Hi Guys.

I am about to trade in my highly modified RZ Supra (440rwhp) for the luxurious and comfortable ride of an Aristo. I have a neat stocko 1995 model in pearl white 2-tone lined up to go, I just want to know what things should I be looking out for that can (and will) go wrong. I have heard the ball joints shit themselves etc. Any other problems to look out for with these?

Will be on the hunt for some coilovers, a cat back exhaust and some wide wheels soon too once I get the car.

Cheers.
