Default My 1992 Lexus SC400 build.

My name is Minh and I bought a 1992 Lexus SC400 a year ago and it's been sitting in my drive way for quite some time now. I finally started to buy parts for it and it's giving me great satisfaction how this car looks with just a few modifications to it. First thing I bought were Powered by Max coilovers..

Pre dropped.

After dropped.


I have a few more things in line. I pieced together a manual conversion for the SC400, bought a vis body kit, I have wheels on the way and I got a 5zigen fireball exhaust.. just waiting for money and time to get it installed.


more here..

Man, what a difference the coilovers can make. I am more of slight drop, not slammed. I like it, but not for me and the everyday driver.. In for the results of the finishing touches.

UPDATE
Got my 5ziegen exhaust installed, found out my cats were toasted so we had to drill them out now I'm running no cats.

Installledd.. I need a rear lip..

How the car looked with the work equips.

Threw the scaras on from my IS250 on for fun doesn't look that bad...
