Cant wait to see it painted! Its coming along great! You should get an Apex-i power intake cone filter for your intake! They are currently the best air filter on the market!

well when i blew my motor i went out and bought this 1994 Toyota Camry 2.2L mainly because it is almost the same color as my old S13. Razi knows whats up with the juniper green metallic. the car was only $300 and i drove it for about 3 months. Today i put it for sale online and got a trade offer. Guy was looking for a gas saver for his daughter to drive because she was driving his old 1992 Lexus LS400 4.0L V8. He offered to trade me straight up pink slip for pink slip even though he was selling his car for $1100 more than mine. So now i am the proud owner of this '92 Lexus.


my $300 yota

yesterday i got started on sound deadening the rear hatch area and under my back seat. my exhaust drone when im at a constant rpm (freeway driving) is not un-bearable, but even when the radio is off i have to raise my voice to talk to anyone in the car. got hooked up by GT Sound control with some of their material. Pics pics pics
