Default Feels good to be back!!

Hey CL, I've been a member here for awhile, joined back in 09 when I bought my first sc3, it was a 98 platinum silver. I sold it several years ago and have been wanting another sc3 ever since, and the day finally came to me this past weekend when I bought my 99 black on black sc3. Here are the only pics I have right now

I'm a newbie with a newly purchased 213k 1997 sc400. I'm looking to get my car back to mint before I start modding. I'll definitely need some of your advice in the near future.

Smile FNG from South America

Hey Folks,

My name's Sese, from Guyana, South America. I've recently bought a '92 SC300 from the original owner, it's one of only two in this country, the other being a '95 SC400. So far I've exchanged rims (from 16" American Racing Torque thrusts to 18" Voltecs), deleted the mufflers and removed the cats(no smog laws here), and done the fog light conversion. Am presently searching this site for a free fsm to download as I need to properly sort out some issues. They're no trained mechanics here, so in the past it was just some shade tree mechanics and electricians messing stuff up in this car and I need to undo all those hacks.

Default 1996 SC300 5-speed

The car cleaned up so well, bird stains are buffing out nicely, and I've decided to buy it from my friend whom I was helping prep it for sale.!!! Now I really am an SC owner!!!! Will be looking for "subtle" mods on this forum soon.

I am new to the page, but I am selling said car on ebay right now. If I am allowed to post this info here, thanks. If its not allowed, I understand there are rules.
One owner
64,000 miles
5 speed
Jade / tan
Sat outside for the last few years and has bird dropping damage etc... to hood, roof, and trunk. Otherwise REALLY NICE!
NEW: master and slave cylinder, oil and filter, air filter, battery.
I have spent many, many hours detailing interior and getting the shine back on the exterior.
Drives fantastic!

Hello All,
I am new to the site, but not new to the brand.
I am currently working on reviving a 1993 SC400 that I have dubbed 'Project Fluffy'


1st Day Home into the garage


Current State


The Projects....


The Projects Getting Some Air


The Fleet
The current plan is to just get it able to pass my states DMV and then go from there, I will start a build thread.
Great to see so much information shared on this website and hopefully get some help from more of the seasoned vets to the vehicle. I come from mainly Toyota, and know the 3rd Generation 4Runner like the back of my eyelids so it will be refreshing to learn what Lexus decided to do then.

Cheers,
​​​​​​​Avi

Default New here and


Is this forum active still for sc300 or people I can ask help of for the 2jz I need to diagnose and possibly do the head gasket on? I’d like to have access to knowledgeable partial trolls if it has to be but I need some info because I’ve worked on many types of engines just not the 2jz.
