i will keep all toys, best of both worlds, you can put the 92-96 front bumper to the 97 car. so you have the both of your liking, do whatever you want, so at the end you did it your way, sharing and seeking of info and knowledge are always helpful and great.you got a lil of everything needed, so all about executing it, glw project and keep us posted with pictures.

Just so tempting to keep both SC and sell my Auto TT Supra MKIV, keep my built 6 speed Supra MKIV. At the end I will have more money in my pocket and still have 3 car toys with my lifted 4x4 truck... The Supras are just holding too much money on them and I don't even use them.

Reason why I would love to keep this 1997 lexus SC400 , everything on it works even with 230k miles. And I paid less than I damn paid for that non running 1992 SC400







I was thinking, I will just beat the **** out of this 1uzfe till it konks out, then thats the time I will do a 2jzgte swap on it. Afterall, the garnet pearl sc400 2jzgte swap will keep me busy for a while.

1997 SC400 should now be ready for the professionals at the Paint Shop with just a little more sanding.... Will do that in the near future ... got no money to get it painted now ... am broke as a joke ... It will at least save me some $$$Benjamins by avoiding any major body work at the Paint Shop.

Time to work on the 1992 Garnet Pearl ... disassembly time is here !!!!!!!!!

Started taking out those fluid lines.... lots of them .. so make sure your pans are ready .. fluid will be every where .. coolant,engine fan fluid, tranny cooler fluid .



Once all those hoses are directed to the pans below , pulled the fan out and radiator out.
