How does your trunk stay up without a stick?

Very nice choice on wheels! Looks like you have a little dent to remove on the fender.

Hey mate, just wanted to say your SC looks delicious.
I have the same paint code as you, and am inspired to get mine looking in the same pristine condition as yours.

However mines only a 91 with a 97 front bumper. But will be getting the side skirts and bumper this year sometime.

HY!

The Coolers are fitted perfect, without any contact to other parts





very interesting is, the turn signal lamp have 3 contacts, but the cable only 2. is this in any country original?





last days i modified a IS200/300 catalytic to a 1 cell race catalytic



The new stainless steel pipe have 70mm (2 3/4") and the flange fits perfect to the original flange from the rear part of the exhaust.

3rd catalytic


original welded pipe



new mid-pipe



tomorrow i will check to fit the IS cat. on the pipe, i hope, i have enough clearance to the headshield on the car.

more tomorrow
