Hello all. Crusher103 checking in. I'm about to take hold of a SC400 with a 6spd in it. its a perfectly running car but needs some interior and paint work. So im very excited about getting to work on that car. I also have a VQ35hr swapped turbo'd I30 and currently DDing a 545i which is the family car, so not mine and sees no modification.

Default Hello!

Hi, my name is Derrick and I own a 93 SC300. So far, I have Work VS-XX on them; LS400 fronts and Supra TT rear brakes,TRD Supra front strut bar, and Fortune Auto coilovers waiting to be thrown on. Currently inoperable due to a coolant leak in a hose somewhere, but I got the car about a month ago. Just wanted to introduce myself, since I plan to be doing all my research on here anyways haha

Will do once I ensure the car is drivable spring rates are 14k/10k and I don't plan on dumping it really low.

New to the forum. Picked up a 98 SC400 two weeks ago from family. Meticulously maintained you can't tell it's got 180k on it. Will be doing many upgrades in the future. Just waiting for it to get warm.

Long time lurker, even before I got an SC300. Now I'm thinking of selling it but am trying to find reasons to keep it. Hopefully I can get some inspiration on here.

Very well done man, white is hands down the best color on an SC.

Default 1995 Sc300

Hi
I recently a purchased a one owner stock 95 SC300.
A senior owned car from south Florida. It only has 101K.
Timing belt was recently done and maintenance was up to date.
So far so good.
I am in my 50's so I looking forward to keeping it up and enjoying the car.
I am thankful for forums like these especially you hit a mechanical bump in the road!
It is white with ivory interior.

Hello,
I don't have a SC..., yet. I have a 2JZ that my son bought. We are going to rebuild and then will be putting in a car. He wants a IS. I want an SC. We'll see who wins. We currently drive a Porsche 911 and 240SX.

Default New to new cars! Funny that 1992 is a very new car to me ^0^

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and new to having something that's not what most people would call ancient. I run old Toyotas and Datsuns from the 60s, 70s, and 80s usually. So with that said I'll be digging through here for as much information as I can get. Currently my car is a 92 SC300, NAT, stock 5 speed, on BC coilvers and some other little mods here and there. I plan on first fixing what ever just happened with my turbo or wastegate, "zero boost." Followed up with the dizzy delete and either a megasquirt 3x or just swap in the aristo ecu. So that's my hello to everyone, now off to post in the wtf do you think is wrong with my turbo thread XD

Hey everyone, been a lurker for awhile now so I finally decided to sign up. The forums have tons of useful information I'm hoping to take a lot of it in and hopefully help anyone out if the opportunity presents itself.

Hi everyone, I've been a long time Toyota/Lexus fanboy. started out w/ an '86 Corolla, then got a '86 MR2. Now I'm back in the market looking for an SC400 (since Canada never got the memo of the SC300). Still debating between if I should get pre-'98 or post-'98 model. Really hope I can find a post-'98 model locally but they are rare breeds...
