Golden Knight Rises!
Hey everyone! since my car is being rebuilt, i made a build thread , so's heres a rundown, i bought a salvaged 1999 SC400, 178K, Golden pearl. with just the drivers side with most damage, and the passenger side nearly mint.
Got pictures for you guys and as i get updates will be posted here!
Foggy Lights -_-
Cleaning up the mess inside with a buddy

At the house for the first time!
Getting my flat spare fixed.rotating tires
Getting my master Key cut/programmed after ECU Flash:
Finally got my tails looking evil again
Update: Last saturday i was finally going to the body shop after getting my door and then my diff broke on 95
Update:Friday i will be getting a torsen diff, and hopefully should have it put in the same night, more pics for you guys this weekend!

Tell me about it, i was so scared i thought the transmission was done :/, we got it on the lift and confirmed my diff died, im getting a stock diff again just to save me money for my body work. im getting all my fluids done when its on the lift again so it should be bullet proof until i get my starter & power steering fixed up.

I was driving and just heard a loud pop, and then the car stopped moving, once we got the the shop got on the lift and tried changing gears, the drive shaft spins but it doesn't move the wheels,hence diff blown. He said it might of been dry, but we didn't open it, but once i go in today, i'll see for sure.

Updates for you guys! I went and got the diff finally installed last night and it was quite a battle, yet it was fun. The mechanic lets us help him work on our cars so we get some experience! without further ado, heres the pics. Finally, headed to the body shop on wednesday, ill let you know how the build progresses.
