Pirate400 is correct..They are basically the same except for a few minor changes..During 92-94, the SC400 had a black front lip and the SC300 did not...Other than that when both front ends were revised from 95-96 and then finally at 97-00, SC300 and the SC400 front ends are indifferentiable..

yeah, but it's on the same frame. it has a different "rad" because it has a different motor.

as for body everything is the same.

the radiator support probably isn't the same because the radiators are different sizes. maybe someone could chime in on this.
