now I see what you mean about the quad not being functional

torqdork 07-04-2013 11:39 AM

I'm all about brakes. Really looking forward to seeing your kit.

Luis_GT 07-04-2013 11:42 AM

Damn... Your build is going nice... :party0030:

I'm going to mod mine, but I want to feel the difference each part give so I will upgrade slowly...

The yellow trd sway bar just showed up the day I dropped off tires a few days ago. I ordered it 4 months ago with everything else. Was gonna feel funny putting everything else on and not the sway lol. I'm ocd

Say no to the fins! The car is going to look much cleaner without them...

Barvo, Barvo!! This is lookin sick! Did I see that you are having the 6/4 pots put on? Err mahh gerd!

I waffled on the fins as well and have decided as of yet to not install them. I put up a poll and it stayed steady at 50/50 no/stahp. So if I do decide to put em on I'm gonna be walkin the haters gonna hate walk i guess.

Keep up the great work!

JSMIL 07-04-2013 12:38 PM

I also vote no fins. Looks much cleaner without them.:thumbup:

Good choice... to me the fins look tacky and out of place...

Oh, ok - that diffuser. Still want to see how it all looks with the OEM bumper. Crazy pricey brakes tho, should powdercoat them another color - be unique.

Yellow is an interesting (?) color choice for TRD

also waiting on a quote for the front diffuser as well that is sold by the race segment of Toyota I guess...

Jealous! Great car man.

jedichimp 07-04-2013 02:58 PM

Right on, I like the TRD line/brand image myself as well so I can see sticking with it.

I think it's a great car even if it's "underpowered." Has decent power and makes up for balance and the way it is designed.
