prolly just worn out lens on the cd changer, i wish SC's came with the cd player in the headunit, but its still a timeless car, welcome to CL,
i have the pro kit on my car and it runs good, it is a pretty conservative drop ( 1") if you dont want to get a camber kit, but it settles more on the drivers side, it should've came with this height from the factory imo,
i want to go with a Eibach pro kit what do u guys think? btw im runin 245/40zr18 all tha way around

the 1JZ-GTE, 2.5 liter twin turbo motor, came from the j-spec version of our car, the soarer. The cars are identical except its RHD and our US version, the SC300, is LHD. It can be installed stock in less then 2 days not knowing what your doing. Everything bolts up fine just the engine harness has to be extended almost 2.5ft to reach the LHD compartment. Even the stock downpipe fits our exhaust. No one knows the real limits of a 1jzgte power wise, no one reached em yet.
oh, and i doubt it will pass any cali emissions test, my bad oops

Tnx again to all
On the Eibach issue I just want my SC to look good on the rims the front looks very high I think an inch should be good and still drivable with out too much scraping.
And the 1JZ-GTE sounds good so no messing with the harness all u have to do is make it longer and every thing plugs up and works fine? All I want is a decent 300-400hp and im fine nothing crazy just enough to kill the occasionally unsuspecting stang or camaro ;-)

Im not a fan of your rims too flashy, doesnt fit the classiness of the car, but thats my opinion.. heres intrax supra springs in lexus struts

and yes you pretty much described the installation and power of a 1JZGTE. Do some reading around the site, its a great motor and cheap (right now at least), u can find em in the 1000-2000 range compared to a 2JZGTE with the same power output thats like 3-4k

they ride like crap, lol... the travel on the lexus struts isnt long enough. But i bought the springs for $25 bux used, cant go wrong. Ill get better struts in the future. Supra springs do not fit lexus rear struts, u need supra struts also. Dont feel too bad about the rims, i have to ride around my daily driver SC300 with stock rims, god its horrible i feeel so dull
