Default Finally my sc300 overhaul

Sup guys,

I have now owned this SC for about 1.5 years and finally taking the leap to the single build. I have also taken the opportunity since it's down to redo the suspension, brakes, new wheels, body work and just about everything I can until I run out of money .

1jz swap was done; only mods were dual magna flow 2.5" up to midpipe, dropped on trd shocks and apexi springs, tt chrome wheels and the rest was stock when purchased.



Changed to 18x8.5 and 18x10 Maya wheels, put on the HKS BOV, Intake, and polished a few turbo pipes(pointless but looked good).




Last chang before my current build was some CE Mesh 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rears put 20% on all windows and 35% on windshield.



Keep posted for new pics and info on my current overhaul

Nice progress, love the new wheels and look. Car looks mean in the second to last shot!

Any ideas for what turbo your planning to go?

I wish I had more money to fix up the SC :/

lookin good sir. Quick question: why not run hard IC piping to the intake manifold so you can weld the BOV closer to the throttle body

Thanks bro, the wheels looked pretty bad *** but I got rid of them and have some Axis Hiro coming on. I have a Prec 67mm dual Ball Bearing with .81ar. These cars are an addiction and a money pit lol

Just fix the angle of the Soarer emblem in the front bumper and you should be good to go.
