Default Gspec's SC300 progression/dump thread.
Defiantly nothing baller going on yet, but I'm making a thread for my car on a couple forums to help keep me motivated...

Here's a rapid fire time-line from when I bought it until now:

Organized my Photobucket and F#%&ed up all my pic links....look on page 3 for reposted pics and updates.

While she was down for the motor swap, I did the LS400 brake swap:



Got her up and running again with the "new" motor, then I bite the bullet on the 5-speed swap. Here's some pics from that process:

Liking the MB's where did you get them? Having a hard time finding the 18x9.5 +low offset... Would look good on my supra.

I ordered them from Discount Tires website awhile back...I've heard the the +15's in 18" are out of stock now though.

And thanks for all the comments guys.....Kinda sucks being the only SC guy in town, so 100% of my motivation comes from seeing other build threads online.
