The trunk had some rims inside but as you know TRD springs are lower in the back.

Some of you also asked me to post some pictures of my retrofit so here's a little sneak peak...

Well, it's now turned into project "Fix all and make perfect" for the SLE V6 Auto.

It's going to go up for sale so I want to make sure everything is in top shape.

On the great side, the SE V6 5-speed is all fixed, misfire figured out.

Bro you're a brain and the f*ckin man!!!!! That 5 speed pulls like crazy with the supercharger. I'm still trying to get used to how quick the revs go up, granted yesterday was the first day I made a few hard pulls. So thank you Adam for making this happen.

The coolant bypass hose is fun. I had to saw mine off and lube up the new one to get it on.

HOLY SMOKES, NO SLUDGE!!! That makes me happy!!!! I figured it wouldnt have any as I change the oil often and try to do regular maintenance but this is definitely reassuring when I sell the car.
