Thanks for the kind words guys!!!!! sorry its taken so long to reply but ive been out of town, ill try to get answer your questions, first of all the dude in the front seat is a guy that works for the dealer i bought it from, i will post some pics of the interior and under the hood this week sometime.
yes it has taken me over 4 years to get one, i used to own a 91 Supra turbo but sold it (still kicking myself) because it wasnt practical at the time(have a 4yo), since then ive gone through several cars and ive been waiting untill i could find a deal on the SC that i wanted (most around here are sold before i can even look at them)
I still have a 93 GS300 which i had planned to mod. however after thinking about it i decided that i needed something that wasnt my daily driver(GS300+GTE swap+SAFC+gauges+less reliable+my girlfriend driving it=BAD IDEA!!!)
So now i have my SC for a weekend car/playtoy, i think short term mods are gonna be just change the radio, some tint, clean headlight and fogs up and maybe some HID'S, then id like to get some chrome TT rims and lower it untill i can afford some VOLK's , and later on down the road im planning to do a 1JZ swap
I originally wanted a 5-speed but i finally decided i dont care either way since the W58 doesnt hold up to much power anyway and an auto. 1JZ swap is MUCH easier and cheaper to find than a complete R154 swap. Besides that i drive a 10 speed all day at work, its kinda nice to not have to shift at home.
Does anyone know where i can find a color chart or what the color is called?? i had second thoughts about it being red at first but then after i thought about it i realized that there isnt many (if any) red ones around here.
