UPDATE: I am going to be swapping out my Tein springs and Tokico struts for K-Sport coilovers (adjustable, height, spring load, 36 way adjustable dampening, adjustable camber, pillowball mounts, and 7kg/5kg springs respectively) and ditching the 5sfte for a 2nd gen 3sgte from an st185 celica alltrack. The 3s will get a 60 trim turbo upgrade and most likely a Greddy Emanage.

AFTER:
One of the most unique things about this car is that all the work has been done by me. No one else touches this car. I welded up my own exhaust, converted the car to a 5 speed, and installed a turbo kit I designed myself. These days most people just have a shop do the hard stuff. I believe that if you want to really know it was done right then you must do it yourself.
