SC300/SC400 New Member Thread! Introduce yourself here!
#2686
I have been lurking on here for a couple of weeks and figured now is as good a time as any to register. I am no stranger to Lexus as I bought an LS400 new when they were first introduced. I got rid of the LS400 and later bought an LS430 that I absolutely loved. Since then I have gone the SUV route with the Mercedes-Benz ML500 and now my modded Chevy Avalanche w/cammed LS6.
I am a LONG time Nissan enthusiast and have a stable of cars in my garage/storage ranging from 3 240SX's, a 300ZX TT, a 350Z, a GT-R, an R32 Skyline, and even a Datsun 2000 Roadster. In fact, I even have a website called TEXASNISSANS.COM. Nevertheless, I have always had a yin to get myself an SC300/400. (I already managed to find an AE86 project car, so all my "yins" are presently satisfied.) An opportunity recently presented itself where I found a Pearl White '92 SC400 CHEAP, but it needs some TLC in all areas.
My goal is to completely refurbish the car to semi-show quality, add some performance and beauty upgrades, and boost the V-8 with a S/C. But for now, it is just a matter of doing some long overdue maintenance and repairing years of neglect beginning with the rear main seal and sagging doors.
I look forward to your input.

Waddup guys "new" member to this forum but have been lurking for about a year, mostly on the SC threads haha.
Still in the search of finding a 5spd SC but have had no luck at all. Been flaked on many and others have been not as expected in person. Hope to come back into this thread and edit with car pics when I do get one. If anyone wants to sell one in the bay area let me know!

Whats up Club Lexus, new member here. Ive had a account for about 6 months now but just now doing my 1st post. Originally from Hawaii but grown up in Utah. I picked up a 2000 Lexus SC300 about 5 months ago. Ive been on the look out for a SC for a little bit and came across this 2000 Lexus I found out in NC when i was living out their. High miles but got a killer deal on it, bought it from an older lady that was the 2nd owner so it was in pretty good shape. Got some plans for it so keep an eye out for my build thread

Hi everyone, I have been lurking around for a couple months but now decided to join in on the fun. I recently purchased a 92 SC400 for 2000 dollars as a project car for myself and my 14 year old son. Really hoping I did not over pay it needed a starter and come to find out it was not as easy as I figured to replace so I had a crash course in replacing one over two days, 10 hours and living on this forum.. I have it cleaned up and I have found a lot of great info here already, main thing now after it started was cherry red exhaust and nasty flaking rims, so more work to go. By the way I am Mike and I live in North Carolina.
