Figured i would post this here instead of the intro forum. For all interested...
So far, on the way home from buying it, i stopped by Raceland and grabbed a set of coilovers (they're based out of Utah). After getting those installed, i was pleased to find out my water pump was dying and replaced that right away.


Next came the wheel search. First was a set of Miro' STP 1's in 16x9 +15...yes...they poked quite a bit, and seemed a bit too small. So i sold them and ordered new STR 510 wheels in green 17x7 +35. Seeing as how i had 17's on my Lexus and still have the wheels, i swapped those tires over to save money. Well, they were 225/45/17...too wide and they rubbed the coilovers, put in 3mm spacers to compensate, and realized the tires literally wouldn't allow me to turn lock to lock lol. Now i have the large tires on the rear still and bought proper 205/40/17's for the front, still running spacers to push them out a little. So far i'm happy with it, but surely will be swapping the rear tires to smaller ones soon too, strictly for looks.






Inside, i just got a handmade wooden shift **** put in and finally found a decent cell phone holder lol.

Will be updating with current and cleaner pics soon, thanks for watching!

what did u use to polish your headlights? Get a shorter antenna, I hate the stock antennas.

 

love the stock RC car antenna haha, i used a kit for the headlights...cant remember the brand, but it's a yellow box. i'll post it later.

 

it's the RainX kit from O'reilley auto out here, yellow box with sanding pads and such.
so i think my coilovers are on wrong in the rear, is this right?


cause my perches sit atop a nut back there, his don't and it would explain my stink bug stance. i assume all his nuts are under the factory perch?

 

are those springs upside down?!

 

so i'm thinking of selling my xa, getting back into a lexus is300...bad gas mileage and all. just can't stand the leak it has every time it rains, it's underpowered, and i just can't pull off the stance i want. anyway, can anyone talk me out of it? lol

 

No, it's an xA.

 

hey that such a fresh clean car. did u sell it? you know they can have some good pick up with a turbo if youve looked into that.

 

Nice ride!

 

Any plans on boosting?
