Soooooooo, since i'm back again I will just keep my original thread going with the new car and the new build up. If some of you dont already know the new car is a 99' SC3 black on black with a boat load of miles and in need of some TLC. Got a good deal on it so it dont matter.






Just spent 500 buck today at the Lexus dealer today getting some much needed maint. parts gezzzz.

Plans are and not in any specific order:

-New coil overs (looking for something not stiff not bumpy any suggestions?)
-Bigger wheels 19"
-Full TT brake conversion F & R
-LED lights the whole interior
-Smoked tails
-Blitz Nur Spec Exhaust
-Audio upgrade (pioneer head unit with JL subs and amps)
-SC4300 front seats with new leather all around
-Front Lip
-Boooooooosssssttttttttt
-Repaint

Glad to have you back Kevin. I have never seen SC430 seats inside the 1st gens. I imagine it will look quite good. Any modification needed for the seat rails? I assume the heated seats will work just fine with a little wiring.

I have no idea, I was always caught up trying to get all the 97+ plarts for my old SC that I never got around to picking up the seats for a test fit. But this time its all different so hopefully within the next month I can got to a junker a buy one seat to start the conversion. Maybe i get the saddle leather set and do the saddel interior


Wiring deff will not be a prob

LoL thanks man appreciate it. If I do get to do the saddle interior I hope I can get it done before someone else does lol ..............





Fellas I got a question, The tilt on the steering colum is super slow and doesnt fully move up n down. It goes back n forth but the up n down is super slow and stops dosent move much. Is there a diy on how to fix it or do I have to replace ?
