Yes I understand polarity lol......I have tried them both ways and they dont light up....I put back in the old bulbs just to be sure....not sure why they dont work because they are pulling less watts than the old bulbs

What bulbs are you using for cornering lights.....I know they are 1156...Im wondering if it has to with them being spliced into side markers.....I have completely ditched sidemarkers and soldered the wires directly to cornering lights

Out of all the bulbs for the entire car they are the only ones that dont work with LED bulbs

Small update: I removed factory midpipe with cat and replaced with 3" SS MK4 Mid straight pipe, It bolted right up to factory catback..I noticed a little bit more power but I can still hear the exhaust being restrictive....just need 3" catback portion

Snapped a few pictures of the car after a good run..

Been looking at getting 19's over the winter....I have been looking at the linea corse dyna.....t1s reps....they are 19x8.5 +30 F and 19x10 +38 R.....

I also will be getting KW3's as well

I should be able to run 255/35/19 F and 285/35/19 rear....I choose these wheels as the offset is not aggressive and I want to be able to run the biggest tires possible..

I have all of my fenders rolled flat...My only concern is if they will clear the LS400 BBK..

Any input on other members that have similar offsets appreciated...

Only a few more months left to drive the SC....

I plan on pulling the trigger on them....I am tossing around about getting them powdercoated black..

Id like to see if I could get a 295/30/19 out back...

A side note I have scored a 3" SS catback for $75....its for a MK3....but I really only wanted it for the piping....going to cut it up and make it fit......Can you say 3" straight piped!!!!

Some pics of the exhaust...its a no name brand but for the piping and vbands I couldnt pass it up...imo i think its a steal for $75.....I will rock the big fart can on it temporarily...





Also started working on a paint scheme for the garage....l have my Lexus and Toyota flags that i need to put up once im finished with the paint



Was on my way back from picking up the exhaust and spotted this 97+ sc300 on the highway...it was really rough....but I always love seeing them..

that exhaust is gonna wail lol can't wait to hear it. most SCs i see are either driven by old men on their phones or are just complete garbage condition and driven by some wannabe hoodrat and the whole trunk is just warping from the 15" subs they got in the back.

Got it bolted up....it is a little bit off but that is expected....it hangs to low and is off around the rear subframe

I did get a video of it straight piped all the way to the back...the exhaust clamps are on it just to hold it up as I cut the hangers of the piping

Not sure what the deal is around my area but even to modify the piping to make it fit better everyone wants $400

oldManTan

lol at first it was like riice, riiiicce, and then BBWWWAAAA!!!!!!! lol awesome sound, just keep it in the high revs

RICE FTW!!!!......lol....jk....Its way to loud straight piped.....I had 3 cops behind me when I toke it out for a spin....soon as they turned off.....pedal went to the floor....I gotta admit it sounds super nasty though...but not for the streets

Im going to throw the muffler on tomorrow to see how much it tones it down and if it sounds like garbage....may pickup a blitz or hks muffler

oldManTan

lol sounds great, cant wait to hear it some more

My car has been at the shop the past few days getting the exhaust finished up....He wasnt able to get to it yesterday but I will be picking it up today...

Some new goodies just came in.....

I originally wanted to get KW v3.....but for a street car that I only drive during the summer months....I couldnt justify the price of them

These are the new Godspeed Mono-RS Coilovers....First initial thought about opening them up from the box as that these look like really expensive coilovers....the quality is top notch...

I called Godspeed directly and talked to them before purchasing and the new direction the company is going in...they are now focusing soley on suspension related parts only.

I havent seen anyone with these yet for the SC/Supra.....but they have gotten really good track reviews on other platforms.

I plan on writing a review of them once I get them installed and drive the car

On to pics..









Here are the specs:

- Spring Rates, 12kg Front/ 8kg Rear
- 32 Levels of Dampening
- Mono-Tube Shock Design
- Power Coated Damper Body
- Ride height and spring preload are completely separate (Ride height can be changed without touching spring preload)
- Pillow Ball Mount with a spherical bearing
- Koyo Japan 6204z bearing
- Poly Urethane bushings (When Applicable)
- 53mm Monotube Shock
- One Year Warranty from date of purchase
