Cool Still got it this is the latest update

so I recently put on a a full single exhaust system and is also in the planning to do a few more mods .i just want the car to look tasteful and perform well in hp and handling areas.I guess I just want a weekend cruiser to be my daily. Next is BBK LS400 front and Supra rears, and trans build so I can shift later should I try shimming the actuator? and find a set of chrome TTs to put on but for now rocking 1st gen IS17s

Classic Green Pearl<3

my Favorite pic

Very nice, I think chrome badges would look better then gold on that color.

Love that exhaust, any pictures underneath to show how it fits? Is this a supra catback?

I love how polarizing car mods can be.

IS300 wheels have always looked good on these cars......from the side. They don't show enough meat at the back though and support no weight with regards to the car's heft or added hp. Looks clean though. A SHINE bumper would helph out the back tremendously. But you'd have to go all the way around to stay even.

It sits low I need to have it mounted a little better it's a mkiv turbo catback from megan racing. Yes I need chrome badges because the gold doesn't flow well with the car. honestly I think all is wheels are too small for these cars because of the high offsets except for the ISF rims those look damn good.thses were temp since I sold my sc430s a few months ago am looking to put some staggered 18s on

did you move it higher already? hard to tell from the pics. shorten up the rubber hanger at the end (or all of them they make different lengths at the auto store) or rework the hangers completely, and take a BFH to the spare tire well so the pipe doesn't rub and you will see it go up another 1-1.5". It looks good I would just tuck it just a little more if possible likely you will be scraping it so any height you can get now helps.

I'd have to echo Kris' "get some spacers" sentiment. The black wheels look extra sunken in.
