Default just a quick pic of whats replacing gs 400

the creation ha begun

my guys showed up yesterday with wrenches in hand and devoured the poor defenseless coupe

autocouture kit was test fitted perfectly and off to be painted , can u say ugly wheels and stock height , that will be cured by the end of the week with &swiss 20's and rotora 6/4 setup being donated by big brother gs4 and coilovers by teins should be by end of the week


a week or so after that turbo and r154 tranny goes in and new custom interior should be in by next week


this should be right around 475-525 rwhp

Wow Congrats Ed for really pulling it off... Looks like you found a great conditioned SC in good form.. I think the end result is going to be amazing just like the GS4 was.. BBK and 20's on a SC.. priceless..

Glad to see you finally made that move to the SC Ed...Im sure it'll look as great as the GS did given your quality tastes in mods

Ahh, an SC I see... Nice choice... I am sure it's going to look and drive fantastic!

P.S.
I miss my SC, be sure to install an idiot avoidance system on yours.
