Ideas for engine bay clean up and mods?
So I have a 1994 Toyota soarer with the 1jz in it and this summer I would like to do some mods to my baby I have bought some rims for myself that are on the way, and was wanting to get myself a strut bar and a rear sway bar. I was also hoping to find myself a decent intercooler for myself I was talking to my mechanic that's a big car enthusiast and was saying I could go with an ebay kit made for my saorer and it should be fine, has anyone tried them ? I do have my ls400 brakes I will be putting on as well. as for an engine bay bling im not sure what I could do I want to do a blue and chrome look so not sure where to start there ? and also would it be worth it to upgrade the rad? if you guys could give me some opinions or no of something I did not mention that be worth doing let me no !
Thanks for reading

For stock twins and so on, the OEM radiator and fan shroud is sufficient. Some people like the look of the aluminum one and dual fans, to each their own. They both work great. I would definitely put on the LS400 brakes, cause the stock ones in my book just plain suck. For the engine bay, go all polished parts where you can. I might would add blue covers and flex loom just to add a little to it.
There are many threads on this.
I say do what you like not what we suggest, JMO.

Idk if this is really a good idea in your eyes but I've deleted abs, Trac control, airbag stuff, a/c (don't need it really in North Dakota) heater valve and chassis harness rerouted just so I can have a super clean bay. Oh and u could do the chasebays booster delete. JMO.

okay guys I don't want to start a new thread , so I am trying to figure out where I can get a A pillar for gauges in my soarer, I saw a picture of someone with it in the car and I thought hmm I want to get that haha, But I have been trying to figure out where I can buy one for my car. IS there anyone selling them for the sc that will work on my soarer ? or do I have to go the universal route, and if I go that way what needs to be done for fitting is it a pain in the ***? and has anyone used pro sport gauges that's where I want to buy from :P budget right now :P
