Default SC love from Australia

Hey guys, owned my JDM Spec Soarer for 2.5 years, got all features including air suspension and an EMV screen, It has a catback mandrel bent system, sounds really nice.

I have also got a height controller to dump it when I get in and out :P and 17" speedy 5 spokes.
A lot has been replaced as I am trying to get it as original and clean as possible.

Here some pics, please comment and tell me what you think.

Cheers guys, Christian.

Am currently upgrading brakes with TT Soarer ones and then getting extractors made and ceramic coated.

Also looking for a set of 18" IS350 wheels!

Yeah good chnk, I drive with it on soft, but the sports mode makes it alot stiffer and handles nicer, with the height controller it is awesome.

Yeah, no going back, the 1UZ's are amazing engines.
Nothing like the sound of a V8
