Another AirRide Aristo_147

Maybe it's time to introduce my car.. 
As title says the car is 1993 Aristo with 2JZGTE.  I've owned this about three years now.

I don't know what to say cause my english is not so good, i'm Finnish =)

Few pics from the past and what car is now.

No they aren't, residential areas are full of potholes and speedbumps... well I wouldn't even call them speedbumps because they are usually about 10-25cm high :pat:
But inner cities are a tad better, still lousy, combination of road work, ground frost damage and awfull executions of road planning...

BTW Sami, have you gotten any love from the local cops concerning your new headlights?
They do look nice adn fresh =)

This thing is sweet!!!

auto on vitun mahtava! kiva työ ..

Thanks for all the compliments.

Thode bastards stopped me yesterbay, but their problem was my front sideglass tints.. 
So today i took them all away and car looks like an aquarium now =)

Looking to the future...  Interior needs definitely more leather, stock seats looks awful. And bumpers needs some adds or customing. Exhaust tips needs to change too.  Those looks like too race.

Dude these Aristos came from the factory with the GTE :smiley-rofl:

Japanese like to keep all the cool shit to them selves, just like the V8 AWD Aristo with stock air susp.

Car went to dyno today. I'm very happy :dance:

OMG must be a beast of a car!!! 
 
It's hard for people to try to be objective about subjectivity, but I'll give it shot... 
 
I'm a firm believer that you do as you please with your hard earned $$ and I also love people who deviate from the norm, that being said, what's up with the roof liner? Is there something we dont know about ur car or about ur personality that made u choose that pattern? It's definitely out of place but if something made u chose that theme then thumbs up!!!
 
I didnt like neither one of the wheels you've had on ur car but that's just an opinion... and according to what some ppl say about my wheel taste you're doing good... lol... however, the wheels on the first post what are they? They reminded me of my dad's old Nissan Sunny... old school BBSs? I couldnt really tell...
 
Finally I wanted to say that I love both performance & the VIP style, that's why I own both a TT 300zx & an M45... so I fully understand what you're doing, but I believe that the VIP table (which btw is gorgeous) next to ur exposed gauges seems tacky and very, very out of place... maybe fab something so u can hide & expose the gauges at will!!! 
 
Other than that, love the car man!!!

Eurolines fit so well    Car looks great:biggthumpup:

How cool! My rear tire slipped off during acceleration :pat:
Maybe the pressure was fallen..  ?   Three weeks ago we put 3,5bar to in it.
To the new tires i'm going 4bar and check it EVERY week.  It's easy when you have tank in trunk, but i'm just too lazy =)

Doesn't look like the inner barrel has taken much damage, only some rash. Luckily nothing else happened :saiyancrunks:

I'm second from the left with cup.

On this week i've been doing the interior, carbonfiber tape is gone and that yellow sticker on front bumper.

Dodii ja onnee pystistä. Nice to hear sum' love is coming your way after some of the late tribulation:biggthumpup:

Rearseat got some leather on it.

Car looks good man! Not really feeling the exhaust tips though

very nice. love seeing older style VIP, tired of seeing bright colors and vents everywhere

^Thanks! Quite rare color on Aristo's this 6M2 on stock, and i like it very much.. Sunshine makes it look good B)  Hmmm..  i've never posted updated interior pics here. So here's one..

You my friend need a better camera! Exhaust on the other hand looks better from this angle imho.

What are your plans for it?

Yesterday was sooooooooo sunny B)

still one of my favorite chassis to date. car was so ahead of its time!

Season ended in xtreme carshow. During winter i'm adding camber and build new trunk setup..

wow bumpers came out great! whole car looks really nice!

LOVIN IT!!! car looks clean. I'm looking towards 1st gen GS's for idea's to use on my ES and this one is on point with what I'm looking for.
