Very clean car! I'm sure the 1st gen SC is a rare car in South America. I do like the entire car except the ebay tails and headlights. I think it would look better with the originals on there but thats just me. Any pictures of the engine bay?

Are those the factory "L" badges that came with the car? Those look much bigger than the USDM "L" badges.

The "L" badges come from a sc 430 and they are bigger than the originals sc300, it is what I found here.

1st gen SC are a rare car here, there are no more than 4 SC300, 2 SC400 and 2 Soarer all over the country.

During the next week I'm going to upload some pictures of all the process, engine convertion and painting but the car is at the mechanic now so I will take some pictures of the last mods in 3 more weeks.

I agree about the headlight, I don' t like them very much, I bought the originals but they have to be repaired first.

I like the color and the emblems. I also glad to hear that you have some original headlights and taillights. I think it would look alot better with those installed. You prolly have the cleanest SC in chile.. but we need some interior shots to prove it.. :-)

Nice car. How much power does that NA-T setup make?

My configuration can generate about 600whp but my transmission is automatic, with the lextream torque converter I'm expecting about 430whp in a safe way what is enough for me.
