Recent updates I completed the louvers with powdercoat and installed them. Also decided to remove the high beams to allow better airflow into radiator. I was cruising around by and thought it was a nice spot to let the car cool down and snap some pics. OEM SC400 lip is on its last leg and looking to replace it soon with a wise poly one that will hold up a little bit better.

Picked up this set of Toyo R888R for the front wheels....in 255/35/18. Got a killer deal on these locally, brand new with bands and stickers still on them. Looking to pair the front with a set of 295/30/18 in the rear. See if I can get enough pull to make them fit or may have to do some more work to get them to fit.
This is a 245/35/18 and 255/35/18.....the Toyo's are alot wider than I thought. Not concerned about the front as I already have a 10mm spacer installed that can be removed if needed to fit the wider tires in front.

Update: Have been driving car alot and have recently upgraded to Toyo R888R all around on my car. Alot of work has been going on to get it ready for road racing. i.e adding louvers, directing airflow coming into front bumper, etc.
Car has been taken for race setup alignment but unfortunately all the camber bolts have seized up and and cannot be adjusted. I have all new bolts and nuts, everything to replace all suspension related parts with new hardware but havent yet got the time to work on it. Wise Replica Poly Lip is also just sitting in my garage waiting to be installed.
Dont frequent the forums as much as I used to.

Ryan, it was great meeting you guys! Definitely a true hardcore SC guy. Nice to see the community have members like this that do "outside the box" builds and not just the same thing that's been done over and over again.
A true pioneer and a great guy!

You know your level of creativity ceases to amaze me. For the last month I've been contemplating on the Tremec as an option. Watching you and Greg (along with my own research) I have made my decision. I can't beat what all I get for my money with this.

I rarely frequent the ClubLexus forums that much anymore. But here are some updates from the past few months.
Big changes for the SC. FIGS, Avery Vinyl, KBD Aero Pieces, New steering rack, tie rod ends, sway bar end links, etc.
97 Style door moldings will be here on the weekend. I wasn't a fan of the big gap the 92 style moldings leave
