    Really lifts the spirits to see you fork over for another GP, neighbor.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Not sure I've ever seen those LCA's before. Anything special about them?
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    06+ camry, or es300,

    i used stock rear mounts and i made my own fronts,

    i cut and welded new ears on the bottom mounts, was pretty simple,

    the front can still go down about 1.5" if i wanted, but i wont be going that much lower.... the suspension is super stiff now

    pictures? I'm always looking for a cheaper way/better way to use coilovers? Any particular brand you've used?
