Amazing. I wish I could afford those brakes, let alone those rims, and replacing those tires ever 3 months. Thats gorgeous

Rollaboy; Even though I'm a "stock" kinda guy, the car is lookin' good.
I gotta laugh though, all that money you're spending and that's the kind of jack you use? And what's that, a piece of cardboard to level out the jackstand? Just kiddin', keep up the good work.

Gambooby>>> What do you mean? The camber? I havent touched the camber in the front. But yeah cambe and toe in the rear are adjusted to get maximum negative camber :-)

deanshark>>> hehe yeah its at my buddys house so the cardboard is for not messing the tiles up too much. And yeah i know it looks amateur but the jack is actually the only one i can get under the car without using ramps, because the car is low. So its easy and handy I dont have my garage anymore so i have to do all my modding elsewhere now

But that aint stopping me from modding my car further

Silly me, I wasn't even thinking the car is so low that even a regular jack wouldn't fit. That's just b/c I'm stock and don't have that problem, sometimes I even need to add a piece of 2x6 on top of my hydrolic jack to get the height I need from the jack. I know what ya mean about not having a garage anymore, I go nuts not having mine anymore. (divorce) It was worth it though.

Haha yeah i remember "back in the days" when mine was all high But yeah it was also a pitty to get the lowered car on a lift because the arms could'nt get under the car so had to get a small jack in all four corners every time But damn i'm gonna miss that lift. It just does the underbody work that much easier.

Bnastyy hehe yeah thanks i like them too. Kindda showing some muscles there ;-) i like it wiiiiiiide

But i'm sure gonna write "new camera" on my wishlist for christmas I really need a nice camera. But im also in need of a complete paintjob for the LS to make it perfect so maybe i should just wait with the camera

Yeah its EBC turbogroove discs. Grooved and dimpled. And with EBC redstuff pads. Had them for some weeks now and this car really brakes so much better now. Really glad I throwed all the money and work into the Supra TT and LS 95- calipers upgrade.
