Cheers guys

I swear CL is an evil place to be, seeing pics of everyone's rides makes me jealous hahah The stance is really bothering me though, I'm trying to source a place here in Australia to make custom outer wheel shells so that I can fatten the dish (hoping for about a 9.5"/10.5" combo) and some coilovers so I can lower it about an inch more.

did you do your trim or is that some of that JDM stuff
The maple wood grain is an experiment I like it (it's only some stretchy decal stuff I got from Japan) but when funds come around I'll get them redone. It was either going to be maple or black wood, I thought that the maple might break up the black a little bit better

Looks real good Jose! I love the wheels and the interior looks great with the light colored wood. IIRC yours is VVTi single turbo. Factory LSD as well?
Cheers Yup it's a VVTi single turbo, open diff unfortunately I'm looking to get an N/A Supra LSD up in there (or going nuts sourcing a TRD unit).

Can't wait till the Soarer's off the road, wanna finish my stuff to it already



Enjoy,

Jose

Thanks fellas

Whats your wheel setup?
CRAP lol the fronts are 19x8.5", rears are 19x9.5", +41mm all 'round (stupid importer...), so now looking for a place to make me some outer shells, looking at adding an inch more dish all 'round.

that is damn hot! haha, but what happened with your ebrake boot???
What started off as a little tear has now turned into a huge rip I'm looking for either a genuine or a close-to-genuine aftermarket piece, it looks disgraceful hahah.

Have you been on soarer central? There is currently a group by happening for Leather Handbrake Covers http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/me...tml?1232851665

Hope this helps.

Car is so clean, but is your ebrake cover ripped? New ones go for like $20-$30 on ebay.

Other than that..... sexxy
