I changed the color of my gauge cluster to complement my autometer gauges. I think they look good although to me reverse (R) looks a little pink so I'm going to look for a darker shade if they make one. I'm also going to overhaul my brakes as soon as I get the parts in.

those came out nice. :rockon:

There is something soothing and cool about the blue color. It just looks more prestigious than the red. Flows very well with the meters' colors.

I only wish the AEM wideband gauge came in a similar blue color. That or if Defi still made a wideband gauge, since theirs are all blue as well.

I wish the AEM came in blue too, I haven't seen to many reviews on autometer's wideband AFR gauges, but I would get one because it matches.

Yes it does, but I have mine on full.

Well the parts are on and I like the improvements, next up are the control arms. It also seems I have found a solution to the noise I rarely get when I back out of my driveway. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/suspension/102360-4th-gen-front-end-clank-gone.html
This is the old bushing

And here is the new one installed on the rod.

I have a couple of other mods already here but I've got finals and I don't function well in the cold so I'll have to put it off until one of the two passes.

Once you are lowered as well, all of those components will make for some crisp turning and handling. :top:

How are you liking the new brake pedal feel and responsiveness?

Its pretty nice, these are the lines.

Thats pretty much all I have besides a different compound brake pad. I like the pressure and feed back it gives me, I feel like I can brake later and harder than I used to. I would definitely recommend them. :smile:
