Wow been a long time since I've updated this. Just got the timing belt and water pump replaced and got an oil leak around the crank seal fixed. AND I replaced the radiator. I've put in a short ram and some new spark plug wires, next is a 7th gen short shifter.
 Got some goodies in the mail awaiting strut mounts so I can put these bad boys on These are some mods I will do soon: Cold air box Red brake calipers SS-III grill JDM tails Mods to come in the next year: SS-III splitters/sideskirts Side marker relocation |
