You're welcome, guys!

And CM Racing also built a turbo SC400 a few years ago. I saw it back at World of Wheels here in Chicago back in 2013

That's Paul's TT GS400. I remember that car from around the year 2000 when my dad's shop worked on that car. It used to be a bright red before they painted it green.

Sick vehicle. Any time he shows up to any local meet, you better damn guarantee that car is winning the 1st place "Best Lexus Award". It's no contest, I don't think it gets driven so it stays looking perfect!

Thanks for sharing. Definitely some quality builds at this years show. I've seen the black SC with green wheels on Fb or somewhere.

Thank you! It was actually the first time I took any of my cars to a show, and it was a great experience. The show was awesome.

Oh damn, so he's had it for a while. The car is most definitely sick. It did win the best Lexus award, and it deserved it. Its a shame it never gets driven though. Defeats the purpose for me.

Yes, it was incredible. I walked around that car a bunch of times. Its a work of art. I'd love to turbo my SC400 one day.

Yup, I've seen that car around here a bunch of times. The owner is on the forums here too. Its modded with some rare and quality parts, and its really quick for an NA.

I was going to ask if you knew what it had under the hood. I've always wanted to see more pictures of that car since its the only SC I know of with te37sl.

Thanks.

His name is Brian. He's on this forum under the 1997Soarer name. He doesnt post too many things about his car though.
