Default My bro might buy

So after looking around for a car to build up, my bro and i found a car we might get. Our goal was to get the ultimate sleeper car. I know it isnt audi and i do not like jap cars that much at all but this might be our best bet. Found a 93 lexus sc300 with the 2jz motor and a five speed. only has 40k miles on it in mint condition. anybody know much about these cars and what they can do? I know most parts are interchangeable with the supra and dont even think about going to the lexus forums, cause they are all asshats!

I just want to know if anybody knows about cheap but high hp turbo kits that will work with this car. The car is for 6 and we have about 5 more to spend to build it up! any suggestions?

Interesting concept, but I think you might be hurt by the weight of the car. A Supra of the same vintage appears to weigh up to 300 pounds less ( 3500 vs 3200 ). Then again, people would expect the Supra to be fast.

How about the Cressida - and drop a Supra turbo motor into it?

Well i think we wanted the sc300 cause it was still real luxurious and the interior was perfect. technically it is the supra motor, just the NA one.

One turbo kit was 5200 but gave 550 WHP!!!!!! Just need to get the supra six speed put in and should be good to go. Should be fast as hell! lol
