My first sc400 build
Well I'm new to the forum and wanted some advice on mods for my sc400. The mods I have now are just a cone air filter, fully custom 3in exhaust (no mufflers) and comp cam (mild cam tho). I would like some good input on some more performance mods, some suspension setups, and some good exterior mods as well. Thanks in advance for the help and here are some pics of my SC

Welcome, you're off to a great start! For performance, try looking into some PPE headers, really expensive, but nice. It will be my next mod for my 400.
For suspension, most do coil overs, there's a lot of options, both cheap and expensive. You could also do springs and shocks, which is what I did. I have discontinued espelir springs and love them. And keep in mind you can use supra parts as well.
For exterior, 97+ kit is my recommendation since it's all oem fit and polyurethane. Hope that helped and have fun with your build!

Hey bro, as others have stated...you're off to a good start! I know when we last talked you mentioned the manual swap? Is this still in the plans? I won't spoil the surprise for the other CL members, but I can't wait to see the "other" wheels when you swap them over? lol...and welcome to the club-

Hey guys, well I finally decide on what route I'm going to take with my sc400. I'm going to procharge it. I've done a lot of research and for what I want and the money I want to spend this is my best option. So here is what I'm getting so far LS400 BBK, coilovers (don't know what brand yet), full procharge kit (with all supporting parts), Bride racing seats with harness, since I'm keep it auto going to be getting a shift kit (don't know what brand yet), PPE headers, well that's what I have for now. So this is what I have done to the motor now, Motor rebuilt with arp head studs, a mild cam (didn't do the cam but was told its cammed when took it to the dealer), full 3in exhaust and rebuilt trans. Its going to be a timely build but I'll keep you guys updated.
