Long time no activity.
Did some stuff to the Camry thought it'd post for the hell of it...

So i recently put on 8000k HIDS and Lexus License plate lights.
Gotta say the HIDS were an awesome investment. Makes driving at night enjoyable.

Threw in a sound system.
Jensen 6 1/2 & 6x9's
2 12" Pioneer Champion Series
760 Watt Pioneer Amp
Pioneer headunit (volume control knob broke off so i'm in the market for a new headunit or knob)

Glossy black muffler
Detailed engine
Painted the valve cover, headers back to a stock silver.

Replaced the Rear sway bar bushings. End links and bushings are next
Both o2 sensors replaced
Did an alignment, Aligned my toe to within specs. Caster was in the "yellow" but didn't have the shop time to do it yet. Might need to align my caster when i slam er

heres a couple pics

--- Just headers

final product

Also picking up these rims for free. Detailing them and possibly doing gold or black with a polished lip.

My summer/next school year project :]

Before i had a 12inch audiobahn with audiobahn amp.
Did the wiring myself

Picked up a 4gauge kit for $20used
Amp and Subs brand new package deal $360 w/ ported box
Headunit $235 installed w/ ipod connect
Speakers about $50 thanks to circuit city going out of business
Forgot to mention my Capacitor ! $80 + install = $140

Add it up and bam !
Did this all over time

Also threw some dynamat on my trunk lid, behind my license plate and in two annoying metal squares that love to vibrate loudly.

Who makes the header for the 4cyl? Any worthwhile gains?

KevinACrider · 06-05-2009, 03:29 PM

Take that heat shield off the headers and let them free!

As to performance gains, unless he has a full exhaust and intake (his sig only implies a muffler) then he's more than likely not seeing any gains.

I feel the change of quickness in my car. It is noticable to me. May be replacing headers next and have a flex pipe to replace.

fastss, just wondering, what are you gonna do with the stock rims after you put the aftermarkets on?

If your selling them, Im from Chicago and Ive been looking for a set like this for my 98.
