wheels looks good, i dig the progress. what coilovers are you planning on getting?

Tommy2JZ

coilovers will be megan EZ. the endgame is PBM coilovers. but megans for 630 is good. pbm is a little more than double that lol.

keep in mind with megans you will need to sag the rear perches to get lower than 3in or so. the shock cartridges on the megans are a bit long. why not just save up and get it right the first time, PBM is a great choice where a sag is not necessary.

Tommy2JZ

yesterday. hmm i doubt it bro i was home all day i was on the 60 today though lol.

yeah, you can say i voided the HECK out of those coilovers. im on the floor. i hit freeway markers

Tommy2JZ

installed coilovers. MEGAN EZ STREETS, maxed front. dropped rear spring about 2 inches? or 3 dont remember lol


cant go in my driveway so... i have to park outside haha

Hi Tommy, how does your exhaust sound with that bit of backyard DIY? Do you get exhaust fumes coming into the cabin?

Anyway, keep up the work. Love your car.

Tommy2JZ

not at all, i mean its not even much of a difference in low rpm. just a bit deeper. sounds nice though. i just get white smoke in cold starts which im sure is because the dang powersteering oil is landing somehere and burning up. smh need to fix that asap

Lol I liked how you went gold on the motor parts. Looking good so far.

Tommy2JZ

all gold errrrthang. lmao. thanks bud!

Tommy2JZ

did a mini shoot with a phone haha. here you go guys just to show you how low i actually sit. remember, this IS my daily since i cant go up my driveway lol.

Tommy2JZ

car left a giant puddle of ATF on the floor from power steering. idk what line is it because i havent lifted up the car but i dont have PS at the moment lol. im rolling my fenders maybe tomorrow no heat gun so expecting chips. guess the PS is the next fix because angling every couple yards with no PS sucks lol. after that i will be getting RCA's for the front, and in the back i will be getting camber arms, toe arms, and traction rods for max angle. still havent decided on exhaust, contemplated getting rear bumper extended and just not having tips and just getting it straight and dumping before bumper like oem
