    Very nice! I love it without the rear trunk spoiler but with the window spoiler. Did you clean the headlight lenses?

    progress IS a slow process

          Thanks man, the hatch spoiler was a pretty desirable option, so I figured there was enough going on with just that. I used the turtle wax restoration kit. It included sanding pads, polishing compound and sealant and I'm very pleased with the results!

              Thanks for the love! Short term plans(for the rest of my time in Okinawa) are pretty small/simple. New tires will be ordered soon, and I'd like to do a few things to the interior as you referenced but mainly just make little improvements here and there, get some seat time at the track to dial everything in/identify weak area and enjoy! Once the car gets back stateside it's going to undergo a full teardown and rebuild. I'm thinking do luck kit, body work and paint, completely redone interior, fully replaced or upgraded running gear, and big turbo/e85/N2O. But that's not for a couple years, and once I start that phase, I'm going to take my time and do things right, as long as it takes to have the best possible quality, even if it takes a couple years to complete.

                  A good photographer friend of mine tagged along on this weekend's cruise to the mountains to see the cherry blossoms and he took this dope shot!

                  I got new tires this weekend aswell so I had to give the old ones a proper send off.

                      In preparation for this past week's track day, I raised and fine tuned the suspension a bit. It may go against my inner #lowlife but the improvements in handling and ride are indisputable and to be honest I think it looks better this way. It rode and handled well before especially given the lowness, but now its so smooth while still being firm and predictable, I honestly don't foresee myself going any lower any time soon. Here's how she sits now.

                      Here's some of the trackday footage.

                        Still looks great! A little bit of practicality doesn't go astray anyway, and you could probably fit some meatier tyres up front now without a worry. ;P

                        Are you basically using 1st and 2nd gear in that course?

                          Ah, no kidding, it does look pretty tight but still fun. Not many options then. :| We have one track I'm meaning to get out to when car is where I want it to be for the moment (awaiting Evo 5 Brembo, hub/LCA conversion), which I think is about $120AUD for a day practice, about 2 hours away. A new motorsport facility is being constructed about an hour south though, so will be interesting to see the prices there...

                            Hola ladies and gents, here's a few updates for you. I got my hands on a set of 4 Pot UCF20 calipers, sprayed them, and swapped them out for the crappy 2 pots. The improved performance is awesome and I have to admit, they look pretty gnarly behind the meisters.

                            I also got a few madjdmtyte interior parts to spruce up the cockpit a bit. It's just a steering wheel, boost gauge, shift knob, and supra specific pedal covers but I think it mades a noticable difference in both looks and feel, a mix of sport and class that I've tried to impliment throughout the entire car.
