So about 2 months ago I Bought a 97 GT liftback. It is my 3rd Toyota(hence the username) I have a 93 Corolla that I have recently had a bunch of paint and body work done to a 96 Corolla and now my 97 GT
So far my plans are to beef it up a little bit. Mostly by just unclogging it what I've done so far: KYB GR-2 all the way around Slotted and drilled rotors Ceramic Pads New Valve Cover gasket (painted black while I had it off cleaning New oil pan Gasket Thorough cleaning of the engine and bay( still not quite satisfied will most likely make another pass) Weapon R Dragon series SRI Functional Sharkfin Antenna conversion Reverse Glow Gauges (Black Face) 7th Gen short throw with a black suede blue stitch boot 17" Enkei Performance GW8 wheels Twin piston calipers from a 94 camryV6 Future plans Include: High Flow cat High Flow cat delete/resonator Dual exhaust Will probably use a set of aftermarket side mirrors with LED turns built in Projectors in lows and highs with Amber led strips for turns inside the housings. Going to go through the retrofit source for the projectors Pakfiefer skirts and rear Most likely an invader style front bumper

I was never much a fan of matte black paint jobs, but I have to say that car looks sleek. Nice work + progress so far, man.
