Lookin' real good, Steve. I'd say sit back and have a cold one, and admire your handy work.

Thanks i2fat.

The air is great, I think it makes the car look good when it is 'on the floor' and it gets me over all the speed bumps without any problems (the whole reason I fitted it).
Downside is that the ride is much too firm when you drive it low (ok on good smooth roads) and at my normal ride height it is still firmer than stock, but I am happy with that.
I still wonder if I could have got 'softer' bags, but I opted for 'sports bags'.

Best regards

Hi Ed

Thanks.

Yep, that is probably what I will do for the next few months and think about what I may do next, after the winter.

BTW, how did you get on with Issac, did it miss you?

Best regards

Steve

Thanks guys. Yeah I was lucky to find this car! Love it. I was at the grocery today - used the Luxlink to drop the top and start it up and had four people stop dead in their tracks to watch! She's a head turner sometimes.

WIL - that's the color it almost always is here in Texas!

"03 w/ 122,000 miles later and a few repairs:

new alternator
3 batteries
new radiator (toyota brand aftermarket)
the left visor just came loose so I removed it.
just did a major tune-up timing belt, water pump, flush, etc.

runs like the first day off the showroom floor.

I really like that kit with the TRD rims and dropped. It's aggressive but still luxury. Nice car!

Not as fancy as many others, just an updated pic with the pies replaced with twists. In October, my 2003 will be considered 10 years old but it looks pretty new to me. Still get comments from others about a "cool" car.

It's an SC430, you'd have to try really hard for it not to be fancy in any form. Nice looking car!
