Winter wheels- Supra TT's. Car was dirty so colors aren't as bold. Waiting on Aristo bumper from paint and HIDs in the mail. New leather...2 weeks away.

Got a few new things and a couple pictures with the winter set up while being clean. Still waiting for my bumper to get back from paint then everything's going on.






bad picture I know but I just snapped a quick one when it just got done.

El Nino gave us a nice winter. We had like 2 weeks of weather in the teens-low 30's but it's been mid 40s-mid 60's the whole time. Alot of the crops over here are starting to bloom/sprout to early it's been so mild.

Nope not yet. Still in the shop. My stepbros friend is doing it as a side job at his shop. It had some extensive work needed and it would be too much to have them repair "in the books" so I've gotta go see him and see whats going on. Im still waiting on the crashbar/foam and the license plate mount to show up anways.

But when I do get it all I will also be putting in HIDs LB6k F3k and new coils are going on this sunday so I will FINALLY be able to go lower

LOL

you've clearly never seen my winter then.

that amount of snow you got in hte pictures on page 2, we get about 4 of those dumpings in a couple months, and have about 4 times that much snow from about october to april. and -25 F is a common thing, lol

trust me, there has never been, nor never will be grass visable in february where i live, nevermind grass that's greener than what our grass is in july

New parts on. BC coilovers, Aristo bumper, 6k lows/3k fogs, SPC adjustable uppper control arms, Katzkin 2tone leather replacements. Leathers a little loose in a couple spots on the front seats, guess I should have bought new foam. Will be doing that along having a matching center console made. This next weekend I will be lowering the front 1/8-1/4" more and rewiring the headlights so the corner lamp is always on like US regulations




I really want to get new neckpads too, the JP's are a little to bulky for me. When I have nothing else going on I'll get around to ordering garson/d.a.d one's

Matt, how did you get the rear wheels straighten up? Is it because you have a camber kit or did something to the alignment? Eversince I put on the JIC coilovers, my rear camber looks terrible. My GS is currently riding on stock Supra TT wheels. I need to put new tires on my 19" Volks Racing SF Challenge but too lazy. The reason I delaying it because I want to see what I need to do so I can adjust my rear so it won't wear the tires with camber problem. I like how your rear are line up with the front. Oh secondly, I wish we did that exchange back then. Bad timing I guessed because I really like the Tein CS. The JIC is too rough for daily driving, even at the lowest setting for damping. Beside that, I like how it handle though.
