For the 1uz just maintain it and keep it running well, it won't let you down. As for the rest of the car you can do suspension mods, body mods, interior etc to create yourself your own unique sc that has YOU written all over it. If I want crazy for myself, I'll pull one of the Jav's out or find a small lightweight Ford body and drop in my 406 T bird big block backed with my top loader and a 9inch to turn the wheels. Of course know one here knows what I'm talking about. LOL. Shop carefully for your sc parts, stay in budget, and learn how to work on it your self for the most part. It will cost some money, but it doesn't have to be an arm and leg. They are fine auto's, and a pleasure to drive.

Unique for me is just keeping my SC300 mostly stock. I get complements on it all the time on how damn clean/nice it is. That's what motivates me on my car, detailing the **** out of it lol.

I have a 98 SC400 Stance coils , Battle Version trac rod tie rods etc..super Q 2 way LSD , this thing is basically a V8 supra , I love messing with muscle cars , I cant wait to drop in my R154 manual , I can imagine ill be going thru tires fast...It might not have the HP of a turbo but its reliable and the power is on tap..

I feel like now's the time to get the manual swap done or never do it :/
Like there's still some parts available for it before they are all gone in a couple year or it'll just be way too expensive to get it done... just my 2 cents.
