Extended my 92-96 lip to fit my 97 bumper. It's not 100% yet but I like the way it looks.

Hopefully you won't have trouble with the Loctite. It was only an issue with one side for me. I just used about 10 wood matches to heat it up, one match at a time of course. It heated enough to loosen it up.

Replaced my throttle body assembly, TPS, and IVAC. spark plugs, and entire distributor. car idles and drives smooth as silk. don't know why because the head is coming off any way for a 1.5JZ conversion. Free modding on cars is great. I love my job.

It was actually yesterday, but I drove the car outside of my driveway for the first time in over two years. Got an alignment and put about 140 miles on it. Not bad for a shakedown run.
