Default New SC owner
Hello i just got a 1992 sc with 87xxx miles. Great condition. So far I have replaced the water pump, timing belt, serpentine belt, to be safe. I also got 19 rims, kuhmo tires, and kyb shocks on stock springs.




After playing with photoshop this is how i want the car to look like. notice the drop



I have been wanting to drop the SC but dont know what springs to go with that will drop the car as shown in the second picture. So far im leaning toward tanabe springs.
