so i was surfing the net and found this site anyone have any experience with them?

http://www.carpromods.com/products/D...94-2004&clev=0

its a real site just wondering if the of what they are offering is worth getting i mean a lip for 189? that sounds like a good deal

this also got me thinking, i dont see to many posts about mods to our cars, and i know we have sudans but still no one has a body kit or exhaust systen out there for them?

I realize this is a popular site which is great with all the activity, but from the glancing i've done it's not really performance oriented for the ES300 side.

Please no bashing, I know I'm new and saw a post on some of the mods with a few swaps which is great, but it really boils down to money. For at least the ES300 in it's day, I don't see many Dr.'s, Lawayers and such wanting to mod the sedans. They had the money to buy a true sports car.

So as such I think we would be very hard pressed to find after market tuners to make performance parts for our cars. Not saying there are none, but not much. And don't confuse "bling" items with performance.

hmmm, you guys been missing out

Yeah I read through your swap. That's a true hybrid, not a bolt on from a purchase from a website so to speak.

It's all about WANTING to do it, not whats out there. Hell, I can sell you a true OEM front Big Brake Kit right now if you wanted it. But I liek the Camry/ES as a base for tuning/performance because so few people choose to do it. Makes it that much more unique. I;m sure Cody (EEngineer) feels the same.

my swap? what swap? I didn't do no swap on my ES.

read everything and you might get more info.

JSM

So I re-read everything. You did not swap the 3VZ in, just the SC? Or were you just being sarcastic?

Sometimes I miss things.

Maybe with some mods. That Solara catback is fo rthe MCV20 chassis. You have the MCV30/31 Chassis.

so the length wouldnt work of just the angles on it?

Would have to compare. I have an MCV10 (92-96) and the only difference is the location of the hangers.

EEngineer

no no, i'm being serious. i never swapped anything on the ES.
i just bolted on the supercharger...but lots of supporting mods had to be done to make it work.

JSM

Gotcha. Still cool though for a FWD luxury car. What other true perfomance items have you found aside from any custom mods?

I'm a big Datsun 240z fan. One of our popular swaps is stealing everything from a 280zx turbo and swaping it in. Quite fun and almost simple bolt on mods.
