    Yep, I'm keeping the SC. Between the BFI and exhaust, I should pick up a MPG or two. Hell, I think I might be doing quicktime performance electric cutouts. Pull up to a light silent, open the cutouts and people will go WTF for sure. Now I just need to know the deal from people that have them.

    With almost 200k on the clock, not very eager to spray the car, haha. A 35/50 shot would be quite fun though.

    I think I may just keep the SC, throw some mild exhaust on there and some wheels and I'd be happy. Do the BFI for a few extra Miles per gallon...

    Oh, haha. I was reffering to the gas mileage of a 1JZ. =]

    ^ I'm used to 16-17MPG. I'm sure it's gotta be a wee bit higher than that.

    ^ +1. But does anyone else know their gas mileage?

    Basically this guy has done a lot of swaps before, he's had a LS1 FD that he sold, a couple RB25 swapped 240's among other things. He's trying to start up a business and he's already got an STi. He said he's out of the phase of building cars and whatnot. He said he can throw a part of two on the...

    Damnit to hell. Well basically how about this. I got my SC400 for supercheap, and I know I could turn around and sell this car for more money than I got the SC for. If it turns into a money pit or something I don't want, I'd be still good off selling it, right?.. From the 1JZ people, what...

    And yeah, it could add up quick but ALL I need is the speedo. That's $200 installed off the bat. I can sell that front-end and get a stock 240sx front end and pay for the PS and whatnot with what's left. Minty fresh carbon hood too, I can sell the one thats on there.

    I can't. It's either one or the other, lmao.

    I'm not really going for attention, and it will be a LONG time until I get enough to put a 1j in the lexus. =/ I guess what I really want right now is a Raw and Fast car. I can do without AC forever. Powersteering can be put back in relatively easily, and the speedo thing can be fixed in an hour.

    Godddddddddddddddddd. Seriously? This sucks. =/ Badly. Not trying to poke fun or anything, but do you think the 7M had anything to do with problems keeping it running?

    Eeek, it's coming up fast! He's throwing in a brand-new VIS carbon hood. He has OEM JDM sideskirts and 180SX tails too.

    Yep... I don't mind everything else, just PS/Speedo. Apparently Tech2motorsports has a PS kit and a magnetic coil pickup and speedometer sensor to remedy both problems.

    Only problem is it's six hours away. If I'm going up there I'm trailering the SC to make a trade that day preferably.

    Not a tech. thread, but a question..

    Arghhh. I would preferably like to go SC300 with a 1JZ but I don't have ANY extra money. In all honesty, minus the flaws, that car is still worth more than mine. The SC bluebooks for 5 because it's got a lot of miles. I won't find a MKIII with a 1JZ swap or SC with a 1JZ swap for anywhere...

    A buddy of mine has some black leather seats in his 240. Hmm. How much work for the PS alone are we talking?

    Just to tack this on there, I think the seats are 180sx seats, not too sure though. And a walkaround video the owner did. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2005737558491175200&hl=en

    Is it really that much of a contrast?.. Are the seats really that bad?

    Yeah that's true. I have a friend with a Starion that's modded to hell and a lot of girls hate his car or are scared to ride in it. Maybe I should drop a 1J in the SC, but I don't have the coin for that.. Gas really is killing me though, it's pretty expensive.
