Previous owner kept the car tidy under the bonnet.

Anyone else got some nice engine bay pics to share?

do you feel any difference with that strut bar?:thumbup::thumbdn:

Nice engine bay kyoso23. Is it just the pics or does the SC400 not have the low coolant sensor on the coolant tank?

I doubt that it was just a detail before being sold, if the components aren't kept clean over time the level of grime that builds up especially on the alloy parts is nearly impossible to return to good condition.

re: coilovers, yeah I wish they were on the car when I got them but unfortunately I had to pay for them :-)

Matt.

It's hard to say. It was installed at the same time as the rest of the suspension. I've got to think it doesn't do a whole lot since the car is somewhat overbuilt as it is, but every little bit helps.

Matt.

Thanks, it gets wiped down once a week or so. And you're right, my 400 doesn't have a sensor on the overflow tank. :uh:
