Aside from join up on the forums this afternoon, threw on my new set of wheels to give myself 4x4 status! PBM coils go on next week.









They're Stich Precious Wheels with Nexen N7000's
Fronts are 18x8 +36 with 235/40/18
Rears are 18x9 +33 with 265/35/18

Going to drop it down and see how it looks before anything more dramatic. I'm just looking for flush, not camber tweaked.

Did, doing, contemplating... Opinions welcome:



To re-skin or not to re-skin...


Here's what the rest of the interior looks like currently:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/bui...ml#post9253398

The black seat will match better color-wise now with the 2-tone swap, but I can't decide if it'll be too much black. It's in great shape for a stock leather skin, but can't match the quality and condition of my white leather. But, the black side panels are in much better shape than my re-purposed tan ones. I have almost all the black trim bits to complete it.

Edit: Or this...? https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...ml#post9499152

Replaced the driveshaft, flexplate coupler, and carrier bearing on my good ol' 320k mile SC400. A lot less vibes and no more drone when coasting. Love it.

My cx racing mani came in yesterday and I forgot all about it till just now walked to the front door to my surprise I saw a box.
But I do have to agree that cx racing came a long way, I'm impressed by the quality of this manifold for $135. They cleaned all the weld spatter inside of the pipes, all 3 flanges are perfectly straight without any warping and it literally bolted up like a butter without any modifications to the head ex studs.
Next step is wisely choosing a snail for the right hp rating, inj, dp, intclr+pipes, daddys happy!!

found out that the new tail leds needed resistors. so ordered can-bus leds instead. rather pay the $ for new ones that have a massive collection of resistors back there.
