Default New lexus owner

Hey everyone I go by SloWalker. I just brought my first lexus sc300 and first lexus period earlier today. I love the car been wanting one for awhile. Because of money limitations i went with the sc300 over the sc400. But anywhoo it's a great running car at 170k on odometer. Some chipping in the paint but i covered the spots with some touch up paint. I have many ideas about what i want to do with the car but, my main focus is getting the interior back in excellent condition. I'll be creating a build thread soon after i get some more pics. Glad to be aparr of the community.

1994 Lexus SC300



Day 1.. October 1st 2014





Day 1 engine

Hey my name is Jeff. I just got my sc400 about a month ago with 132k on it. It has a couple of issues that need fixing some more serious than others but it drives really good. the paint isn't my favorite color I REALLY!! want to change it but can't atm. But I do have a good few ideas on what I want to do on this car. It's going to be an interesting project.(Rims on the car isnt mine. It has stock factory rims on them)

Had to ask..... Majority of the cool SCs seem to be in SoCal or Florida these days... There are some award winning NorCal SCs for sure but are more rare up here where ISs abound...

Hello. my name is Alex. I am located in Lakeland, FL. I have owned my SC4 for about 7 months now. The car was previously owned by a friend of mine/ forum member BartleDoo. It has the exhaust off of RedPhoenix's old SC4 (Blitz Nur). It is w58 swapped. Currently running on a Megasquirt 3. All in all it's a fun car!

Default 97 sc 3

I have a 1997 SC300 that is bone stock and all original. I was rear ended a few years ago and want to fix the exhaust, so I am looking for a stock exhaust that someone would sell me since the guy who repaired it couldn't get it perfect. I am also looking to swap out full suspension but also want to keep it stock. Anyone have any of this stuff lying around?

Thanks
Matt

Welcome to Club Lexus! In regards to the parts you're looking for, you should place a WTB ad or scroll the listings in the SC300/SC400 section of the classifieds for best results.

GL!

After spending hours looking at build threads figured I better do the intro thing. Name is Vernon I've been a fan of Toyota and Lexus for a long time. I worked for a Lexus dealer for three years and a Toyota dealer for three years. I have a mk3 supra with some light mods and after some real crappie luck and dropping 1200 this year to keep her running. I've decided to save for my other dream car a 97 sc300. Hope to get her by spring figured no point in trying to get one so close to the holidays seeing I have three kids and a woman to spoil first. So I plan on being a lurker for a bit but I have some good knowledge on these cars. hope to contribute when I can.
well didnt get the 97 like i was hoping but a 95 came my way friday
