Next upgrade

Kinda undecided on the next upgrade. One hand i'm looking at supra tt or ls400 brake caliper and rotors. On the next hand i'm looking at some HID's. Don't know which to do yet i'm kinda going towards the HID's though. Thanks guys.

I don't know what your budget is, but what about coilovers.

He just got his springs/strut suspension setup from JP so I figured he's good to go with that for now.

Didn't know you already did suspension mods. Def do the brakes, or maybe exhaust.

Smart move going with the brakes. Of all the mods I've completed, the LS400 brakes are by far the BEST mod for the SC. If you are looking to improve your handling, look into a rear Supra TT sway bar! Its much more stiff than the spaghetti string we call a swap bar and it can be had for under $100! Plus it doesnt hurt your ride quality.
