Default New from RI- 92 SC400

Hello everyone, my name is Kyle and I am from out in RI. I have been registered here for around a year I believe since I was looking for A 5-speed SC300 at the time but ended up with an Mk3 Supra. Fast forward to this weekend where I traded my 91 Mitsu Galant VR4 for a 92 SC400. Car needs some attention but overall I am looking forward to cleaning it up and having a nice car to cruise in.

Me and my father have a sizable collection, 11 cars total in the family. Other then this SC I have a 92 Plymouth Laser AWD, 90 Mustang LX 5.0 and 06 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel. This SC has some purple springs which look like they have been cut and it has rubber spring wedges in there. Car sits way too low for my liking, I already took the lip off so it is at-least drivable. I will be swapping to coilovers before I register it.

Could someone tell me what kind of wheels these are? The owner told me they were Work but they are not equips and I can not find them anywhere online.






Thanks for any Help!

If someone could tell me that would be great. I am trying to find that out for myself.

My plans- Get it back to being a "good" car to drive. Coilovers and raise it some (more than likely Megan), new tires, put seat belt receptacles back on the seats (has tan leather Supra TT seats with no seat belt latches). Replace plugs,wires,coils and distributor caps and get it to stop skipping. Then worry about why I get no sound from the radio. It has small stupid little problems but I plan to drive it and enjoy it. My other 2 cars have big cams and are uncomfortable to drive so I will keep it mellow with this.

This is my Love, I need to finish putting this back together before I get to work on the SC, a few weeks. Hoping to go 10's on pump gas this year.

Well I found out who makes the wheels. "Riverside", now I need to find out what model they are. They appear to be pretty damn rare since I cant find any info on the company besides they make trafficstars now.
