Also once you get the short shifter, weighted knob with some leverage feels so good. Also, energy suspension motor mount inserts / oe mounts 🤌🏽 A baffled oil pan is also cheap insurance against our oil starvation issues. Dont money shift
Im very excited to show y'all the weighted shift knob I got! I went all out and got a JDM gem for a shift knob and the short shifter is going to be one of the next upgrades I get! Money shifting is definitely something I worry about when I downshift due to the OEM shifter sloppiness but we will get that issue solved soon enough 🤙🏾
Sick xrs bro matrix fam 🤘🏼 the felpro valve cover gasket is widely known to be crappy. Definitely look into control arm bushings and rear axle bushings. A dialed in alignment completely transforms the driving experience. Also look into the intake manifold gasket, use the new version. Looking forward to updates on it, enjoy the car 🤘🏼
Thanks for all the good information! The valve cover gasket will be replaced with an OEM valve cover gasket in the future but for right now its doing its job! I will hopefully be upgrading all the bushings as soon as I feel comfortable that the car is where I want to be but I can't upgrade anything until my other cars are up and running since this is supposed to be my "daily" lol
@@AustinKamuela hell yeah 🤙🏼 dude my "daily" definitely became a rabbit hole 😂 I'm guessing you found like a blitz shift knob? What year is your xrs? Also forgot to mention, rear sway bar, hands down best single mod on the car regardless of what stage of the build 👌🏽
@@Ma70rk yep got a blitz on the way thanks to a buddy of mines recommendation. I mention the year of Matrix in my video so if you rewatch it, you will know 🤙🏾
@AustinKamuela 😂 touché. 03 is solid, no secondary air injection to deal with, opens up header options and better ecu. Def in for updates on it, probably catch you in cali at some point. YEE! 🤘🏼
Great video man. I'm from Hawaii as well, picked up an XRS about a year ago.
Yessah, we gotta rep the 808 whenever we can. The XRS is Toyotas best kept secret

The man, the myth, the legend! Thanks man, this car has definitely revived my love for cars and I can't wait to put that focus towards the SC build!
