Hey, i have a sc4 and now im going with a 97 sc3. And obviously i am going to go na-t to beat the power of the sc4. Who else is in the tampa area?? What kit do you think will be the best for 450-500whp, i need a least beat the new gto.

welcome. is the sc3 a 5spd. i'm piecing my turbokit together and should be ready by feb.. u could just go with one of the well known turbo kits like boost logic, dave h, etc... and as long as u have the supporting mods, fuel mgt , inj, clutch, etc.. u can achieve the 450+ hp.. i'm in ga

Tring to find a manual is to hard and expensive, I'll probably just keep the auto until it goes and then swap in the getrag. I'm really looking for a kit that would spool at low rpms and max out at about 700hp, haven't really looked into any of the kits so i dont know. i may be tring the stock head gasket too with 10psi or so, looks to have a ton of torque and i like torque. Basicaly im just looking to get a car length on my friends gto bc he likes to make fun of jap cars

well i think i found what i want http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=194276076&dealer_id=51362909&car_year=1993&model=SC300&bkms=1136603572525&lang=en&isp=y&start_year=1981&certified=&search_type=both&distance=25&make=LEXUS&min_price=&address=34691&advanced=&end_year=2006&max_price=&cardist=3

not really my taste in looks but w/ kit and paint it will look good maybe some coilovers. the only reason im looking into it is bc its 3miles away from my house. Ill have a looksee tommorow to see the condition. since its so cheap i will be able to forge the internals and go for some serious boost. Any comments on the car? where do you guys go to find parts for the w58 trannie?
thanks a bunch
