Default Pictures of my 92 SC300 5-speed

Just installed new Termist 17inch Chrome wheel with Bridgestone Potenza RE750 235/45WR17.

Plans for the winter are to lower the car and add a turbo by the spring if I can get Toyomoto to return my calls and emails.

might wanna lower the car, and reseal or buy new headlights... and maybe some tint... that'd be killer. And after putting all that chrome on the car, S-AFC to retune your air/fuel ratios to makeup for the weight! (Or just screw it and turbo the little lady!)


just my .02

Rims look much, much better than the stock 15s!

Default Thanks for the feedback

I know I have other projects for the car. But one question

What is 'S-AFC to retune your air/fuel ratios to makeup for the weight'

with Apexi S-AFC you can remap your air/fuel ratios and gain HP -- I think it's around 25 RWHP or something... I'm a little fuzzy -- I've been away for about a year and half.

Anyhow, the 5sp SC300 can make just as much HP as the early SC400s kudos to the slush box tranny and a marginal differance in HP (225 vs 250).


John

PS: Remember, one pound of rotating mass is equal to 8 lbs of stationary mass...

EDIT: If you're gonna turbo charge your car anyways, AFC isn't a bad idea... look around, you'll see the N/A-T guys with Apexi AFC and AFR units in the glove box, or mounted in the console.

Nice 5spd, your paint looks like it's in excellent condition.

The paint is in excellent condition.

Mirror - wet - 3 D look. I get a lot of comments about the car. Looks better than brand new.
