  1. New here. Just bought the biggest mistake of my life, but I am taking it all as a learning experience & hope to get some fun out of it too. 1992 SC400 Previous owner swapped a 5 speed R154 transmission from an MK3 Supra, custom welded the shifter to extend to the proper location, 6 puck flywheel. He also put in Megan 32 way adjustable coilovers, rolled the fenders & threw on some 18" with stretched tires. So far I have had to replace the tires due to improper camber adjustment ($700), replace brake pads all around ($200), and now have a broken camber bolt that my shop is trying to fabricate a replacement for. There are many other little things that I will have to deal with over the next few months too. I overpaid for sure, having paid $5300 CDN. But I am learning how to do alot of work myself, and it is an absolute blast to drive when it's running. When I get the paint issues sorted out somewhat it'll be pretty decent, I just hope no other major disasters strike.
  2. I recently adjusted my Megan coilovers to give a little more ride height & brought my 92 SC400 in for a 4 wheel alignment. Well the shop managed to sheer the rear camber adjustment bolt in the process. I have called Lexus here in BC & they have none, Nor do any of the NAPAs or Lordcos. I believe I just need an OEM replacement, as that is what broke. Any ideas? Would a Supra or LS400 one work? The shop is going to fabricate one, but I'd prefer a proper replacement if possible. Very frustrating as my summer car is now stuck at the shop until I resolve this.
