Default 92 DWP 5 Speed Build Thread

Whats up cl. i picked up my Sc300 about 4 months ago. i had a 94 Ls400 with a lil work done to it but i always wanted a manual car. my sc had to be a white 5 speed and we all know how hard they are to come by. after months of searching i was about to go to cali to pick up a dwp 5 speed and ship it back to ny when this one popped up just two towns away from me.

the car was bone stock when i bought and this is what iv done so far:
-Megan coils
-19" rays g35 rims
-2Ls bkk up front (searching for supra tt rear)
-97+ front bumper
-Pioneer double din
-2 12" kicker L5s (going to upgrade to L7s soon)
-Pioneer 1200 watt amp

i have a set of clear lenses but havent put them on yet because im thinking i might as well do a projector upgrade while im at it. but i cant decide on what projectors to go with.

whats next for the car is:
-2j gte/r154 swap (already have a mk3 supra r154 in the garage for it.
-black int swap
-a full respray
-the lense/projector upgrade somewhere in between

and here r the pics, 1st pick was how my Ls looked

Nice start. I really want a set of those G35's for daily wheels.

Before the respray, try getting the remaining 97+ conversion parts.

The LS was pretty tight i like that body style but I think you ned to lower the back of the SC a bit. other than that it looks great

thanks, yea i definitely to need to lower the rear. currently fronts are 225/35 and rear is 245/40. the rims had tires when i bought them. front were shot and bought the 225/35s and rears have a decent amount of tread. so im gona ride them out for the rest of the season and buy some 245/35s for the rear next season
