Got the car running after jacking it up to remove the front suspension, rear subframe, and transmission to undergo Project Lubricate-the-bish. Also replaced the front lca's with brand new supra ones since the old ball joints spun like there was no tomorrow. Had to rock spacers up front and make it effectively 18x9.5 -3 temporarily since the extended studs don't work well with my lugs if i don't run spacers.
Need open ended lugs up front and an alignment all around and it'll be **** for the drift season.

Tried to clean the fog light lenses. Those lens restoring products don't work very well. I did learn that I have one dead fog light and one dead corner marker light. I can never say I don't have anything to do.

Began de-blacking the car.
PO sprayed bedliner or plastidip **** on bumpers, skirts, tail lights, headlights, foglights, and side markers.
Little did I know... he sprayed it to cover up the crap paint job that was put on top of the original paint. FML, had to find out the hard way.

Finally got the center console bezel removed. I always have trouble with electrical connectors on cars. They are all different. I never know how to unplug them. Now I can get to the stereo and maybe find out why the AM band and antenna don't work.

Replaced the serpentine drive belt. That was more work than I expected. I was hoping to get the belt replaced without taking any parts out of the car. Couldn't do it. I had to remove the fan, fan shroud, upper radiator hose, battery and battery tray. After that it was easy. Still better than taking it to a shop and spending a couple hundred dollars. Now, on to the next project.
