93 SC300 build

[YARDMAN]

I just got the car a few weeks ago and i have been doin general maintainance and getting the car up and running properly. First thing im doing is the interior im going to reupholster all the panels, doors, dash, headliner with black to get rid of the ugly and dirty tan interior and then dying the carpet to match if i cant find a black carpet. Then Im cleaning up the trunk and adding my system back there. Then im having the engine bay cleaned. Lastly in trying to find some 19" g35 rims for cheap to slap on there for the mean time and some lowering springs ( i can use supra springs also they are the same) so if anyone has any or know where i can get some. This is the general plan for the car so far. heres a few pics of the car as she sits now.

I didn't mean it in a negative way. If it came off that way, I apologize. The car looks good...I am sure you are going to make it exactly how you want it...Definitely keep us updated! If you have any questions or need anything, just let me know...

[TROLL]

na he was just saying potention or potential? just a typo, really not even worth talking about...

[sc300tt]

ohh...duh..I'm retarded...I'll edit that.

[C-bass]

woops. i was confused because for like 5 minutes i had a brain fart and i couldnt think of what it meant and then i realized what he was really trying to say.. sorry i didnt mean to be a dick at all. you car looks like itll turn out real nice!

[YARDMAN]

THANX GUYZ..
As far as power goes im going to go turbo next spring i just gotta get it funning right. now im looking tor a stock or aftermarket exhaust cuz mine was cut and unrepairable. Ill post it in the wtb section.

yo man. looks like you have your work cut out for you.

check out clublexus.com. they have a pretty good classifieds section especially for SC's.

UPDATE: Picking up some 19" ADR wheels tomorrow and getting the exhaust fixed this weekend. I took some pics but ill put it up later today. I was also thinkin bout keepin the duals cause the more i looked at the single the less i liked it.

[YARDMAN]

Im thinking about repainting the sc300 in a 2 tone paint. im using the blue from the M3 and the Onyx black from the Lexus

Ima post a side view pic of my car so that someone can photoshop these colors on it for me. Make the black meet the blue at the body line all the way over.

[YARDMAN]

Update: got the wheels today and they are great. The guy he bought it from had sprayed it with chrome paint and its pealing off so ima have to sand it all down and repaint them also they have some curb rash so eh for the price its cool till i get beter ones for the summer time. They are ADR M- Sport 19 x 8.5 all the way around with a 35mm offset wrapped in Bf goodrich scorcher tires 235-35-19 with about 60% left on them and the best part is i only pain $100 thats right $100 dollars for all four lol

Next on the list is getting my exhaust fixed for inspection and lowering
after that then maybe a body kit if i can find one i like and then paint.

Heres a pic of the wheel i got

[YARDMAN]

yea i put one wheel on to see how it looks ima sand it down and paint it all black when we paint the car maybe a blue lip and black spokes if we have enough paint left over lol. it looks good but the car needs to be lowered badlyyyy its like a monster truck. the wheels stick out a bit on the rear but i think when its lowered it will tuck in nicely. ill take pics tomorrow cuz since i only put one wheel on it wouldnt make sence to take pics

[YARDMAN]

Ok i finally got the wheels on and did a few other things. I didnt get the downpipe from crazy rays because they said its a federal offense to sell it with the catalytic converter on it, so they made me waste 2 hours fightin with a car to get it out. The wheels arent perfect but that will be remedied when i paint the car cuz ima sand them down and paint them. I also got rid of them side buick lookin things and debadged the trunk im waitin for the putty to dry so i can sand it down maybe tonight or tomorrow.Anyways heres some pics.

those rims look beat..

[YARDMAN]

The person who he got them from had them redone in chrome and it wasnt done properly so the chome is stripping ima take them back off and sand them down and have them repainted when i do my car. but hey for a hundred bucks for some 19" rims cant complain...
