Everyone seems to be buying mods, yet I struggled to afford the radiator cap as an add-on.

You're not alone

Visited a mates place today, @Tech, where he has a new hoist in his garage.

Got some photos of under the car. Considering I've done 11,000km (6,900 miles) it was still looking pretty good under there.

Under body panels (I know they are extra in USA but standard on all models here). Makes it very tidy underneath the car. Photo is from just behind front lip looking back.

Curious how do you feel the ride quality is with the TRD coilovers?

Firm, but then I'm used to that as had a Nissan S15 for 12 years before the 86.

I notice the joins in the motorway (freeway to you guys) ka-dunk as I go over them. Then remembered I hadn't adjusted after setting them much firmer for the track - oops.

Wife and kids haven't mentioned the ride being too firm when we have travelled long distances but then they are well trained and love going in the TRD.

I was expecting rougher ride,they are comfortable. but point the car anywhere, and it just goes there, Michelins don't make a peep...

Problem I have with "word" stickers on the side @supra2nv is that the sides aren't symmetrical once applied as they always read left to right. So unless they are symmetrical symbols (not words) the sides of the car aren't mirror images. I might be the only one in the world that thinks that but...

The "TSI" on my conquest same thing. The words "Turbo II" on my old rx7 and even the direction of the teardrop on the wheels where asymmetrical on that specific car. And Remember pininfarina?

It will look good that's what counts. I think it will look good, idk willing to try...

Worst case you peel them off so give it a go!

I had the square TRD ones here http://www.japanparts.com/db/parts_d...=&SEARCH_page= on front bottom of doors but my wife and other members of our car club said they looked cheap. I think the signature ones like i had are much more subtle, the big red ones are better on a race car.

yup easy to change yeah I want the smallest signature I think that's the one, 314 mm have to go back and check my journal I noted it somewhere there...there are 3 sizes, I wanted to know what the smallest looked like on a car..thanks bro it's very tasteful. I love the "signature"....also loved it on my "supra" badge haha...
