Default New Member 1997 Supra NA 5spd

First post here, not sure if there are many supra owners on this site, but club-nat and the supra forums wont approve my registration activation, and theres not much traffic on either one anymore. Hoping to get some good information on going na-t with my car. Hers a couple pics of it. I just got done putting a blitz nur spec-r catback and xxr 521 wheels.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi! I'm a happy Toyota Soarer owner from Russia. Name is Roman.
My Soarer is powered by 1JZGTE TT slightly boosted up just over 300 hp (Blitz ECU, custom air intake & exhaust systems)
I have a set of 4-2 Supra brakes, Cusco strut bars, TRD LSD, and I'm going to install Titanmotorsport's sway bars just in about two weeks

New peep here
Proud owner of a rare 2000 SC300 pearl white with silver badges. Picked it up at 40,000 getting close to 120,000 trouble free miles now. So I have read that there were only 300 of this year of SC made can any chime in as to weather that is true or not

I might not be too new here but ClubLexus tells me I am so here it is, My Screen Name is Realslow Ive owned alot of Nissans as well as many other cars (My lexus cars-2 Sc400's and my new Sc300) Ive been out of the scene for about 3 years now and want to build a car or 2 before i try to buy a house and sign my life away. I recently just purchased a 94' Sc300 auto that I would like to do something with and I do believe this is the place to find some vision,info, and some friends to help me get there...

Looking forward to good time on the site

Default Yet another new guy... '94 SC300

Hey guys! New owner of a 1994 SC300.

Previously, I've had a lot of other cars - WRX, WRX STi, S2000, 350z, an '11 5.0 Mustang... decided to give up the car note for awhile and buy something cash as I'm in the process of purchasing a home and figured I might be able to use the extra overhead if something comes up.

Onto the SC300 - a friend's grandparents were selling their car. They've been the only owners, bought it off the lot in the Bay Area (where I'm from, originally). It's only done 114k miles..and it's a manual! It's got some interior issues just like every other SC apparently, and there's a decent gouge in the driver side quarter panel, but I only paid $2,500 for it so I figure I came out ahead. Big plans for this car!

Default new sc400 owner

i just got my hands on a stock 93 sc400 last month. 198k miles. i didnt know much about them but after this little bit of time with her im in love. it needs all the common repairs, control arm bushings, power steering pump leaking, dash leds. i also plan on doing full tune up timing belt, water pump, plugs wires etc. then comes the customizing and performance. im going to revamp the internals, throw a supercharger on it, possibly with the tundra 4.7. coilovers, upgraded sway bars, rims, tires, and paint. any great suggestions are welcome, ive been searching this forum left and right for ideas. also looking at all the possibilities with my intake as far as bfi, and transmission upgrades. ill also be redoing the leather as it is pretty beat. its been raining here in florida but ill have pictures of my stock green girl soon.

Default Paulz 92 lexus

Hello there from the sunny state of az.My name is Paul K. and I just [about 2 and a half months ago]bought a 92 Lexus SC-400 . A friend of mine had a new SC-400 back in the 90s and I always liked that car so when I needed something else to drive I bought this. Named her Goldie, only paid 1300 for her so I new she needed work.Turns out she needed a bit more than I figured.Being 55 years old I figured that this car would be a good choice for me instead of driving my restored 1969 SS-396 Elcamino. So far I have enjoyed driving her and have put 4000 miles on her already.So far I have done the timing belt,water pump, job complete with crank seals and cam seals. The other major problem that the guy I bought her from never mentioned was the alluminum crossmember that holds most of the front end components and the engine was almost broken in half, so I changed that and all the bushings and the motor mounts.Since doing all that work the car has been running well and I have been enjoying driving it. So even though I am new to these cars I have had a fair amount of learning on it already. So if I can be3 any assistance just ask away maybe I can help in those dept.s. I will try to upload a picture or 2 if I can.
