Hey does anyone know about any group getting together in NY city area?

←

There's one coming up this Sun the 30th

it's carry over from the snowed out 23rd.

It's going to be at the Ikea near Paramus NJ

I was looking for some new springs for my car, and i cant seem to find a decent deal on the Pro-kit springs for my car. i found a good deal on some SC300 springs and i just wanted to know if it would work without any major issues. i know the 400 is a little heavier, so would it really make a huge difference?

←

The SC400 is ~100-150 heavier in front.

so the sc300 springs will have a slightly lower spring rating.

The car might be 1/4 inch lower in front with the sc300 springs

but aside from that it'll work

Most likely its a blown strut, but random acts of god may have actually bent a control arm or something.  I would put my money on the blown strut though

←

My car's like this and I need a new one too. Front right though. Not sure if its blown or a different kind (my car was in a wreck). I think I might got all new lowering shocks & springs.

BTW I was quoted $75 for a complete strut and spring assembly from 2 different places so expect to pay about that much.

←

yeap sounds like a blown or leaking shock

can anyone sell me a copy of the factory service manual CD

←

what year is your car 92-96 or 97-99?

My power steering fluid is bubbling out, even with the cap on firmly.  It appears there is maybe air in the lines.  How do I fex this problem

←

Did u top it off recently?

maybe the small filter at the bottom is clogged.....

I have a set of brakes available

with new pads too

yeah the SC with TT Shocks and TT Eibach's will drop the car 2.5"

check the pick up in the rear pumpkin

too bad no one makes Urethane kits for the SC :(

try a carbon fiber hood, that will save you over 100 lbs!!!!

also relocated the battery to the trunk

that would help with the weight distribution

jeremyp:

where are you located?

what color is the kit?

thanks

Ken

I've seen it on Ebay

yeah, don't do it

take out the factory head unit, it's 2.5 din, lots of space there

money wise it's not a practical thing to do,

your best bet is to sell the car and get a SC300 with a manul

and maybe get a NA-T kit for more power

There's a member on clublexus, but the name Phil who wrote a how to on converting over to a TT,

the manin thing he has is the wiring diagram, that's pretty helpful for witing up the 2jzgte to the sc300

2.2crx:

you best bet is to had a NA-T kit

the NA-T supra's run pretty well some up to 600hp

so there's really no need to swap out the entire motor.

the 2JZ-GE is a pretty solid motor itself, only thing missing is the oil squiters used to cool the cylinders (but thats over kill in the GTE motor)

yeah they sell something like that in the JC whitney catatlog,

they have mostly crap in there,

but I did see something to raise the car.

You can get supra TT brakes for like ~550

Try a can of Super Seal from Quest.

Autozone carries it.

Works pretty good
