Nice find Ken! What are your plans for it?

Well first will be to pay it off asap. Hope to have that done in a few months. Then fix some suspension issues which plaque these cars like a bhg does a supra. Nothing serious for now though.

Engine wise, well I don't know. There are so many possibilities. I will not even bother trying to na-t this engine with it being a vvt-i, so if I decide to boost it, it'll get a swap of some kind. That's too distant though and I love the car the way it is so it may just stay the same. These are incredible cars. I will most likely firm up the ride a little with some new coilovers. That's about it for now.

It's effectively a MKIV N/A with a classier interior. Everything from the MKIV swaps over. You could throw a bone stock 2JZ-GTE with harness, computer and stock twins into it and have one hell of a quick luxury sport.

Oh don't think that hasn't crossed my mind. :evil2: Like I said before...soooo many possibilities. I think I'm going to like how compatible these and MKIV's are.

No na-t this engine. It's a vvt-i so don't want to mess with all that it entails to do so. Would be easier to just get a gte engine.

Here's a couple more pics

Steering wheel changed in 99. Funny thing about SC's is that just like in the MKIII world, there are pre and post 97 lovers. I like my taillights better than pre 97's. And I for sure like the front bumper better. To each his own, they're all sweet looking though.

I know, my bro had a black '92, my friend bought an identical one, except with the gold package and another both bought a 94 SC400, so I was enveloped...but I stayed true to MKIII's...:evil2:

I still wanna get a 5-speed RSP '97, auto couture front lip, and 95 taillights to use a with a duck's garden rear bumper..:love:
