I just picked up a 2002 SC430 chassis. I've always wanted this car to build into a Formula Drift race car and have been looking for a deal for the past 4 years and last week I came across a deal I couldn't pass on. The whole car was stripped down to just about nothing but all the body panels and the dash is the only thing left inside. This is exactly how I wanted it other then missing the subframe's and suspension parts.

So my Question I'm looking to buy the subframe's and all the suspension parts plus hubs and brakes. Everything to make it a roller. Now do any other Lexus or Toyota models subframe's or suspension parts interchange with the SC430? If so what are all the other cars with the same parts?

I know I can go on eBay and buy SC430 OEM parts no problem but wanted to know what other cars are the same because I've seen GS300 subframe's for way cheaper then the SC430 and would rather save a little money. Also keep in mind this is going to be a totally different motor then stock and will be building custom motor mounts. But would like to make sure all the arms are the exact same and mount in the exact same location as the OEM style so I'm not making a Frankenstein setup.

Thank you for your time and sorry for the novel!

Congrats on your acquisition. I'm excited to see what you come up with. I will say that I have some of the OEM suspension parts for sale in the classified section, specifically the front and rear sway bars. If you're interested in purchasing them, let me know. Additionally, if you want an upgraded suspension (which is what I've done, thus the spare OEM parts I am selling), search above for threads with keywords "SC430 Sway Bar Upgrade," and "SC430 Polyurethane / PU Bushings." Good luck! Looking forward to your build!

...you might try to cross reference the 99-2004 Gs300 with the Sc430. I used rear shocks from the Gs on the rear of my Sc. I know a few parts from both cars share the same part #'s, but not sure how much of the rear is the same
