New to the SC group - another SC - 1JZ-GTE
I just wanted to introduce myself to the SC crowd, since I'm new to the 'coupe group.' I recently purchased a 1995 SC300 from bmsport ( Matt ) and I've been busy doing some mods. I'm not new to modding since I already have a 2004 GS430 with some work done to it. Of course I get most of ideas from CL members and friends! Anyway here's a rundown on my 'new' project:
-Custom Toyota Barcelona red 3R3 paint ( Matt had this done prior to me purchasing the car and I had it matched when I added a bodykit ), black interior
-Auto Couture bodykit
-1JZ-GTE with R154 5speed swap ( still stock, but not for too long )
-front mount intercooler
-Supra TT 3.76 LSD
-GReddy Turbo Timer and Boost controller
-HRE 840R's 20 X 9 and 20 X 11.5, Conti 245/35 and 305/25 ( will change to 245/30 in front when I wear out existing tires )
-Zeal Function XS coilovers
-Rotora 6/4 piston 355mm brakes front and rear
-Daizen swaybars
-new front OEM upper and lower control arms
-custom full 3 inch stainless mandrel bent exhaust w/Magnaflow polished cans and big rolled tips
-Pioneer AVIC Z3, JL Audio 300/4v2, JL Audio 250/1v2, JL Audio XR6.5 coax in rear deck and XR6.5 components in front, ED SQ10 sub, Clifford Matrix 12.5 security
-Carbing front strut tower bar
-Retro TSX HID headlights - Phillips 85122+ bulbs
Future plans include swap to big single turbo and I'm collecting hardware as we speak I will also be doing a leather swap on the interior, too. Glad to be a part of the SC crowd! A pic top follow...
