Crap I didn't realize I double posted, my bad. Not sure if the mods can delete one of my posts.

Hehe what do you mean confused?

8/16/19 - TE37SL vs GT-P
 

So I went up to DFW to pick up some stuff off Facebook marketplace. Usually for these types of trips I would take the Tesla, but I ended up finding some wheels last minute for the RX7. I had the 4Runner packed pretty good with aquarium stuff and the wheels. Felt like I was back in college moving back from Austin.

I had some fun mocking up the wheels on the IS300 and Model 3. If it weren't for the stud size, I could run these on the Model 3 no problem.

I wasn't sold on the "limited edition" Hyper Blues initially but seeing them in person changed my mind. I really wanted the TE37SLs because the price was good enough to consider them plus they had Bridgestone RE71r's already. They'll do for now since I'm still working on the RX7 anyway, so any tires is better than bare rims. Now I just have to figure whether I want to keep my Volk GT-Ps or sell them.

9/11/19 - R1 Seat swap
 

I've had these R1 seats sitting in my 3rd gen 4Runner for the past year at least. Someone on FB marketplace was looking for a set of seats and was okay with not having the brackets. I gave them the choice of the leather or the R1 style and they went with the lower cost option. I decided to tackle the swap first thing after work so I wouldn't cop out of doing it later in the week due to laziness.

It took 2 hours but was pretty straight forward. I only f'd up one of the bracket bolts but the rest of them bolted up to the seat just fine. I'll have to rethread it down the road but otherwise looks fine. I'm just glad to get rid of that 90s leather smell that was plaguing my interior ever since I put the leather seats back in. I still prefer the base cloth seats, this material feels thin and seems like it won't hold up to my heavy weight. My guard dog got tired and took a nap towards the end.

While cleaning up the garage, I messed around with the TE37SLs and tried them on. The color is definitely a bit loud for a stock body FD. Not sure if I want to leave them or paint them a more subdued color. They would be tucked more if it weren't for the 275 wide tires. I'll eventually get them on the car once I find the right front set of tires. For now back into storage they go. At least the garage is cleaner after the organization.
