Hi Gang

If there is only 1 upgrade you can do for your SC, do the06 Tail lights upgrade !!

Your links do not work. You may have to use like a photobucket to be able to post with links.

No offense to the OP, but I gotta say that the tail lights are not the best upgrade for the SC. They do improve the look of the car but calling it the "best" upgrade doesn't hold weight. I'm sure we're all entitled to an opinion, but for the money the Transmission Pressure Mod is the best upgrade for the SC, again in my opinion. For the price, it's more worthwhile than stop lights. The Trans Pressure Mod really opens up the throttle and responsiveness on the car, and really makes driving the SC430 a different experience. Just my two cents.

To each his own, completely. But I wouldn't really call it a "racing modification." It just really removes that "lag" or "lurch" that car has on acceleration. If you ever plan to get your transmission fluid changed, think about asking the shop to change the pressure to FIRM from the stock SOFT. You will truly feel the difference. Really makes driving the SC a lot more fun. There's plenty of info, if you search for "Trans Pressure Mod."

Yea, I know about the " firm "setting as I have owned 4 SC's (02,03,04 and 06)
In my days. I had an 06 in the past and quite honestly, I also didn't
see too big of a difference with the 02-05. But again, it could ne
because I never drive my cars too hard LOL
