My Car! What do you all think?

If speed is your thing, you will want to check out some local tracks so you can lay down the hp out there.

LED floor lights

And the blue is the led in the foot wells, and i did some up front to and definantly speed is my thing haha

Ahh... Contrast was an issue in the picture. I've installed my fair share of those.

Needs a wing and underbodys.

What should really be done? What do you want to do? Improve handling? Economy? Grrrrrowl?

You ought to know out of anyone here... Beige Toyotas rule all sleepers.

Idk definantly handling and speed and i need a wing next bday present

Do yourself a favor and don't get the wing.

Rubber and suspension sound like a good first step.

And improve the driver. You dont need mods til you can outdrive the car.

Lol thanks

That's a very nice car. At some point you'll want to get your hands dirty and the first thing I would do is put in a fresh set of NGK spark plugs. I'm pretty sure your car is uses iridium plugs. Don't use Bosch plugs or Bosch anything.

Iridium spark plugs are used on newer cars and can be used on most older cars. Iridium plugs are 2-3 times more expensive than old school plugs but are worth the cost.

Very true. AutoX can do this for you! Yes, we know you are going to tinker with your new toy. If you take a look through my garage you can see, I did the same crap.

AutoX will keep you in a safe environment to improve.

Lol thanks guys and whats the difference between iridium plugs and normal ones?

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Hey... I went to my first autox on coilovers star specs and massive sways... Still managed to loop it and post slow time of day.

HAH. mndsm got STD!

Iridium plugs last 80 to 100K miles. Standard ones last 20 to 30k miles.

In reply to FifthGear2014:

This has some good info on iridium plugs

Wow her spark plugs haven't been changed lol I should do that

Tires are the same ones when the car was purchased

I believe iridium can also be sharpened to a finer point which in some cases may help performance. I prefer to stick to OEM because I expect to have to tear into the engine within 30K. Because I break things. A lot.

We'll the good thing is I still have time to think about what I wanna do

such a nice group of guys on this forum

Nice first car. I wouldn't put much money into it looking for acceleration gains. If it were mine, I'd go for some lowering springs and performance shocks, then probably leave it alone and let it be reliable transportation.

Ikr I'm glad these guys are giving me some ideas on how to improve my car

I wish I could have saved some of my old cars from myself!

I'm gonna save all the cars I work on and just save up money for new ones to buy instead of trade the old ones in
