Click here for a set of wheels I'm selling (16" mesh)

Current Status: 5-20-2009: I'll be installing Espelir springs/Tokico HP (Blues) struts soon. I need to work out the pesky camber issue, though, with an alignment and/or camber correction modifications, like Supra control arms or camber kits. Fixing the camber is kind of new for me. On my old lowered car I didn't fix the camber and my tires had a lot of uneven wear so I want to avoid that and get the most use out of the tires. Lowering is kind of a pain in the ass...sigh... I just hope I don't have too much of a clearance issue, especially my turndown tip. I might be installing them with my step-brother this weekend if the struts arrive in time.

Also, I looked into getting rid of the rattling issue from the turndown tip/cutout area when revved. I simply fixed it by tightening the nuts with a wrench. I had just been hand-tightening the nuts before. It seems to have eliminated the rattling. I am still loving my first exhaust mods I've done to a car of mine!

Mods: All-red/clear tail lights (painted amber), Clear side markers, Resonators deleted, Flowtech 2.5" exhaust cutout Y-pipe (manual) w/ a turndown tip, 19" Axis Supermesh wheels (Hypersilver w/ Machined Polished lip), Purpling tint removed, various maintenance and bulb replacement.

Future Mods: Coilovers, Later on maybe upgrade to an even nicer set of mesh wheels with a big/deep lip, electric addition to cutout, Clean body kit or 97+ body upgrade. My goal is basically to maintain a mostly clean, factory look with some updating/upgrading, nothing too much or crazy (except my crazy-ass and cool-sounding exhaust).

Cars I'm Watching: The upcoming 2010 Lexus IS coupe and the LF-A.
