i got a friend with a 97 sc400 and i have my 93sc400...looking for a few other sc300/400 people who want 2 get up and maybe hit the track or thruway...how sick would that be...possibly start a local car club...any takers?

i got my 1993 SC400last summer (2006) with 130,000 on it. got it at a used car dealership so who knows how many abusive owners she's had...he wanted 3900 but i got him way down...like 2700ish...
MODS: Toyota Supra TT control arms
: Tokiko shocks/struts
: NGK Premium Platnum Plugs
:17" upgraded wheels(lighter than factory)
:235/45/17ZR tires (the guy says "you can put cheaper tires on the car.you won't be driving it that fast"...my reply"just put the ones i told you to put on there"--TOOK HER UP TO 135mph!!!!
:new altenator/serpentine belt+tensioner when i got it
:upgraded radiator
:Alpine 3 disc in dash cd changer
:Pioneer speakers all around-working on custom set up in backseat with 6x9's IN the backseat seatbacks
:power steerig pump
what i want- either a conversion kit to make her a 6 speed or i want the 5 speed auto from a 97+
i love it. people sleep on it around here with all these acuras and beemers..."nuthin better than seeing the look of some punk kid with his shiney new beemer get stepped on by a car that cost under 3grand!"
anyway...i need some friends on this site so hit me up
HERE ARE MY BIGGEST PROBLEMS:
-when my boy hooked up his computer to see why my check engine light was on it was giving out ZERO POWER to his computer...which means it was not telling us whats up with check engine lights...the TRAC light is on too and the TRAC OFF light is on as well. if i dis connect the battery then hook it up again all the bad lights go away.then come back after driving for a little while(the computer resetting itself) MY QUESTION IS: could it be a bad fuse? i had the aftermarket alarm(some cheap *BLEEP*) removed. next i guess i should pull the radio and see if they botched the wiring? i doubt the stereo has anything to do with the check engine light though...HELP!!!!!

at this point i'd pay 500 bucks you know what they want for the interior door panel where i live at the dealership? 1200bucks! thats HALF of what i paid for the damn car! i'm still searching junkyards...any u can reccomend?

i need the factory or online manual for my sc400 so i can find out how to remove the entire seat and seperate it from the rails. once i get the seat out i am pretty sure you can remove all the power seat mechanisms and get a set of rails for the seat from a same year supra. i am trying to use as many supra tt parts as i can since they're cheaper than lexus parts. whats that about ten bucks a day for a manual or something? where can i find some1 selling the pass side door panel (interior) mine is literally hanging on by a screw

okay...so...i got my 93 sc400 last year. $2,600 and 130,000... at the time it needed a new altenator(2of the3 bearings were bad) so i replaced that and the battery. the serpintine belt and tensioner, plugs and wires (NGK premium platnum plugs) and recently did tranny flush and used 10 qts of toyota dext4,needed lower control arms- TOYOTA SUPRA TT ARMS and replaced struts-with TOKIKO'S...she handles like a dream and i upped the wheels to some light weight 17" with 235/45/17Z rated tires....now here are my problems...1)the check engine light is on and when me and my buddy try to see what codes its throwing back the damn car doesnt tell! Could it be a fuse burnt out? previouse owner swapped radio-has an alpine 3 disc in dash changer-which skipps when i hit any bumps-even with new cd's in there. i think the aftermarket altenator is trash or there is a wiring problem b/c when lights are on and i signal, the PWR light flashes a little...basically i have same problems as every1 else...instrument cluster is dark amd my TRAC light and TRAC OFF/CHECK ENGINE lights are always on. i need a passenger door panel ASAP!!!!like yesterday! amd i want cloth/manual seats so i can sit lower (i am 6'4) oh yeah! when the headlights are off the temp screen lights up but headlights or park lamps on the screen is not illuminated. oh! forgot to mention i charged the a/c 3 times this summer already! it goes away within 36 hours and it gets hot in there when i run it. and why cant i find the online service manual for this damn car!?!? if anyone knows where i can get one other than a lexus dealership for 300bones please tell me!
