You have airbags in your seats which would be a problem.

A company in San Deigo makes good covers with slits in the side for the airbag. They aren't cheap, but they are really well made. The only problem I have is that they do not have covers for the back seat. If you need these you must pay them to make a pattern first and then the covers.

If you decide you want them and also want the back seat, perhaps we could split the cost of having them make the pattern?

Indio, good tip, thanx, will not be getting back seat covers.

Seats on my 2002 SC430 are black, get pretty hot this summer. Anyone know a good source for sheepskin seat covers?

Hi,

When I'm driving the SC along paved roads, the car sometimes tends to follow the cracks at slow speeds (<40) and such in the road (steering wheel steers itself from left to right slightly). What could be the cause?

I changed to Michelin Pilot Sport tires on my 2002 SC430 and got rid of most of what you are complaining about. The original tires stunk.

Check Control arm bushings and ball joints. That usually is the cause. You may also want to look into replacing the steering bushings if you have somewhat high mileage. A good way to make sure the ball joint on each wheel is ok is to jack the wheel up and then tug the bottom of the tire or the top towards you to check to see if there's any movement.

I just put on all the final works to my suspension,

1. Daizen bushings front upper control arms

2. Daizen Bushings Front Lower Control Arms

3. Daizen Stabalizer Bar Bushings Front / Back

4. New Stablizer Links

5. Eibach Springs

6. Tokico Shocks

7. Upper Strut Tower Bar

Now the car is glued to the floor. and perfect handling. I dont know about other sc400s but my handling and drive was just not smooth at all.

forgot to say I have a 2002 SC430.

How is the ride quality with the eibach/ tokico set-up.  Is there any fitment problems or any unusual sounds coming from the suspension while going over bumps. Like a clunking sound.

Theodore, I have obtained the Daizen bars and bushings but need to install them. Do you have someone within driving range of New York City who can do this?
