Default My 93 Sc400 build

Bought my 93 sc400 3 months ago with 155k miles. Have done some changes to it since I purchased. Planning to swap a 1j in the near future with better suspension, wheels, some interior work and possibly new paint job as well

Just a little update. Bought dual blitz nurspec exhaust from my friend, did a resonator delete and bought a new trunk as mine was faded. Guess I'll be going wingless for now lol

Simple and clean. Love the look, and the color matching lip/soarer aero. What comes next for the car?

Thanks! I just ordered 97 tailights and they should be coming in Tuesday then a 97 rear bumper will be purchased soon. After that, maybe just save for better coilovers. I don't like these ksports haha

Very nice. What spring rates are you running, and don't you like about the K-Sports just curious?

Im not sure. They came with the car lol but i never liked ksports to begin with. They always seem to blowout fast. So I'll be buying BCs in the near future

Tested fitted my work vsxx just to see how much we needed to pull fenders. Was not diggin the 215/35 and 225/35 tires on car. Was too much stretch for a 10.5. So bought new tires for them



Pressure washed all my wheels to get all the nasty gunk that was on it
Took all the wheels apart and polished them using blue magic metal polish


Bought new hardware from wheel flip. Mounted all the wheels and sealed them and off to tire shop to get them mounted
Testing fitting with new Nankang 265/35/18 tire

Rolling rears out more

Adjusted the height to my liking



AND HERE SHE IS









Front fenders need to be pulled a little more but I'm loving it already
