Very sweet!!! Simple, the way I like it. That steering wheel, is that from the gen5 SE? Is the airbag functional? What suspension setup do you have??

shook · 02-11-2003, 05:35 PM

thanks

actually the steering wheel is from a 2001 Mr2 Spyder (my brothers car) and no.. the airbag dont work ehehe. I got H&R springs and Tokico shocks as my suspension set up

give me more details on the sideskirts install... what was needed to modify them to fit the coupe?

thanks.

Whats up my old friend Ratko ehehe, the only side skirts out there for our gen 3 camrys are all made for the 4 door. My brother and me did some research and found that the 4 door and 2 door models have the exact frame and wheel base length (the only difference is one has 4 small doors and the other has 2 larger doors). So, the only thing you gotta do to fit side skirts on a 2door gen3 camry is cut off the extra ledge thats made to fold over and inside the rear door seal (about 18inches or so).
Thats pretty much it but it depends on the style you get, the ones i got (trd sides) roll over and in a little more since the kit sticks out a little more than others. So the rear end of the sideskirt got a little knotch.. kinda hard to explain it but if you want i can take a close up picture to show you

a friend of mine goes to japan every 4 months or so.. he picked up three sets of these (new sports 2), two of the sets went somewhere to the mainland and these are the only set here in hawaii. Theres no site where you can order these, only way to get them is straight from japan ;D or ebay if someone is selling em lol

yeh those were my old rims ! Kosei Type N, i sold those to a friend they were heavy as hell !! for 17x7.5 they were 25lbs.. with 225/45/17 Toyo T1S tires the set up was 45lbs !! lol. These Tom's rims are 18x7.5 and weigh only 14.5lbs each ! made a big difference.. the car picks up smoother and quicker, also the response is faster in turns and stuff.
