Hello

 I have been meaning to start a project build page for a while, but as I have never done one before I will do my best. 

I have a 2004 IS300 sportscross which I am currently upgrading using bits from a previous project. 

I started by putting my bigger brakes on, the 8 pots are front and 6 rear.

I had to modify the hubs to fit the discs to the rear, the first picture shows the lip I needed to cut off. The second shows it cut IMG_20210201_153312.thumb.jpg.c72b420a89ca9d0de05f25a7c2db7cba.jpgIMG_20210215_170101.thumb.jpg.3e627beb612357d70a1485f79c5813d8.jpg

To mount the calipers I had to modify the brake adapters from Soarer to IS300

The fronts I had to use spacers for the calipers to fit. I had some parts machined and welded them together.

I had to put wider arches on the front as the wheels stick out, whilst doing that thought I would put a whole bodykit on (just doing front wings at the moment, will put pictures when bodykit done)

Yes, me too. I had a V8 and a TT at the same time. You clearly have taste and skills, looking forward to watching this develop.

I am currently changing the cream interior to the two tone black and grey. 

One the main changes will be moving the Battery to the rear, then move the fuses and ecu to where the Battery was
