Rookie
Well I finally got around to putting on my LS400 brakes today. I also got my sunroof wind visor on. It came off a Nissan Altima. It has actually mounting hardware, instead of tape to hold it on. It seems to have a lower profile than the ones I have seen for our cars.

My project car took a turn for the worst. Bought it not running at all with 195K. Had ECU rebuilt, installed new distributor caps/rotors, spark plugs, wires, then learned the timing belt skipped a few teeth so I did the timing belt, water pump, pulley's, tensioner, varoius gaskets/seals/o'rings, etc.... Finally get to drive it out of the driveway today to learn the transmission grabs late.
Going normal speed it's fine, but pedal to the floor it grabs around 4-5K which is very late. I believe 2800-3200rpm is where it should upshift. I was thinking the new ECU might still be adjusting, but I'm doubtful.
All and all I'm about $1950 into it which really isn' bad considering all the new parts, but I originally planned to flip this car for profit. It's impossible to find someone willing to purchase a car with 200K and a tranny problem. I could part it and get my money back no problem(black interior, bc coilovers, 3 spoke wheel, 18's, etc...) but I'd hate to put a good dog down.

replaced my steering rack and pinion bushings for Whiteline bushings
the oem rubber bushings were in great shape
i replaced them anyway but don't feel any difference in handling
also dropped my tranny pan and replaced the filter and gasket
