I hardly ever take pics of my car (cause its not that great lookin) but I finally was able to get the car back together today, and I totally missed the show off your ride thread, so In my exitement I figured I’d snap a few pics, its still has a few bugs and it needs paint BAD/ a real buff plus the coilovers are all uneven, but I dont really care cause its back together, Tommorow Me and JDMjunkie are gonna try and figure out the palm logger, anyway here they are enjoy.

Are you serious ? a 2.5" drop on stock alignment settings will do that, and my adj rear control arms are not in yet

why was it apart in the first place? what did you do to it? and why are the coilovers all uneven? why didnt you just put them in at the same height? the car looks good in the pics, but it also looks like it needs ALOT of work.
you need some more turd polish.

Lol I dont have enough turd polish to fix it right, and it was apart in the first place cause it needed alot of new OEM parts, and being probably one of the lighest 3S’s in existance I figured I go with an aftermakrket suspension setup, stiffen it up and have some fun at track days, why the coils are uneven IDK I just threw em in really, made sure they where even from side to side and drove it, and yes there are quite a few loose ends to tie up.
