Adjusted the gap from my bumper cover to my hood. Who ever designed the mounting of parts to this car is a genius! So easy to work with

I bought a TORNADO SINGLE JET BLADE JDM BLACK ECO GAS/FUEL SAVER FAN KIT to see if I can get a couple more mpg out of it. See what happens. I also got a new alternator and daytime running lamps for her.

Damn last night I had to take out the seats and rear deck again. One of the rear deck push pins was rattling when the bass dropped. So annoying. Added some Dynamat and triple tested everything...sounded great. Hopped in the car earlier today and I could hear something rattling. WTF!

Getting ready to swap the rears and begin taking apart the stock front brakes

Default bad front lower control arms

finally replaced both my front lower control arms @ 204k miles. I had the new supra control arms for about a year. The pic below is of the right side. The left side looked about the same. Symptoms were high speed shimmy at high speeds even with new shocks, new inner/outer tie rods and newer front uca's.

Other symptoms include tougher than usual turn in, a floatiness feel, wander followed by overcorrection, and lower than usual front end-that's the best that I could explain it.

The car just feels solid at high speeds, turn in is night and day-i feel like i actually have power steering. The front end also looked like it raised a 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
