What's up guys/gals? Name's Eric- new to CL but certainly not new to forums or Lexus. I picked up my 93 SC400 about a month ago and have spent alot of time on here already just trying to get back in the "Lexus" mindset after 3 years in a 92 Supra turbo followed by 4 in an E36 BMW.
Anyway-about the car. Bought it locally from the first owner, who claimed it to be a "special edition" because of the gold trim and the OZ racing wheels, but I knew better. Still- a solid "survivor" w/ only 108k on the clock. Has the typical SC issues (burnt needles, bleeding CC, in need of suspension bushings, crappy CD player, etc. etc.) but overall in what I'd call excellent condition.
So..without further adue, pics! (Well...one pic anyway)
BTW...if these wheels catch your eye, drop me a PM. I'll be looking for a set of stockers before too long...

Im 22 yrs old im looking into buying an sc first gen. i have my eye on this fixer upper, its a 94 sc300 auto trans, the interior is damaged, paint faded and motor has a bad knock but i believe its a good start with a first project like this, if i do get this vehicle looking into swapping it into a manual trans and maybe seeing what engine to drop in it if not the same 2jzge (mind you, not loaded with cash lol)
Im from Phoenix AZ where i have seen a couple of sc's around town but most ive seen have been auto trans, at this point i drive a green 98 accord (BOOO i know =) ) but ready to make a move onto the sc world, if you guys have any advice for me im all ears.

finally joined
Been reading and researching for awhile and now joined. Im from the south suburbs of chicago. I have a 92 sc400 r154 swapped and a 98 sc400 vvti black on tan with the 5 speed auto. The reason I joined is a couple weeks ago a valet crashed my car and am now trying to put it back together again. Wondering if anyone has oem parts or legit aftermarket bumper, headlight, fender, hood. I'll post elsewhere for the real inquiry on the parts just figured id introduce myself and explain why i joined. Hello, and Thanks

Whats up guys my name is Adrain but everybody calls me A. I joined the site a couple of months ago just to see other members SC's because I was thinking about getting one. After doing all my research( still so much to learn) I had a couple of coins to spend on one. I finally found it.

I've been lurking in the background for years
Hello All,
Like the title says, I've used this site as my bible for years!
First with my 95 ES300 and now with my 93 SC400.
Finally figured I would say hello. I've ran into some serious issues with my SC4 and will need the help/opinion from users on this site and thought it was the least I could do to introduce myself first.
I don't have to many pictures but this is Jade (yes I named her)
She has just over 117,000 miles on it.
Other than replacing the headlights, High beams, and taillights she's as factory as can be.
Well like I said. Hello Everyone!
