I had a 95 SC and a 92 Sc at the same time last year. I asked my friend to run with me and we did a little drag race and my 95 did pull 1 and half car length ahead... but that doesn't mean anything( I drive better
)
Anyway, I have had 5 SCs now, and I can tell you, pre 98 Sc4 drives the same!!

^^ nope, the SC's are always the last to get the added goodies. we didnt' even get HID's when they started introducing them in 98 ![Frown](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
92-95 same engine same ratings 250hp/260tq tho it has been said over and over again by jbrady and others with proof from dynos that the actual flywheel hp is more likely 230hp.
96-97 engines got the bump in compression, change in cams, and other things i can't recall right now. those engines are moreso accurate in their ratings of 260hp/270tq.
98-00 engines obviously got the vvti's and got to 290hp/300tq.

Have you personally checked? The reason why I ask is because in 1995 the LS400 was OBD-II, and whether or not the 1995 SC400 is ODB-II or not may also help show which engine it has.
