Hi All,

I own an IS250 and Bought a 92 sc300 with 74K on the clock.
Clean chassis which was the most important thing as this was intended initially to be a fast street car and to compete with it in autox and amateur drift events.
Plans have changed though.
After 16yrs of managing in the IT industry I said I had enough and started a local shop named JY Racing ltd.
We have been able to secure dealerships from Cusco, Endless, Greddy, Ikeya Formula and many more.
With that me and partner decided the SC will be a dedicated drift and track car to compete here.
I have taken 2nd and 3rd places in overall standing in the past few year in autox and drift events with my Nissan s14 competing in open class so I know what i am doing .

With our sponsors we are building the SC with the following:

2JZ-GTE supra jdm engine. - Have it.
Cusco - Street Zero A (supra spec) coilovers. - Leaving JP in a week
Converting rear sub frame to supra one. - Leaving JP in a week
Alloy busshings wherever available.
Cusco Differential. - Leaving JP in a week
Cusco (supra) sway bars.
Cusco / Safety21 cage. - Leaving JP in a week
Greddy Turbo kit. - good for 700hp on pump 93. - Leaving JP in a week
Greddy intercooler and intake manifold. - Leaving JP in a week
Drop in 800cc sard injectors. - Leaving JP in a week
R154 transmission - 6 speed coming later. - Have it.
ORC triple plate clutch.- Have it.
Endless custom brake kit - coming soon, - In design stage and will be finalized when we give more input after initial shakedown.
Almost finished the ISF front and rear caliper adaptor plates to run ISF sized rotors - Just need to finalize rear bracket.
Endless MX72 pads and CCA pads. Leaving JP in a week
Plastic4performance side and rear Lexan replacement windows. - ordering in a week or so.
Origin Body Kit. - Leaving JP in a week
Wide body fr and rr
CF or FR hood , Doors and trunk - still undecided .
And much much more.
Attached initial concept sketch I made - dont be too harsh on me, I am no photoshop wiz :-)
I have attached picture of the base car - being washed after 2 years of sitting in a shed.
Also work in progress on ISF caliper and rotor fitment.

I will post progress info and pics. Its holiday season around here so real progress only at begining of next month.
