well I think i will go with the sc300 5speed the bad part is the car has around 189,000 miles so if i dont like it ill look for a clean sc400 i dont want to do a lot of mods maybe a turbo charger or super charger on either one down the road just basic mods but right now i like the sc400 with less miles

could we PLEASE use punctuation?
For me i got a sc3 just because i wanted a stock 5spd without having to swap one in. I'm not huge on torque, so I don't need what the V8 would offer me, my only "need" is a mt just because i wouldn't want a 2nd car that's more boring than my daily driver.

The only problem with modding the 400 is the aftermarket support, or lack thereof. A blower or turbo setup on a 1UZ is not a bolt-on affair.

sc300 because
-im already familiar with the 2jz-gte with my previous MKIV supra TT, so working on the GE is relatively easy
-5 speed. Autos just suck the life out of driving
-Easy to install turbo kit which pretty much bolts right on other than drilling a hole for the oil return.
-The I6 in general has the best exhaust note. ever.
