Default Kanani22's Progression Thread..

So as some of you may know.. I got my IS a couple months ago and as of today my mods have begun. I started a to-do list of mods that I want to do so I figured I share with you guys here. I'll be updating this thread as I go down the list !

STEP UNO : suspension ( tanabe gf210 and tukico illuminas -- thanks 94supranat)

(btw...please excuse the filthiness of my exterior. I went to visit my parents on friday and it rained.. the rest was history )

before:


after:



final product :




To be continued ...

Good start. Just remember to do one mod at a time, I made the mistake of doing a few at one time and then ran into problems and couldnt figure out what was the cause. Example: SRT Intake and full exhaust
