Talking My first sc! *pix*

Hey everyone, yesterday I purchased my first sc300! I'm pretty excited as I have been a long time fan of these cars.

Shes a manual 93 sc300, with ~163k. The paint is in excellent condition, especially for a 93! Maintenance on it was meticious, and he had the AC bascially rebuilt the day before I purchased it. The interior is extremely clean, with exceptions to leather wear and tear.

The car really needs tires, so I'm just going to get wheels now instead of later. Coilovers will come soon after, because I probably won't be able to stomach the stock ride height.
Don't really wanna do too much to her, I have another project that is sucking my wallet dry. As well as my time. I'm just excited to have a reliable, conservative (for now) daily.







What is this?

Worst of the wear
Annoying cracks that need to be filled in... with something



Anyways, I'm just cleaning her up right now. Just looking for DIY's and stuff like that. Just little cosmetic things for now! Fun stuff later.

Track car, evo 5 inspired I guess. I'm taking a Mitsu mirage (same chassis as a evo 5) and making it RWD with a rb20 to play with at the track. Its gonna be a drift setup, but I'd like to run in HPD and weekend racer classes. Just have some fun.

Best of luck, princess. I suggest selling the other projects and dump all your money into the SC!! ;D
What wheel type and sizes are you planning on?

people always buy sc's to use as their daily's. Then they go ***** to the walls on the SC haha. Being a part of clublexus also isn't going to help your wallet at all either haha.

Nice find and enjoy it
