Default Bye bye sc

Ok guys well I will miss this sc but I am done with it. Shell is sold. I am keeping the engine setup and all performance parts and I will keep my wheels to trade for some ccw classics but I am selling the bare shell with bbk and tt wheels. I will be purchasing another supra mkiv and putting all my parts in it and a set of ccw's and calling it a day. But I might get a 97+ for a daily or something.

Man, that was fast LOL. I would have loved to see you finish this one, but can't blame your for going to a MKIV.

Nope didn't finish. I was in the middle of the build. It needed another 12-15k in parts to finish so I say F THAT! I am going to get a na or a tt shell targa and just drop it all in there get some coilovers and ccw's and go. I can make 700 on this setup so will make for a nice supra. I am going to put a fs add up in the am for all the sc specific parts on my car. So anyone looking at my pics just shoot me a pm if you see something you like.

So you aren't going to spend the 12k-15k to make this car the way you want. Instead it's going to go into a Supra. Don't understand the reason but it's a good investment.
