J:M's Black 1997 SC3
 
Haven't posted my pics up yet even though I've been trolling for a few years. I enjoy seeing the builds that other people have done. In no way does my stock SC compare, but hope you like the pics.

Notes:

1. I hate my fleabay lights, as soon as I can afford a new pair and HID retro-fit, I will.

2. The 1" drop is my preference, I understand everyone likes the SLaMMeD look, I don't.

3. The front left wheel rubs on right turns and freeway on-ramps :egads: (Will be shaving front fenders to accomodate)

4. Yes, it's not the typical VIP JDM look, going for more VIP USA look with a dash of bling. I wanted a more conservative look like an imagining of a 2009 SC300 model, but when I found the wheels, threw that idea out the window. :uh:

Stats on stance:
KYB GR2
Tanabe NF210
Foose Lusso 20x8.5 +40 on 245/35 all around (I'll probably go 235/35 in front and 245/35 in back next set of Pirellis, but I like the look of the 245)

I think my comp is dying. I can't see pics :(

OneJay May 4, 2009 03:12 PM

Looks pretty good. Post some more pics!!!

Edit: Just opened this in another browser, looks like some pics aren't working. I could only see the side view one before.

Ahh man i couldnt see the pics either!

TheKevin May 4, 2009 03:30 PM

not too bad but the wheels seem more on the DUBZ side than VIP.

Mr.NA_T May 4, 2009 05:13 PM

Nice, Not my style, but nice, and clean...

Nothing wrong with a little bling here and there.
