Oil pump is finally replaced and we're back to normal.
I added 12mm spacers up front and 15mm in back. Fitment looks a lot better now. Oh and I got a forged Supra key for my Mk4.Today I created a logo for my car, Red Rocket, got the TRD front damper cross member and flanges back from the paint shop and now it matches the paint on my car. Also added some CF seat back overlays.

Are your shipping spacers still on? Front looking like a monster truck spec ?I added 12mm spacers up front and 15mm in back. Fitment looks a lot better now. Oh and I got a forged Supra key for my Mk4.

how many miles?Oil pump is finally replaced and we're back to normal.
The shipping spacers are removed but I did put on 20mm top mount spacers because, if you've ever visited Thailand, you know just how terrible the roads are here. I'd prefer to do a KW V3 with HLS2 but KW has said it won't fit in the mk5. I also haven't found an air cup setup that allows for a coilover that preserves the electronic dampening. So I'm forced to raise the car up to be able to navigate the endless obstacles here.Are your shipping spacers still on? Front looking like a monster truck spec ?

~ yeah drop that sucker… to complete the look.Are your shipping spacers still on? Front looking like a monster truck spec ?
3 minutes after I drop it the TRD splitter and side skirts will be toast. Roads are not like they are in the US. They are nearly unpassable in parts here. Complete nightmare driving situation here.~ yeah drop that sucker… to complete the look.
Great wheels & welcome to the square club!!!! Bigger would be better, if I ever power ? Hope you have plenty of suspension wiggle room up front with the 295s & plenty of tire choices.Not what I did to the car, but what I procured for the car. I'm sure @FLtrackdays will come at this photo.

not sure I need welcomed. I've had 18s and squared? I was just joking due to your unnatural love with Apex wheels.Great wheels & welcome to the square club!!!! Bigger would be better, if I ever power ? Hope you have plenty of suspension wiggle room up front with the 295s & plenty of tire choices.
If you upsize the aspect ratio on your next tire replacement, it will fill the wheel well better and give you some additional ground clearance. Win-win as long as it doesn't rub at full steering lock.Roads are not like they are in the US. They are nearly unpassable in parts here. Complete nightmare driving situation here.
