Cool YeA My Build Up

More like a place I can show you guys my little updates LoL, well I have had my SC3 for a little over 2 years and just now am I starting to really mod it you can say. Its been a slow process and its gonna keep being slow so everytime I have a new update I bump another threads. So I just made my own thread and update it as I go, ultimately I hope to have this mean machine of mine basicaly done by 2012 LoL.

Little back story I picked her up in eairly 2008 with me just being the 3rd owner with a little over 89k miles. Here she was in the back of the Lexus dealer just chillin waiting for a new daddy...

Donk status


Next to my homies GS430 and 1Gen GS3


Interior was pretty damn clean



Fresh low miles


Didint take long to get the new feet oem GS300's and HiD's



Then came my ISx50 Stocks and the worst mod yet CUT SPRING (dont do it)

Did the cluster LED and other LED's in the interior

Which brings us here to today



I have some new 19's that I am in the process of painting (wont be my last se of wheels SSR SP3's mmm)



Plans for the end of the year are finish painting rims install the new Supra TT bbk I am also in the process of rebuild and paint.


I already cut my rear fenders for the new rollers (looks better now)


Now I just need to finish my 97 Front bumper and paint it and get the rest of my 97+ Kit.

Plans for the new year are

* Start the black interior conversion I already have gated shifter, wood 3 spoke steering wheel and 98 gauge cluster. Still need to get the SC430 seats and black carpet and dor panels. Eventualy It will be black wood trim with Saddle leather upholstery and black suede roof liner
* Audio/Video upgrade
* Finish the 97+ kit and possibly get the BIGWIN lips and do the StarFire Pearl Paint
* Start my NA-T build which in my opinion is going to be the longest part of my build so thats why I choose to tackle it last

Thanks for looking guys, I will update as I make some sort of progress again I have big plans just not balling out of control like some guys on the boards. My build is a SLOW process but I will be making progress LoL

Do not do it!!! I repeat do not do it!!!!. I just finished putting in some blocks to raise up the front temporarily till I get my coilovers next month. I will never ever chop springs ever again and that is a promise. It has been and will always be a nightmare to deal with!!!!
