Im still saving for a car, I ended up buying a grand worth of maintenance stuff for the Runner... it was time. I believe im just gonna save cash for a vehicle and get a cheaper one around 5k area.. although this 1992 celica gts has caught my eye. Some parts have been installed but heres a pic of whats to be installed tmr.

So, I bought my second car last week.
Its a 1993 Civic Hatchback Dx 5spd model. 130000 miles. Its in decent shape. Needs paint and some body work. It already has a lowering kit front and back and its legit...no cut springs lol. The best part about it is 37 mpg. Ive been contantly busy working on it/cleaning it every chance i get, I see it becoming interesting in the future. Ill put the build on here and still keep my 4runner up to date while she gets a break

Looks great for being Red!!!
I had a 02 Sequoia with the same wheels. I love those and if i didn't find the FJ wheels i would of put those on my 4Runner too.

Little Update
Well haven't done much with my 4runner lately other than clean up my roof rack with a TRD decal and
ive been putting money in my little hatch. Turns out it burns oil horribly so ive got a whole
other Vtec motor ready to be built (hopefully soon).
and ive just been doing little things to it. I plasti dipped the wheels and some moldings on the side,
Cleaned the interior and bought an HKS exhaust and some mirrors.
The hatch is on the verge of being a race car. (complete sarcasm)

You traded the civic for that lexus?! Nice!!

Yes I did. Bad part about the lexus is the driver seat is rough but looking into seat covers that fit really tight and look factory.

That's not bad at all, especially compared to the interior shots of the civic when you bought it that **** was gross. I've driven one of those sc400's and I loved it they are very cool cars. What's been done to it besides wheels? Looks like it was lowered too.
Edit - was it in an accident? bumper and fender color look a little off...

Traded the Lexus
And now im back to a 96 Ek Hatch Honda Civic.
I liked the Lexus but it was a couple grand away from being nice,
I put it on Craigslist to see what came my way and this hatch was it.
We met up one day to check out each others cars, I was in love with
his car and he was in love with mine. The next day we met up to trade.
The guy didnt take any short cuts on this car. Just got painted a few
years back pearl white and still looks amazing. The interior is nice nice.
And best part of all, Its boosted. Stock motor which was an automatic
for 130XXX and it was swapped manual. Now has around 160k and
runs amazing. It shocked me. The lexus had the V8 but it feels slow
compared to this hatch. Heres some shots of it
