Nice man, looks clean.
Some nice wheels and a drop in height would make it look the businesses.

Thanks! It was pretty filthy when I first got it, so I sorted that out first :)
My thoughts exactly about the wheels + lower it. Do have a clue where i can get some lowering springs for it? I cant really fork out $1500 for coil overs atm and I cant find anything on trade me... :( There are springs for Camrys and Windoms e.t.c for $350 which is perfect. Would they fit an x chassis?

Unsure if those will fit, someone else may be able to confirm.
With my old 100 i used some TRD springs on standard shocks, bought them for $400. Lowered it a fair bit but not stupidly low and handled a lot better.

Sweet as. Would I be able to get them in NZ or is importing from Jap the only way? Never seen them around.

I've got a set of TRD springs with shocks... they barely lower the car but the spring rate is harder than your usual lowering springs (improves handling). If you wanna lower it, the springs itself have a few inactive coils you can cut.

If you really wanna go low with a lowering spring, go Dobi. you can get them from most suppliers or mag and turbo. for pics, check out one Thomas' green GX90

I have a set of Bilstein shocks and springs that I'd sell, but would need a factory set in exchange cause they're my pink sticker backups in case I get pulled over on adjusties :lol:

I am after wheels first. No good having a low car on steelies. :lol: So after that's sorted I will hit you up about the springs. How much are you after anyway for your set?

I heard somewhere ST205 stuff might fit? I have some if you wanted to try it out?
