I bought a SC400
I've owned a MK4 Supra and a few MK3's and a MK2, but the SC is a different animal.
The car was well kept and it shows just by the way it looks inside and out and how it runs/drives. The previous owner decided to install some weird mufflers and some newer Lexus wheels which I don't mind much but thats not my priority as of yet.
The car is a 92 and I paid a bit too much for it and I could've bought ones newer than it for half the price, but I'll fork over the extra cash for something that I like.
I've already ordered the 5spd bezel for it.
By the way, just some recent work i've done to one of my rides.
5spd 1UZ out of a 97 LS400 OBDII into OBD1 X83 Cressida which all came with automatics in the states.
After I slap a W58 behind the 1UZ, I'll be doing a full stainless steel exhaust from the manifolds back. After that, I'll lower the car, probably get some nice wheels on it and leave it as a daily cruiser since its soo friggin clean.
Enjoy, thanks.

It is a clean lookin car, but...unless the previous owner put in a different dash, I don't believe the 92's came with a pass side airbag, I have a 92 and there is no pass side airbag...but again clean car

Very nice pickup. I also had a 1992 Cressida and a mkiii. I enjoyed both of those cars until i finally own a couple of sc's now. I wish i would have kept the Cressida it was a sweet car but I traded it in on a mr2 turbo. Now that was a nice car. White with black leather. Welcome to the club.
