I love that interior sill in cabon. Does it look like it would fit a first gen?

Thanks! I think these might just be for the 2nd gen, but can't confirm. I noticed that Revel didn't have the sills listed as an available product for the first gen.

Car was aligned and lowered about 10-12mm. No rubbing with full lock and over hard bumps (thank god for RUCA).

Few Updates:
  • Won an auction on yahoo japan for some aero - hoping that it arrives by the end of the month!
  • Got the car ceramic coated with Gyeon Infinite Base + Infinite Top Coat after a 2 step paint correction.
  • Wheels: Removed the red SL stickers and ordered some Blue OG stickers. Also replaced the red valve stem caps with blue ones.

8/6 day with the fellas! Bunch of ex first gen owners remember when @apex-apex still had his 2jz gen 1?

Got some OG stickers since the red SL stickers were clashing.

Aero shipment is getting delayed a bit. Friend is adding it to his container to save some money on shipping :sigh:

What were your alignment specs? And I'm assuming you had to trim the rear quarter at that height?

Yes - had my rear quarters trimmed (including the inner black fender plastic) before I dropped the car since I was transferring over 9.5+40 from my gen1.

Before RUCA I had around -3.2 camber in the rear in order to avoid poke and having a moderate drop (photos in the beginning of the thread).

After RUCA I'm sitting at about -2.3 camber in the rear and I was able to safely tuck the tires for a somewhat "flush" fitment.

Have some friends borrowing my car for subiefest this weekend - they were kind enough to drop the pan for me today.

Not as bad as others, but you can definitely see the grey/orange/yellow rtv in the filter. Glad I was able to get this done - hate the fact that I paid 45 bucks for the OEM RTV.

~6k miles 10/21 build date.

Voltex Type 12 finally came in after a month and a half! Saw a deal on yahoo japan that I had to snag...especially with Yen being so cheap!

Weekend Cruise to ACH which happened to be 1 year after I bought my car.

Pretty siked for GR86's in iRacing this week :burnrubber:

Replaced the Remark Elite Spec Catback with an Apex'I N1 Evolution Single Exit.

Night and day difference with volume/drone. I'd say the Apex'I is closer to stock than it is to the Remark exhaust I had before.

Was able to get a good deal on the Greddy/Voltex diffuser and I've always loved the styling on other cars like Evo's and S2K's.

Looking really good!


Do you have any sounds clips of your A'PEXi exhaust? In-cabin and outside, drive by, etc.

Thanks - Here's a vid of the cold start (very tame):
