I'm planning on dying my seats black to match the doors and dash. Also re-upholster the center console cover, change my climate control, dash gauges, and a-pillar gauges to blue, and add some tan velvet (or some material like suede) to my doors.

Just small projects, mainly. It's too cold out for any major work to be done. I could probably do all that work in one day if I wasn't so lazy lol.

ST - nothing

GT - swap the tranny and new mounts, new axles, new A arms and new hubs, install new TRD springs (just bought them) and struts, clean up and refinish the wheels, maybe exhaust too.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Well was just gonna edit my first one. But o-well, I forgot to put in my projects.
TWM short shifter
Tein Adjustable coil overs
Toyota rear strut bar
Custom AC/Heat (Red)
Custom Gauges (Red/White bars)
Accel spark plug wires
Bigger Ground wires
Towards the end of winter around Feb or March i will be starting to put everything on, and start doing all my bodywork myself in my garage. Then i'll be getting my vader bodykit and eurobuni wing fitted and the whole car repainted.

My winter project.........




Getting my transmission rebuilt or replaced.

The fluid change helped........ for a while.

Good to hear your doing something about those side markers. If you could put them up by the mirror like the JDM's, that'd be cool. Your car is really flowing together, but those sidemarkers are interupting that flow.

Need to find one more rim so I can mount my snow tires. Think I'll paint them bronze just to see if I like.

New indiglo guages are on their way.

Change cc to blue backlight with red led switch lights.

Ignition ring, cigarette lighter, clock, window switch all change to blue. Not sure if I'll do leds or blue film.

Short shifter would be nice. Not sure how to do it yet (mod what I have or buy new?)
