My SC300 build -
Just picked up my 92 5 speed with a 2JZGE with an NA-T setup on it. MA motorsports in Maryland did the turbo work and it's putting about 400 to the wheels. Love every second of driving it.
The interior is redone, new black leather. Looks and feels awesome. Big selling point for me in buying the car, knowing that was all done.
Needs front tires, alignment, probably redo brakes with BBK, and maybe redo the exhaust. The exhaust currently is single pipe and comes out at an angle from the back. I hate the way it looks.
Car drives solid, but definitely needs a couple steering components. Dropped on KYB's. 18" white (hate the color) staggered wheels.
The exterior has this purple that supposedly is a Skyline color, but I don't like it too much and it's horrible with bubbling and peeling. It's got a body kit but I took the side skirts off and I will probably take off the bumper which is poorly mounted. I want to go to a 97+ bumper, or maybe another body kit if i can find one that's not too low and not to garish. With it being lowered, I think a 97+ with a nice little lip would be perfect.
My goal is the deep kind of darker silver that the new Mustangs have. I think it's millenium silver. I want the simple stock spoiler, with the LED light if possible. I'd like the wheels to be gunmetal but I need to strip them down first to see what their base color is.
My buddy and I will begin the prepping process by sanding down all the crap paint areas, we'll get the new bumper (yet to be aquired) attached and then send it off to get painted.

I'm pretty sure it's that AIT one.
I'd gladly trade this kit for a 97+ bumper, or for another bumper that's decent and not obscenely low.
I'm actually hoping I can find a trade like that somewhere along the line. I have some 97+ tails I could throw in too. Figure I'd go 97+ tails and that body kit for a set of standard tails and a 97+ bumper. Or for this kit.

That's what I wanted at first, but I think with the car already lowered it might be too low.

I'll be removing my stock spoiler in the upcoming weeks and sealing the holes. I like the wingless look. I'll sell you my stock spoiler if you want. its the pre-97 duckbill
