  1. I just noticed today while driving around I have lost alot of low end...when the car went in to get the harness replaced it came back out low end happy then it went back in for valve adjustments and the timing belt replaced now i have less low end ummph but it shifts harder...what the heck is that???????? I use to be able to do a brake stand on any surface not only select but when it shifts now it does push you back into the seat more and you can feel it shift harder. Anybody know whats going on with it???
  2. Same thing just happened with me, got the car back from the shop from the electrical fire it had and she kicked alot more wierd stuff
  3. Hey looks good man I just orded the 14828's for my sc400 like 3 days ago the have the three inch inlet instead of 2.25
  4. There is a guy in aussie that makes a shift kit for the sc400 auto, no email or website justa phone number and address his info is posted somewhere on planetsoarer.com
  5. 10w30 would work fine, but if new york is still cold you will want to use 5w20 or 30 I use 15w40 myself but i live in arizona and drive the car hard so the eninge is always hot
  6. So much stuff to do grrr going to get the bearing thing checked first before doing everything else so that something doesnt bust on me.
  7. It is my understanding that a simple drain can be done on 2 quarts, i dont know about the 7 or 15 quarts for a full flush though. I am draining my 1992 this weekend or the next, i will let you know how much drained.
  8. Thanks bandit these are the little things i am looking for I have alot of performance stuff coming in the mail and I am trying to make sure it it in tip top shape before doing to much, also i have a slight bearing rattle noise coming from the serptine belt area if i turn off the A/C it doesnt do anything and moving the steering wheel doesnt either, the timing belt was just replaced and supoosedly the water pump was fine, any ideas on what it is???
  9. Yeah I emailed emerald directly she was really cool said it was shipping out today and finally gave me confirmation as wellas an added bonus a tracking number, guess it just took getting to the right person!
  10. brake fluid is getting done later in the month when i get the new brake lines didnt think of the diff or ps thanks
  11. Anybody have a step by step for draining the sc400 tranny?? or removal of the torque convertor?
  12. has anybody ordered anything form sc400tuner.com before???I ordered the stereo insert to replace the double din with a single din and gauges but i am having a hard time getting them to reply to emails and even confirm the order, they have only relied once asking my address used to order, i placed the order 3 days ago i would except at least a confirmation. luckily they use pay pal so if all comes to all pay pal can help me get my money back, but i was just curious to other peoples experince if any with these guys.
  13. Hmmm not to bad i would like to see the new pics, i ordered the insert from sc400tuner.com but I am having major troubles getting these guys to update me on an order status, I am getting really frickin impatient with them as a matter of fact Oh well once again not bad let me know when you got new pics up
  14. When i replaced my front and rear it was the same once the calliper was off it the rotors just slid off
  15. Well after almost 2 months I finally got my sc400 back, stupid thing had an electrical fire and the wiring harnesses had to be recreated in japan and sent over stupid stupid stupid, while they were at it they replaced my timing belt and adjusted my valves, they said it looks like it had never been done :whistles: 104,000 with no basic tune up and the guy said the coolant smelled like sh t too, he thinks it may be orginal as well, could have swore i replaced it once. Oh Well, i am juste xcited to have my baby (lexus...baby same thing) back. I am doing some more tune up work and some more add ons over the next 2 weeks, i am flushing the tranny, replacing the gasket and the filter in the tranny, hoping to put a lextreme t.c. in, putting on new distrubtor caps and rotors, replacing spark plugs and wires, and changing the oil as usual. Can anbody think of anything else mainatnce wise I should check on replacing????????I replaced the serptine not to long ago, just as a added note.
  16. Southernsc300 did you make your stereo mount to replace the stock double din?
  17. do you live in the south or the southwest? I guy i go to school with was thinking about selling his I am unsure of the year but I am almost postive it was a Black SC300 with the manual
  18. Why stay away from pulleys?????? BFI cheap, full exhaust not so cheap neither is cams, torque convetor lextreme has priced really cheap, I mean its just the combo in general its all about putting together a good system overall not just dropping weight here or jsut adding a cam and exhaust. HP is a tricky thing and sometimes the simplest things can give you good power gains othertimes it needs to be coupled with other items. I guess it all depends on your budget really.
  19. Man you are looking for a needle in a needle stack, it is hard enough to find an sc300 with the manual much less limit your color options
  20. I re did an MX-6 I owned for awhile with that stuff barely lasted a month, always had to touch it up
  21. Washer nozzels, arent they almost all interchanable you hook a hose up and mount doesnt seem to diffucult. Cant say I ever tried it but even simple logic would tell me that they would work. How much are they asking for just the nozzel you shouldnt need them to put them on.
  22. http://www.tmengineering.net/suspension/br...en/make/sc.html you should find this helpfull
  23. go to lextreme.com and email him he should have your answer
