Default picked up an sc400...

So a few months back i picked up Quick VR-4's SC400....just got a custom fabbed intake and exhaust done to it...picage..







(sry about the pollen hah)

header-back straight pipe to 2 straight flow magnaflow muff/magnaflow 3.5"tip. X-pipe/TRUE dual exhaust

vid of the sound - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4zh2z4Kp-E




custom 3" intake done by mpfab.com

Car is quite fun to drive, sux it isn't manual, but it is my business car so it's all good!

I came from driving a 2jz swapped s2000, that was definately fun, but I got married and the car was just a headache half the time.

vid of that one if ya wanna see it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKe1KvWWxUM

Looking forward to doing some more stuff to the car when I get some spare cash. God bless! James

Nice black SC with the IS wheels. I enjoyed both of your videos. Your current 1UZ sounds great. Your 2JZ S2000 looked so fast.

yeah, I am back and forth on the taillights as well haha...custom header will be done in the future most likely, (hopefully when I do a turbo....maybe...
)as they are EXPENSIVE...payed around 310 for the intake after parts and install etc. and no I haven't really thought of taking the engine cover off...think it would look better? Yes, they're IS300 rims, and supra TT brakes/suspension if I didn't say that earlier. Thanks for the compliments! :-)

Nice car, great looking exhaust set up. I took my cover off, there is a nice looking engine underneath...
