I'm attending Rx school in Texas, so I bought the Tundra just for the haul/transportation out there. Under the hood is the stock V8 with bolt ons (I/H/E). Decided not to invest more money into the OEM engine as I've decided in the final evolution, I'm going to swap out the entire drivetrain for a crate LS7 with T56, put in a full cage, strip out more, and redo all the wiring for milspec.


19x8.5 +22
19x10.5 +35 (but I run a 5mm spacer to clear the rear brakes, so more like +30)

It's not a full cage, just a race roll bar to accommodate the harnesses and add a little rigidity to the car. The car will get a full cage whilst the LS7 swap goes in.

Thanks guys for the compliments. I really did miss the car, there just isn't another like it on the road. It's so easy to spot out the lines and smooth curves of the SC over all the other cars out there. Feels good to be back!

 

glad your back in your SC

 

Nice, not a fan of the kit tho, other then that looks good

 

any future plans?

 

more pics please!! lol, looking good man!

 

holy dream car.... haha I'd be very glad to have it back too. Nice work on that thing

 

I do like the color combo and the wheels is just another nice touch on the complete setup.

 

That's a clean SC! I think this is the first time I've ever seen your car.

How is the fitment on those Vertex fenders and did you pull your rear fenders? I wanted to get the Vertex fenders, but I was worried that they might stick out too much.

 

sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

 

right now, i'm working on aerodynamics, so i'm going to be looking into getting the underbody set up and then probably put on an aeromotions dynamic S2 spoiler.

Vertex fenders were spot on, didn't need to do anything to get em to work. The rear fenders were pulled slightly and then cleaned up by my bodyshop (they also cut the inner fender lip to allow travel) The vertex fenders actually don't stick out too much, as you can see from the slight head on and rear side pics, it just bubbles slightly out to accommodate the extra inch.

 

Very clean, I'm impressed :O

 

LS7... SC7... SC427... LSC7... SC7.0... LSC7.0... SC7L...
Time to think about custom license plates!!
Btw, hope you are still enjoying those rims as much as I did, looks great!

 

Nice to see you back Ant! I still remember those days of you having the original Vertex and stock wheels. Definitely has come a long way since then. Looks great as always.

 

Wow!!! LS7!!! Your awesome. I gotta see that in action. Oh man drifting would be fun if I had that motor.

 

I shall probably name her little like a domestic and go with the 427 in a good sized font and then SC700 in smaller size underneath type badging for fenders. Yeap, rims are great, except sadly I think I'm going to use them as DD rims once the swap is complete... gonna go for more meat Heh, I just realized, after all this time, I finally got you that pic of the rear brakes behind the volks.

Thanks, yea I remember those days, riding slammed on OEM rims, had that dumped civic/integra look to it.

I may touch my hand in drifting again once I do the swap, though I'd still primarily be grip/time attack. I've already decided to keep it simple with just boltons, cam, and a mild port polish.
