Poor mans SC400 project car
Thanks for the advice!
My customer cars are always bad ***, brand new cars with high quality parts. Me, I'm just happy if my car gets me around. Now that it doesn't look like complete *** I feel even better driving it! That's why I'm in this business, to make people feel good about what they drive 
Sure some Volk GTS wheels, a high quality WB kit, USDM 2JZ-GTE and 6 speed swap are all options, but that's not the point here. This car is a piece, and I could never justify spending good money on it. The plan was, pick up an SC to get to know the platform, dive in and rip everything out, and make the car a tad more appealing to the Craigslist crowd. I wanted an SC3, but this was a good way to feel out the platform, so I'm excited to sell this, pick up a nice clean SC3 with much less mileage and 100% stock. Then I can justify building on a solid foundation and save up for great parts. Till then I'm just pretending, lol.
lol account just seems to have bad days from time to time like we all do.
Agreed----im actually very impressed with your car ---for $2200.00 you are putting alot of people to shame.
I like it and although it is not the way I would mod my own car it looks very good nonetheless-----good job
thanks for sharing---you did a great job for the money u had to work with
I really plan to do big things with this platform and more than likely build an SC online store based on what I learn from it. I'll be picking up a ton of info while I'm doing the next few SC builds, so why not put that knowledge to good use
Granted it all starts with a budget build like this, I'm sure I'll get the itch to drive around SoCal with a street legal TT 6 Speed SC3 in the near future! Somethings got to pay for all that. I just know I need to sell this one before I start to get attached to it (I have a tendency to do that with project cars).
