What's up CL, new to the site, just gonna cut to the chase. Just bought a 92 sc300 shell, had a 2jz-ge turbo 5spd setup but the dude I bought it from swapped it into an FD rx-7 so now I'm stuck with a project I can't walk away from. Lol! Fresh red paint, TT suspension, and TT wheels. Just gutted a/c, heat, ABS, and the chassis harness. Long road ahead of me yet but it's a start.

I recently purchased a 92 sc300 w/Manuel Trans. I'm new to the forum world and also to the 2jz motor setup. So Amy advice on what i can do to make this classic the vehicle i know it can be would be great.
The motor runs great, i think Trans might need sync row's. . . If that's even right lol. Any advice on where i can find parts for a good price. .

Hey guys and girls. The name is Nate. Im from Central Florida. I have a 95 SC300 and had it for about 7 months now. The car recently got stolen and it was pretty much stripped but got it back about 2 months ago. Found the person that took the car so I killed him and fed his remains to my goldfish ....jk
The car really was stolen and stripped so I am trying to put it back together. So far most of the interior is together but its in rough shape. I look forward on buying alot of things from the ones that have parts to sell and I look forward on giving as much help as I can and helping others when I can.

Hello all. My name is Danny iam from Miami FL. I just picked up my first Lexus a 93 SC400. Iam not planning on any major mods just getting it right and researching all the options first. Starting out with major tune up type stuff. Rebuilding noisey steering rack, distributor caps-rotors, front main seal, camseals, timing belts, water pump, thermostat, trans fluid-strainer replacement.
