If you're looking to do more than daily the car I would go with the 5spd SC300. You've already stated you WANT a 5spd and you can go NA-T or swap a gte into it without too much trouble. To make the SC4 faster (than stock) you'll prolly end up spending more money for less gains and still have the auto.

 

i want a sc400.

 

Seriously?

If that's how you refer to how a car looks, I'd hate to see your examples for how a car performs... Don't want to imagine what a 400 HP SC400 compares to, with your ideas..

 

...it is, but that might not be a bad thing.
I've always wanted a 5spd and do mods to it, but I've only ever owned an sc400. So I dont know the difference. And with me TRYING (but not being able to) sell my 400 I'm stuck with it for now; so I'd almost like to hear what sc3 owners have to say about sc4 owners in comparison (and vice versa), good or bad.

 

The 400 is a great car but everytime I drive mine I wish it had a third pedal.

 

Oh no you didnt!
I have more love for the UZ in my pinky than you have for that 6-banger in your whole body! LOL

If you want to break the mold and not fall in the general crowd the UZ is a great platform. If you dont mind being just another face in the crowd......

Nevermind, some people will never understand.................

 

Hey ScottURnot, got any cam in that monster, if so where did you purchase, and can in get a sound clip.

 

Last motor had stock cams. David at Lextreme has some stock re-grinds that are a nice upgrade, probally a sound clip or two over there. Now if you are really serious, Kelford in New Zealand has great cams. They have quite a few profiles to choose from. They are not regrinds so they maintain a stock base circle. The 4.7L I am working on right now is getting a set of one off custom ground Kelfords anlong with a shimless valvetrain. See the build in my signature link.

 

thanks buddy

 

Ok.. I see I hit a soft spot for some... I just wanted to know which would be the over all choice. I think what i'm going to do is purchase the SC300 (whitegirl) and Sell my SC300 (blackgirl) and hopefully pick up another SC400 (blackgirl)

 

A tad bit off subject, but why the white girl and black girl names?

One better by DPW and the other onyx black or whatever it came in. LOL.

 

It started with me always wit the fellas and the cars... My girl could not believe how much time we spent working on them a the driving them... So one day she said she was tired of playing second to that White *****!! I said huh? I said who the hell u talknin bout.. (I was thinkin? I aint been wit a white chick.. Not lately) any way she went on about it then she said the car!!! every since you got it i get less and less attention... So then I got a Black car.. So she said ok now i have to deal with a Black ***** in our life... So there my Girls on the side.. Black and White!!! the best of both worlds!! i got my white girl a tan (primed) for painting and said oh hell naw 2 BB's one of em gotta go!!!
It's all a big joke!! she loves to ride in them.. but the funny thing is... When ever she rides with me... The cars act up sometimes to the point we need to get em towed.. thats when they really become *****ES!!! out my mouth and hers!!
