Default Rear Diffuser for the SC??

I've searched but have been unsuccessful in locating one. They make them for the Supra, I don't see why there's not one for the SC?

You could get a Supra one to fit, just need to cut it and extend it in the middle. But give Shine Auto (Auto Couture Replica company) a call, they make some bad *** diffuser's

I have been considering a rear diffuser also, but with the stock 92 rear bumper, 97 front and sides. But as the OP stated, cant find any specifically for the SC. All I can find are either universal 3-piece ones, or Supra.

yeah, that would be pretty interesting if you could pull this off with a 92 rear? I think it would look pretty good, let's us know if you end up doing this.

None taken I'm sure.

A diffuser, in an automotive context, is a shaped section of the car underbody which improves the car's aerodynamic properties by enhancing the transition between the high-velocity airflow underneath the car and the much slower freestream airflow of the ambient atmosphere. It works by providing a space for the underbody airflow to decelerate and expand so that it does not cause excessive flow separation and drag, by providing a degree of "wake infill". The diffuser itself accelerates the flow in front of it, which helps generate downforce.
