And that my friends is the most prime example of the pursuit of perfection! Simply amazing! Job well done to you and everyone involved in this outstanding build. Enjoy that beautiful SC of yours for many many years please. IMO you have the best of the best of what Toyota has developed in terms of chassis and drivetrain. Job well done again....I can't say it enough.....haha.

thank you all for the great comments!!! Drove the car for the first time yesterday and all i can say is that it is like a totally different car now. the shifting is so short and precise and the feel of the clutch is amaxzing. the clutch is a little noisy but that is normal of the twin disk clutches which i dont even mind.
