As I'm about to start working on my crosser I thought I should get a build thread going.

Plans at the moment are a complete front end respray, changing the grill and removing the original mesh in the front bumper and replacing it with more up to date stuff.

Then in the not so distant future I'll be putting coilies on, building a custom exhaust, new alloys and an induction kit. Plus whatever else I decide to add to my list Smile [Image: ebagyzet.jpg][Image: umasygeq.jpg][Image: zavyvu6y.jpg][Image: u3azehyp.jpg][Image: neresygy.jpg]

I've always had a soft spot for these for the same reason the Scooby WRX or STI wagon is they are practical while still remaining every bit as good looking and sporty as their saloon siblings and best part of it all is they are unique or even special and most certainly under rated... well done on choosing a great car i can only imagine how cool one of these would be with a 400+ bhp 2jzgte power plant and a kicka$$ body kit...

They are definitely underrated! I'm over the moon with the car, it's quick, practical, reliable, easy to maintain and luxury.... What else do I need? Looks wise I'll be adding my own touches, the engine will be the last thing I do to it, but overall it's an awesome little wagon as it is..... Even got it skidding quite effectively last week Smile

Get a 3" cat back I had one on my is300 just had one box custom on the back and it sounded awesome not too loud but loud enough that people loved it, it sounded just like a supra yet my tt supra sounds boring with the same style exhaust lol

So your tuckin 15's, that's cute but come back to me when you get some proper size wheels

Remember that a Sports X has a bigger rear bumper and a IS200 rear silencer is about 1.5 inches to short, you will melt your rear bumper.
I only found out after I fitted a HKS to mine

1990 Eunos Roadster in Mariner DU blue
Cobalt cat back, Decat pipe, 15in Red Rota GT3 alloys, Toyo tyres, Lowered on Coil overs, Red anti roll bars, 14degree timing mod, white dash kit, illuminated side marker lights,
Halo ring headlights, OEM windblocker, Bluetooth streaming HU, Blue leather handbrake and gear lever gaitor, Centre brake/tail light mod, Blue velour door cards, Polished cam cover, Polished front strut bar, 4xheadrest speakers, JDM floor mats, Suede semi dish steering wheel,
