I am an OG and I noticed those of you posting on this thread are all really new to the club, so, first, I welcome you here. This is the most widely accessed and membered Lexus forum in the world. I have been a member of CL for many, many years. There is a lot of good camaraderie here, and there has been a good sense of "brotherhood" in the forum.
I am posting because I want to encourage you all to be patient while asking for information on the boards. The SC forum has had a lot of members, and there are few subjects that have not been thoroughly discussed and researched at one time or another here. So when a member suggests you "search", it is because there is information on it in this forum. Sometimes it may take a few minutes to search, but you can gererally find the information without too much difficulty.
GL on your future searches and your experiences on this board.
Elites, I understand your frustration, but please do note that you rudely responded to a Forum Moderator, and even though you were frustrated, you might consider a little more patience, and definitely show a little more respect to the moderator. He is here to help you, and even though you weren't feeling it, he made a good suggestion.
Great info Luis. I did not know about these guys. I sent my cluster and AC controller to Lextech, and I am very satisfied with their work. I also changed the colors. The early clusters used bulbs not LED's, and Lextech's latest version of their white "32" is a tremendous improvement over stock.
ishoot, good example of "helping".
Wood, I would tend to think that people just don't know, not that they don't want to share....
Keep in mind guys that people don't just read every thread that is posted up on the boards. So again, may I suggest some patience when looking for information.
Enjoy CL guys, and please do not get offended by my comments and suggestions to each of you. I am only attempting to make your stay here a little better.....

Good post SC400TT you are right, sorry neurocity mod. I had just recently joined this board and have been looking around for the answers to the lighting thing also. I had just come off the front page sticky and read where the mods weren't supposed to "just say search" so when I got that response I got a little hot etc. I shouldn't have done it and apologize. How was he to know that i had just come from scouring Lextech.Org and it led me here to this board actually. It was kinda like phone tree hell where you get transferred around over and over. I should have explained that instead of being a smart ****. Everyone is right, this is an absolute fantastic board. I just got my SC400 in October and I didn't know it had a cult following and was very happy and proud to find out otherwise. I am now excited about restoring my car to pristine shape and glad to have a place to gain knowledge and insight about the inner workings. Thank you for the kind welcome SC400TT. SC1992 I am in Mount Juliet TN and about to do the Lextech.Org thing where I send in the cluster. I just met CarFreak (who knows a TON about SC's and has a Gorgeous SC300 5 speed which is nearly flawless) last night in person and he helped me out tremendously. He lives in the Nashville area also. Also, RtR Forever my friend. PM me anytime. what part of Bama you in?

Elite, you are welcome. 
You newbs are all right in my book!! You take constructive suggestions positively and humbly. You are great additions to this forum. My hat is off to you!!
I can't wait to see how you all progress with your rides. I love the SC. It is a phenomenal car. Once of the best coupes ever made, IMHO!! In fact I love mine so much, I have modded it extensively. And it is almost done, a one-off V8 twin turbo. Check it out here: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...oject-car.html. It is a long read so don't plan to read it all at once. You can see the trials, tribulations and triumphs I have faced over 4+ years to get this project to where it is.
Here is a link to ScottURnot's supercharged SC: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...d-4-7l-v8.html
Here is a link to Deron's car: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...storation.html
Just a few that you may want to look at that have had extensive mods made to them.
