Love the suspension set up. Not so much the wheels, way too sporty + old design for me, that's more of a civic integra wheel (no offense, just my taste). I'd go with a simple 5 spoke like an MMR HR5 although the staggered set up definitely looks good.
The 02-05 tail lights need an upgrade. You'll also need wiring and only place u can get it for cheap is sewell. $20 per side for wiring only. I've sent u a PM with info on where u can get the tail lights for cheaper.
Your picture taking skills are pro dude sure does look like a high end DSLR camera. I want pix of my car like that too!
Whats up with the music man, makes u seem older than some of the SC owners here lol.
And the video was made with Windows Movie Maker :P

Alex...can you send me the tailight instructions....I bought the lights but need to know how to do the conversion. I did not buy the ECU so does your solution fix that?

We all have different taste's and opinions. Speaking for myself, I really like the set up, especially the deep lip on the wheels. Can you post more info on the suspension modification and info on the wheels/tire size? Great work on the video clip. Mike

Nice job man. I actually liked the juxtaposition of the old wheels melding into the new ones. Nice. Makes me want to start taking more pics of mine and put together a slideshow too!

You do not need the ECU computer. You do need wiring.
Step 1) Purchase wiring from here: http://lexus.sewellparts.com/oem-cat...C430-2006.html. Part #81555. You will need 2 of those.
Step 2) Follow these instructions here to do the conversion: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...cs-inside.html
Step 3) To disable the dash warning light: You need to put a black tape over the warning light bulb. Sit in your car, put the steering wheel all the way down. Grab the thing and pull it towards you, its a plastic cover it'll come off. Then youll see 4 screws. After u remove those the entire thing will come off. After u did that youll take out a few more screws and u have access to the bulb. Put 2 layers of black tape. If you must have pictures to do this there's a thread here somewhere that shows step by step instructions by a member who did it. I don't have the link but i'm sure someone here is kind enough.
