Lesson learned: don't ignore oil leaking from the vvt-i gear and let the grime build up on your engine.
It looks like the hot engine oil cooked the timing belt cover.

1. Lowered the front by an inch which was too much of a drop my 18x10.5 was inside and I was rubbing the top of the fender so I decided to raise it by half an inch.
2. Installed a used oem sc400 lip on it.
3. Tomorrow will be alignment and hks exhaust.

I picked up a TT Auto Torsen diff today. Should be installed in my SC300 in the next couple weeks. Hope the car will be more fun now.
