i'm thinking about lowering it, upgrading suspension, gettin rims, an intake, and possibly a sound system; all done this summer. Where can I go about finding lowering springs and the suspension setup other than going to the shop? how much would something like this cost me? I can't seem to find anything online right now.
As for intake, i have found a Hyper Intake:
hyper intake
I'm not sure if it will work; for those who have seen the 3.0L in the Highlander will know about the various vacuum tubing linked to the stock intake setup. I do not know how to get around that, nonetheless, $183.00 for intake is very expensive. Right now I only have a K&N filter inplace of stock one. It seems to me that the stock setup is fairly restrictive. So far this is the only think i've found on the internet.
I am also looking for rims to replace these dull stock ones. Tirerack.com has been good to me, but not good enough. Their selection for Highlanders is too small. After looking around, I guess I can only get 18's because there is no way I can pay for anything bigger. Keep in mind I would have to get tires along with the rims. I am looking elsewhere for rims and I need to know specifications for wheels that fit the Highlander(bolt pattern, offset, etc.). Also, can anyone tell me what is the widest tire I can go in 18" diameter without any rubbing?
I want to do an exhaust setup too. for a Full setup, would that require changing all exhaust parts from engine to the tips? if so, what would be some suggestions for parts and measurements to give the Highlander optimal performance? approximately how much will doing this run me?
Sorry about the long post.:o The car is finally mine and I want to get stuff done to it over the summer. THanks in advance to anyone who can help with this matter.
