Another build thread to the long list
soo i guess its time for me to start one of these, actually i was bored lol.
to start off i have a 1993 sc400. i got the car completely stock from my dad about a year ago.
So far I've done:
-cornering light mod
-replaced corner light and the running lights in the head lights with amber bulbs
-6000k HID
-alpine single din (no metra kit yet)
-two 12' kicker CVR's/MTX amp
what i have planned:
-HKS universal (catback) with 2.75-3" piping
-tokico struts/eibach lowring spring combo
-97+ sides and rear bumper
-95-96 modded clears tails
-an N/A setup thats going to give me at leat 350+ hp (still researching parts)
-and hopefully this weekend im hoping to pick up enkei PF01 replicas from my uncle, if anyone has pics with these rims on their sc post'em up.
thanks.
when i first got the car afyer a good cleaning
my new-ish single din w/o metra kit
basically what the car looks like now minus the blue fog lights in the middle
new rims

you're not going to get 350hp very easily if at all on an n/a 1uz.
If you really want to hit that number then reconsider a swap or turbo options.
A 1uz with intake exhaust and some add ons makes for a really fun car but it will probably be under the 300 mark realistically, only you can decide if you need to hit that number or not.

In the end, possibly, but more successful. Although with a built n/a, you would have some serious throttle response, the cost of building an n/a engine isnt worth it when for the same cost you can simply go na-t and make more hp.
**EDIT** OP has a 400, and I was thinking 300..still, na-t.
