New Owner, Sc300 5-speed (56k Warning, Semi-big Pics)

[Raine.]

Just want to introduce myself, I've been lurking around here for about 2 months now. I recently purchased a 1995 SC300 5-Speed, here's some pics:

...and some have seen this already - it's a Pshop job (LOL):

She's in excellent condition, paint is good, interior is almost perfect (usual crack on door sill, and crack in A/C center vent), Engine is clean and well kept, it was dealer serviced it's entire life. I have Espelir springs sitting in the box in my trunk (I need to get those installed, I'm getting lazy to do it myself) and I also have 19"s on the way.

Quick background... I used to be very active in 240sx forums, as that was my previous car. I decided to sell my 240sx last month because I needed a larger, "more mature" car. I'm not newb to cars or forums, so I know how it goes... just gotta get the feel for people here. So far I've learned a lot reading through the SC300 threads. Hopefully I can contribute as much as I did in the 240sx forums the last 3 years :D

welcome! car looks great!

Dude your sc300 is awesome. It's gorgeous and mint. And a rare manual! Those is350 rims look great. I would keep those if i were you. I think any higher and you start diminishing ride quality with no performance gain. I am jealous. My ls400 is starting to look like an old !Removed!'s car in comparison. Oh well. Welcome to the club man.

great looking car. i used to have a 92, then a 94 that were sticks as well. man i still miss those cars, they were a blast to drive.

On the center console just right of the radio, there is an object sticking out. What is that? It was removed from my car before I got it and there is just slot for what ever sitting there empty.

It's the accessory cup holder; it was with the car when I bought it.

actually if you get the right-sized air freshener it drops right in there and doesn't rock around like a cup would B)

Your SC looks great. Is it lowered? It sure looks like it....

Raine, Those is350 rims were a prefect style\look for the Sc. To bad they weren't OEM on the Sc in '95, I would have been one :D camper.

yeah, but it would still be stock. lol

[SuperCoupe400]

That is one soweet ride Raine! I was THIS CLOSE to getting the exact same color '95 SC4 just before I settled with the one i've got. Welcome to the club. :D

I must say that I like those wheels you had on there in the first shots. But the slammed low-pro look is on point!

I've seen your KAY avatar before though. Did you used to post occasionally to the Integra forum (formerly honda-acura.net) back around the late 90's/early 00's? I used to frequent that one when I was still running my '91 Teg. Like you, I also felt it was time to upgrade from the immature 'ricer' persona and step into something luxury-sport.

I didn't really have that "immature ricer persona" when I had an S14... too old for that =D

...oh, and the picture might have been old on the avitar, but I added the "Kay" part to it a couple years ago, so wrong person

[jordanair45]

Very nice! Do you plan on doing any engine mods?

[darkgable143]

BEAUTIUL CAR! IT SEEMS LIKE WHEN YOU GET AN SC WEATHER IT'S A 300 OR 400 ONCE YOU DRIVE IT YOU'RE HOOKED. I GOT MY 1993 SC400 ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND I'M IN LOVE WITH THE RIDE, THE POWER THE LOOK. I AM A OFFICAL SC LOVER. I DROVE A HONDA ACCORD. I WOULD CHECK OUT THE HONDA FORUM AS WELL. BUT THEY DON'T HAVE THE LOVE WE HAVE FOR OUR AUTOMOBILES. I AM PROUD TO BE PART OF THE LEXUS OWNERS CLUB, IT KINDA HAS THAT STEPFORD FEEL. DOES'NT IT?
