Default Some Pictures of my SC

So I went to a local car meet tonight to check it out and was able to take some pics with my new phone. But I'll give a little info on the car since I'm still pretty new here. Its a 95 SC400 dropped on Tein CS coils with IS rims, 97+ front bumper and side skirts, r1 cross drilled/slotted front rotors, HIDs, pioneer touch screen HU, and jl audio amps. I bought the car in June with all of the mods except the front rotors. Right now I've just been doing maintenance & upkeep but plan to do more mods later. So here are some pics let me know what you guys think. Sorry for the bad quality I'm still learning how to work the camera on my phone...

Thanks guys I just got it back from the shop with all new power steering and daizen steering rack bushings put in. Next up is getting my front suspension worked on, hopefully just control arm bushings and alignment but the car lane walks pretty bad on the highway. After that she'll need a tune up/seafoam. Its my DD so keeping it dependable is priority #1.

Yes they can, when I first looked at the car the previous owner had the back dropped way too low IMO so I had him jack it up to about 2 finger lengths above the back tires. I am considering wheel spacers at least for the back because they look sunk into the fenders a little bit. I am happy with the stance though. Thanks for the all compliments, I've really fallen in love with this car and plan to keep it for a long time.

You'll never regret all the $$ you put into maintenance, because it pays off in the future.
