40R 6 SPD SC3
So, my Lex finally got here on Saturday! Since then I've bought a 6spd, RPS billet flywheel, B+M shifter, and installed my Volks that were on my MKIII. Now I just need to get a few misc parts to complete the 6spd swap, an AEM, and an Aristo front clip. Once that's done it's all ball! I'll eventually install a GT35/40R, but it's probably going to be a while. Oh, I also need to get some new DR's as the back ones are barely clinging to life!

Anyway, here are the pics!! Whatcha think?!

Thanks guys!

I still have the 90 sans several parts. The body itself is complete aside form bumpers and hood. The engine is sold, some interior is missing and the fuel cell set-up is gone though. However, there is a great 89+ parts car near me that could provide the complete interior, bumpers, hood, and some other items! I would sell my body SOooooo cheap right now to someone who would turn it into a car again! Hell, I may even be willing to send a 2JZGE 5-spd combo with it!

OMG hotsauce. Love the wheels

The car NEEDS:

1. Hella slam
2. Vertex

Then your car will pretty much be in a solid position to dominate the world.

Wow! Thanks for the rave reviews guys!! I didn't regret my decision anyway, but it's still nice to get some reassurance from others! Everyone I know seems to really love it. Hell, just today some guy pulled alongside me wanting to know what one would cost him he liked it so much! lol!

I must say though, I don't plan to lower it. I found out how hard it is to get a lowered car to hook already and I like to go fast! It really has a very small wheel gap as is anyway. That, and I barely have clearance for the fatties on the back when squatting at this height.

No kit on this one. I'm going for subtle and quick. Only plans are a 2JZGTE which I'll probably order in a couple weeks, 6 speed which is already on the way, AEM, GT35/40R, and a stock spoiler which is on the way.

I may end up putting on 97+ bumpers and skirts, but I'm not set on them just yet. Oh, I also bought all new stock emblems and am painting them black....maybe Hiro taillight covers...They're just tinted, plain covers...You know, to keep the stealthy, blacked-out look...

Haha! I have to admit, I thought a LOT about doing that before I parted it out! I've wanted an SC for years though, so I said what the hell and did it!
