  1. i never really did post about it so ill do it now... Any ways, ive been been riding on eibach springs 1" drop and Tokico blues struts for quite some time now. The ride is fantastic and quite responsive. Since i have 16' LS wheels.. i used to ride on thinner tires... but recently i changed that too... its now a 215/55/16. The tires are much bigger and the ride is softer because of that , but also better in handling because they are bigger. Excellent tread pattern too.. the tires are all high performance all season delta's - a yokohama company.... My fender gaps are very small now. K&N filter and Borla exhuast... my last fuel milage on the highway was 26 mpg. Excellent for these cars. Im satisfied with the performance of this vehicle now, considering if it was any faster, and im 20, id prolly get myself in serious trouble... lol. I was a lil dissapointed with the handling when i first had gotten it. But now that ive done these few mods... i love it... Its nothing amazing, but its definetly to a point where its real fun to make turns, and cornering is almost no problem. one thing though... and this is what i think really explains the dramatic body roll effect. Though the body originally had a significant amount of roll... now that ive dropped it and changed the suspension its gone.. But, there is still that effect. I think that is because of poorly designed seats. They dont hold you at all and just throw you from side to side. I think this just creates that effect of a Huge roll.... ive seen that it really really makes a big difference with a cusioned pad. I have leather seat covers on top of the coach... and now it feels MUCH different.... just thought id share some of my thoughts with you fine people cheers, Neil
  2. i was havin fun with my comments ofcourse.... yeah i know of plenty auto malls... some independent and some all owned by the same guy.... tell you what .. that guy was verrrrry $$$$$$$$$$$$$ :cries: $$$$$$$$$$$
  3. these peices your talking about should be the exact same things as the camry's from those years.... Go to the toyota dealership, if you have one... they should exactly what your talking about...
  4. ofcourse... kinda like when you go to the shopping mall and buy reebok socks with nike shoes
  5. yeah those lights are sealed up real well... My 96... i have to do mine ... my taillight dash thing came on too . ! bad design.. those narrow trunk... dont know what they were thinkin :chairshot:
  6. LoL, thats what im thinking kinda like ford and crysler
  7. Congrads on the purchase mate! Youll enjoy this forum!
  8. dude, thats prolly like a suggest your own price thing
  9. those are characteristics of bulbs. They behave such because they are on the verge to becoming dead. The hitting and beating or shaking works only until the bulbs get real bad enough .... id replace them... cause sooner or later youll have to... Unless this is a connection problem... which i really doubt
  10. that questions is kinda indiscript. It could be anything.... even something totally unrelated. Wheres it exactly coming from ... Best thing is to go to any mechanic and have him pinpoint where exactly the noise is
  11. lexusk8, shoulda kept the Coach man!!! yeah ... i say all the same things about mine... (96 ) Though youve prolly heard this again and again... nothing is like a car kept well... rA regularly maintained vehicle will treat you well... Just make sure you dont over look that!
  12. yeah, funny... Im now riding on tokico's and eibachs prokits. Just got it done. However, now all of a sudden im getting that creaking sound. if my mounts werent bad then, how come there creaking now ?
  13. as long as the red stuff was completely flushed out of your system.... Green is totally appropriate to put in. The red stuff is just purely toyota chemicals, and it doesnt make a difference which you use, so long as you dont ever EVER mix the two. Doesnt apply to the newer cars though that have that high milage coolant i dont think
  14. Hey man, yeah Sorry i missed your im earlier. Id been out all night. Hopefully they arent feeding you any crap. Did they let you see it?
  15. why does this matter?
  16. that question dont sound right.. what you talking about? like just accelerating hard ?
  17. Exactly !! Its my own choice... and im not plannin to sell the car. I love the looks... as do SO many others... even elders. Its all bout the individual. ps. BullSh~t - yall know it looks fly
  18. its not to make it look faster... in my opinion , for me, it looks pretty classy.... My taste
  19. hey lex ... what kind of shifting behavior did you exactly observe? Like were the shifts really hard? Too short... long? How was it exactly slipping ?
  20. yeah, i hear you ... ill just see what happens... im ganna get it checked out though... by someone that wont BS me
  21. its def a good 2-3 three seconds... as i said, all the other shifts are fine.... only when i gun it... there a unusually long delay.... its really confusing me
