Clay bar and waxed. Beautiful and smooth. I must say I like the results better than the opticoat I had on the first car.

Been pretty busy today working on my car:
Installed trd start button Installed red led strips Installed injen air intake Made a master cylinder brace and installed it, it doesn't look to bad i think, but i'm going to try and make another one that hopefully will look a bit prettier. Lowered with Eibach Pro-Kit

Wow nice.. Looks like the front didn't camber much as the rear..the rear is not that bad.. How's the springs feel driving it? Stiff/soft /medium ?
You installed it yourself right? Pretty easy with the spring tension tool.. So just pretty much drop the spring in the stock shocks and bolt it back on? Not sure if you really need a camber kit when using a lowering springs just to lower the car like a inch.. Thanks |

yes i installed them by myself, it's really easy with a spring compressor tool, and like you already say, just drop the spring in the stock shocks and bolt it back on. you can't adjust the camber much with the stock bolts. the recommended to use adjustable camber arms for a 1” to 1.5" drop to compensate for the extra stress that was caused by lowering the vehicle "When cars are lowered it creates negative camber which will generate extra stress on the stock control arm" I do not know if I'm going to replace them with Adjustable Camber Arms. i like the camber now. I also did not have them on my celica and never had any problems.

Installed the homelink/auto-dimming mirror. I heard it adds 50 hp at the wheel and if I go 88 mph the flux capacitor inside of it will allow me to time travel.
