Got a set of Supra TT wheels, hard to find these days. Pulled off the Volks from earlier and threw these on. Love the more understated look. Still debating on whether or not to lower it.

Beautiful example of an SC.

I washed and waxed the SC yesterday. Came out pretty nice considering the paint is slowly fading.

Default MSD On My SC300 Today

So after running my NA-T for a couple years I felt like the spark was breaking up around 4K RPM. I closed the plug gap to .026 and that helped. I decided to add an MSD ignition. I used the following parts.

MSD Street Fire 5520
MSD Tach Adapter 8910EIS
MSD Blaster Coil 8207

It runs and pulls so much better. No breaking up at any RPM.

if you do this, know that the trigger is the white wire that runs to the original coil.

I mounted the Street Fire and Tach Adapter inside the front bumper cover.

Here are some pictures.

Hopefully not destroyed it. We just got it. We replaced the fan with a Mishimoto dual electric fan. The battery in the car (we just got the car) was not the original and was too big. I pulled the battery out of my 1984 4Runner and my son didn't notice the terminals were reversed when he hooked it up. We blew the 120amp ALT fuse, 7.5amp ING fuse, and the 20amp Radio fuse. Replaced all of them and hooked the battery up correct. Now the car will not start. It will turn over, but not start. I pulled the codes and got a 12 and a 14. Where do I start? Did I implode the ECU?
