installation and the proper torque pounds for all the bolts. Be prepared not to get in a hurry... It takes some time... Especially if some of your bolts are seized in the original metal sleeve... It makes it a royal pain in the neck... If you need the link for install, let me know....

The rims are real close. Mine has a little black on the inside lip where the studs go. Other than that they look real close. I like the way mine look and ride. I also appreciate all the compliments on my ride. There are alot of nice looking SC's out there.

I am riding on stock brakes. I dont like the pushy feel while pressing the pedal.. But I think in 1992 Lexus wanted a soft luxurious feel. They accomplished that.... My BMW 330i are far better feel to me...

I totally agree... I need to upgrade in the future, but I have some other things I would like to do first!!!! Maybe some Brembo or Supra TT upgrade!
