I've got a friend who wants to do a shoot on Sunday, so we'll see how that goes. Waiting on the coils to settle, adjusting them on Saturday, and alignment on Monday.

They make them in the Supra style too!
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/4pcs-Door-L...ed-2623dca3c04e I peeled off their foam tape and use my own Loctite gel tape, it gets them flush against the body totally so they look even nicer. The black plastic caps looked nice but...I like this rice. I dunno, what are we doing for dinner this year? Giordanos like usual?

The smell of my air freshener is already faded, which is weird since can still smell my brother's. For what it's worth I started to get a headache the other day but it could've been coincidence.

Went and test drove a 16 4runner, i was expecting a little more power for how large it was. Still in consideration. Also took the vert out for a spin. New brakes are in order along with tires.

I love the new 4Runners. They look so good. Today I ordered a short shifter and bushings for my Subaru. The bushings in it now are toast and shifting it feels horrible and I'm tired of dealing with it. Also ordered a carbon fiber gauge surround, that should spice up the interior a little. -------------------- |

Speaking of short shifters I should probably get one for the Firebird sooner than later, surprisingly the shifting action itself feels good it's just the throws are stupid long. I say surprisingly since the Mustangs and that GTO I had tested felt like garbage. I guess the T56 being a toploader in the F-bodies has a lot to do with it. That aside what I bought for it the other day shipped today via USPS first class so it should arrive by Wednesday or Thursday.
Still having trouble trying to decide on what to do rims and tires wise. I really don't want the same old same old five spoke F-body or Corvette rims that everyone else uses. Some people use BMW rims since they're only off by .65 mm with nothing else done but to do it right I'd need hub rings and wobble nuts, that or redrill the rims. The other option would be getting 5x120.65 to 5x114.3 spacer adapters then that'd open the door to a lot of unique choices, but I'm just not so sure about spacers that'd have to be at least an inch or so thick. That or say screw it and stay with what I have. Which I did find one rim I really liked, but it'd require redrilling a 5x120 or using an adapter for 5x114.3 to work: ![]() I liked them since they reminded me of the snowflake rims, but a more modern interpretation that I think that'd fit the fourth gen aesthetics better than the Year One 17" replicas. Of course I'd get the 17" variation, but that's the picture that was available. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

They're the first ones I've found that I really like, everything else has been kind of meh. Which just checking on eBay the only way to get the 17" is with the 5x114.3 pattern.
