I got some LED turn signals from automation and skipped out on the resistors because my friend schooled me on how they are a solution to a problem that shouldn't exist.

The proper solution? I converted from a thermal flasher unit to an electronic one. No resistors, no hyper-blink. Perfect OEM functioning bulbs without messing with any wiring at all. Only downside is that now when a bulb is dying I won't have hyper-blink to warn me. I don't think I'll have to worry about LED bulbs dying anytime soon though









And with a warm and sunny saturday, I finally got to make her shine again.

Lots of soap, a layer of Mothers Carnuba cleaner wax, and topped with Nu Finish Sealant





I drove my car a total of 12 miles this weekend. That's about 100 less than the last weekend I thought I "hardly" drove my car. This time I finally believed my car was too damn clean to drive.

Next up:

-Custom arm rest
-Start collecting alcantara interior bits
-Black TCS buttons

Finally lowered the car! (03/02/13)

Installed RCE yellow springs with SPC lower control arms. Many thanks to @Phaedrus29 for supplying the garage, tools, and experience.

Alignment and fuel pump replacement tomorrow. So I won't be flogging the car till Tuesday night at best





Summer tires next weekend?



Edit: Ooops, forgot this from February 28th 2013

Alcantara shift boot, ebrake boot, knee pads, and JPM gauge hood....along with the black shift surround and black TCS buttons. Love it!








Next up: Yospeed door sills and new black powdercoated center console plaque.

Your local toyota dealership can get them. Give the parts counter a call with the part number and they'll have it for you in a few weeks straight from Japan.
