I found a 1997 1uz for $300 with transmission... Seems like the right way to go. Just no where to store it.. The guy said he will hold it for me, not sure if that will happen!
I just finished designing the custom Delrin bushings for the SC/MK4 arm/spindle swap in ACAD, just need to get them cut.
I am restoring my interior back to how it was stock. A guy local has some door panels for dirt cheap, I wanted to pick them up and dye them blue again to match my interior.
Which color of blue does SEM make that matches the stock blue interior?

I will be posting a little more info about the spindle swap when I have some time. Today I pulled off all the arms/spindles and the car is sitting on one of those awesome steelies I had (on the frame)...
I am going to sand blast and paint the SC400 arms soon. I will getting my buddy to make...
I got a center console trim piece, the center console box part, with the armrest, and both rear panels above the seats I am missing. Also reserved a 1997 1uzfe. Gotta pick it up in 2 weeks.

What is nice about this vs the MK3 stock stuff is that you have the chance to get more angle because there is less...
Mocked up my extra SC400 LCAs, Hubs/Spindle, and 2 piston brakes...
Not only will I have 2 piston brakes, I will have a little better steering angle!
Bad pics but it isnt final yet either. Nothing is tightened down as you can see... Plus I still need to make some little modifications to it...
Are you sure? The MK3 single piston brakes look smaller compared to the stock SC 2 piston calipers... Rotors look about the same size. The early SC300 has 15" wheels fitting over those brakes. Just an observation.
A little picture action for you guys and gals.
I got some 225/50/16 tires mounted on 2 of the wheels to see how it looks. I like it, a little boxy, but it works. Obviously since the front is jacked up sky high, the wheel will sit outside with its low offset. If its anything like my SC400, it...
Are those sizes going to be a little large on the tire size?
btw, I did a bad photoshop job with different colors on my car.

Check out my website for the SC. www.mysoarer.com as well as the blog I posted in the first post for my updates on it.
It has the 89+ moldings? did not know that.
I did some very bad photo shopping with the wheels on the car... Stock silver finish, gunmetal, gold, bronze and purple for...
