Looks good so far! I used to work valet and I remember there being a semi-frequent Cressida that had something like 320K + on the odometer. It ran and drove great (albeit at <15mph)

Major bummer... :( :( :( :( The sways are not in stock and have to be ordered from Eibach in CA. He said at least two weeks till I get them. :( I think I will go ahead and install your old springs on Monday though. They would charge me seperately for installing the sways anyways.

I'll post pics after the tint and springs.....Mondayish.
