Yup! Depending on your offsets, mine are pretty high (45) in fact I'm running a 10mm spacer to get it flushed/tucked the way I want it.

Full timing service. Aftermarket new waterpump was leaking all over the alternator. Rather than risk it based on what the previous owner *thought* was a recent timing service, did tje whole shebang anyway. Whomever did it before me used a factory Toyota belt, tensioner, aftermarket pump and reused the idler. Used cars always hold fun surprises.

Today I installed my spyder auto black headlights with yellow fogs and once the rain cleared I installed my Spec-D LED taillights.
I opted out of HID headlights because LED bulbs are just as good IMO and I didnt care much for any of the HID housings I found
The reverse light is white really white, the color looks purple because my phone is stupid.

Tinted my tails red the other day. Looks pretty decent IMO. Just need to figure out how to make my indicator lights orange and my reverse lights clear! Any ideas?

Blue led bulbs in your reverse lamps. Blue + red = purple. Personally I can't stand Amber. After I tinted my tails I replaced all the bulbs (except reverse) with red led's.

Changed my plugs, turns out I had the wrongs ones in there. Car would sputter under throttle. Installed the NGK bkr7eix and a night and day difference. Still has a slight sputter at high rpm. Not sure what that could be....

Installed SS pillars. Holding off on the c-pillar pieces until JDM window visors get back from paint and go on. Most won't agree but that's ok with me!
