I have stock tt front rotors if you want them, give me an offer and I'll ship them over, they were just machined and are sitting in my garage.
This looks like it will be a very nice simple (enough) thread and some good info coming for the sc400, it's really a great car and you'll love it. it doesn't feel that heavy with some bushings and coilovers by the way. Looking forward to seeing how you'll reduce weight without gutting the interior. One tip is the abs/trac thing, that's about 40lbs, I'll send you the link once i get home. I'll be doing that soon to mine.
I vote on the gunmetal wheels. It would make the black car come out looking clean, fresh set up. And those seats are in good condition. Its hard to get good looking seats especially from a supra. Good Find.!

I just got my hands on some tan leather Supra seats. Im thinking they should drop about 40lb.
Some minor updates. Today I disconnected the PPS ecu (progressive power steering). I cant say it made a world of difference, but the car feels more stable and somewhat more "feel" with the road. Its still more than light enough for parking lots etc, so this mod is recommended.
I also (tried) to replace my steering rack bushings. However I found no good way to replace the small one without disassembling the shaft from the steering wheel, so I only replaced the big one. No real difference.

These are some pretty good coilovers that I recently got. When you set them stiff, you can turn on a dime, and when you set them soft, its just like the luxury suspension from the factory. Theyre also the cheapest in their category, and they have a wide range of adaptability for the price.
