Slammed my ride yesterday!!! WoooHooo!!!
UPDATE ON PAGE 3!!
Well, Yesterday a friend and I worked on the SC to install the Megan EZ's Coilovers and Rotors/Pads. I have been waiting a month to have the the time to do this install. Finally done and I love these coilovers... They are very smooth and ride well for the street. The stance you can get with coilovers on an SC is just sweet. Anyway, I have new SS brakelines, Rotors and pads. The braking is improved as well. So I am feeling good about the car. Oh one other thing is I traded my IS300 wheels for a set of L-Tune replica 18x8 Chrome wheels with new tires on them. I think it is a nice improvement also. Makes my calipers stand out.
Here is what it looked like previous to install:
Then we did the calipers:
Then we installed the coilovers:

I'm curious as to why you took the upper control arm out, and how hard it was to take out, because I am pretty sure this is not necessary to remove and install struts...
Looks damn good though!

Looks good. You may consider pulling out fender liners or trimming them, and relocating the wiring harness in the DS fender.
And before you run out and buy spacers remember you'll need to install longer wheel studs to match the increase in thickness of the spacers. And make sure they are hub centric.
