I'm located in Knoxville, TN and I'm 22 years of age.
The SC was completely stock when I picked it up at 100xxx miles.
Since then It's been lowered on Megan easy street coilovers. It's sitting on LFA replica 18 X 8.5 wheels. Bolt on Wheel spacers will come soon.
Windows have been tinted since these pics were taken. 15 all around and 35 on the whole windshield.
Grip Royal wood grain steering wheel and NRG hub are the only interior mods so far but more to come.
More mods coming soon!
Beautiful early SC.

What's up people. Lets just get straight to it. I traded my 1994 Intega sedan for a Lexus SC400 just the other day. The guy who I traded was in need of a sedan for his family... I feel like it was a great trade for me. My next step is putting my sound system in my Lexus.. I already have all the gear, I'm just waiting on my wire harness and indash stereo kit/mount. I am not familiar with Lexus's and installing a complete sound system.. I installed my whole sound system in my Integra... So if anyone can give me pointers on installing some sounds id really appreciate it. Here is a pic of her.

Hello from the UK. I have two JDM Soarers, a 93 JZZ30 twin turbo and I have just bought a 95 JZZ31, what you would call a SC300. Been on Soarerworld / TIF for a pretty long time so have seen lots of references to Club Lexus, thought it was time to come and have a look especially as the 31 is going to be a project car with the intent to go NA-T.

here are some pictures of the cars which for now are both pretty standard (the 31 is BoB).

Premium gas (98 RON) is around £1.50 / Litre which would be about $9.16 / US Gallon. Expensive (mainly through tax) but a fact of life.

I used to live in Ireland, I can relate.

There is a special place in hell where all the politicians who voted to increase petrol taxes ride around on scooters 24/7............... lol

Default new guy with 2003 GS430

glad to be here have a GS430 ml edition and want to see what cool things I can add to make it look even smoother. I have a couple of subs I want to put in but don't want to mess with the stock navi/stereo. will the stock stereo be able to handle 2 12' subs and new amp?

Hello people My Name is Andy, and I recently was involved in an accedent that totaled my other car. I ended up buying my parents neighbors '92 SC300 and instantly fell in love with the car. I had no idea what I had gotten at first, but I did some research and found out that I had made an amazing find/purches. I have owned the car for about 4 or 5 months.

I have a question though, I dont like the way the wheels aren't flush with the body of the car. So I want to know if there is anything I can do to make the wheels flush. I have looked into putting spacers on it, but I herd that I would be spending a lot of money on berrings quite a bit...Which wasn't what I wanted to hear. Is there anything else I can do besides that, or is that about the only thing I can do??
Thank You
-Andy
