It looks absolutely beautiful. Everything was done very nice. I wonder if there are any pics of your old SC floating around? You're a true SC enthusiast my friend. Keep it up!

honestly, your car is beautiful. you seemed to conserve the luxury aspect of the car while giving it a mighty mean engine that can lay the wood. I love that dichotomy. the rims are perfect.

Wow...thanks for all the compliments....i truly appreciate it....
im definitly a true sc enthusiast...loved these cars since day 1.....

steering wheel is a rx330 wheel....direct bolt on

wheels are 19x8.5 front on a 235 35 19
rears are 19x9.5 on a 275 35 19
michelin pilot sport ps2 tires
these tires are INCREDIBLE tires....incredible grip...quiet and smooth...BFG's are great...these are just a lil better!

car has a toyomoto stage 2 kit with head gasket 440 inj
cast manifold and a 60-1 turbo putting out 15psi making about 400 rwhp....on pump gas.....tranny has a shift kit tranny cooler and mobil 1 fluid with a modified stock converter...

the screen for the navi had my home address so i whited it out for safety issues...no **** hiding going on...lol

my old sc was for sale on ebay....dont know what happened to it now....

Ed sorry you missed the party i would have enjoyed your company!

i did have a full Wald kit on the old car...very subtle clean kit....and wasnt cheap to buy...ship ..paint or install...i stayed simple with a 97 upgrade....

car has allways lived in miami in a garage its whole live...been very well taken care of by all owners and will stay that way with me....

i do miss the cup holder where the EGT gauge is...i ahve considered relocating the gauge...lol..

the car drives very nice...the 1-2 shift is a lil firm...but you get used to it...
i miss my 6speed but the auto is very nice for daily driving....i have a 240sx with a 1jz 5spd im getting going...so that should curb my craving for a stick shift...

if you got questions feel free to ask.....im happy to talk about things...

Very nice ride but still not up to par with the *ahem* the OG-beast you had back in the day..You definitely set the bar high with your first, but it seems like you are coming along nicely... Congrats on your new home and family!

i did get a lil crazy with the 1st sc...a lil too far for my reality..this one is much more realisitic.....im not trying to be the best...just trying to build a nice clean car i can enjoy.....

clear corners i got from a friend who imports stuff...his aim address is
SOARER11
if you im him he could probally get you a set....

the home is comming along nicely and the wifey is 9 months pregnant with our 1st lil boy......so the next lexus fan will be born soon....

Tha color seems so hard to keep fresh, you never see one looking good. I don't see a lot of shine in the finish but looks to be in good shape. I'd love to see it in person for a better perspective.

Nice to see another 97+ teal mist. We'll be twins soon.
