Default RSP SC300's Represent!!!!

Okay here are pics of my RSP 300. I just got the brakes and wheels on last week. For those of you about to ask, 255/35/19 up front and 285/35/19(bit too tall) in the back. Thanks to Vincent at Iforged for the hook up and also thank you to Roland @ H&R Springs for the hookup on the coilovers.

I'll be able to lower the back more once Michelin gets the 285/30/19's out of backorder.

Car rides awesome and handles like a dream.

If I repaint my car, it will be in that color.

Sorry man, you're not gonna get any love on this thread. Way too rare of a color. I would say that RSP is my favorite color, but my blackness does not permit me from making that statement

I think it looks great. Just puy some tire dressing on the tires, look a little gray. I also have a fat tire set up. Makes for a smoother ride and looks good on a coupe...best of both worlds. Good handling and smooth ride. May I ask how much was the paint job?

Ok here's a dumb question what is RSP?

Love that color, does it change in sunlight vs dusk evening? I think those tires look awesome, yeah they just need some Stoners tire spray.

It looks like you have a 97,98,99 or2000, I didn't know they offered a factory color like that. Nice.

Royal Sapphire Pearl, a rare factory color that's shared with the Supra.

Wow. Got any high-res pics of your car? I needs me a new wallpaper. And if that thing is a 5-speed, it would be perfect in every way

Well, I'm glad to make you happy. It is a 5 speed for the next three weeks. After that she gets her 2jz-gte with Arias Pistons, Crower Rods, Virtual Works Intake and turbo manifold, PTE74S Turbo and HKS 272 cams. Then comes the 6 speed so This weekends project is to get the supra rear brakes on. Once thats done I'll send you off some highres pics.

Thanks for all the love

Mike
