Reason for no side shots yet, front rims are 15x6(6.5?) stock steelies. My one front rim is being refinished by the shop that scratched it while mounting the tire.
Back needs to go down anoth 1/2-1inch. My exhaust needs to have the hangers cut so it doesn't hang so low, and I need an alignment after I put the ruca on.
Then just add some turn signals for the front and I should be good :P
Here is a semi-side shot to wet your whistles.

Right now lowest point is my exhaust it's about 3-4 inches off the ground. Gap isn't as bad as in real life, its really only an 1inch, so I know I need to drop it that much.
Went to 2 different home depos and 2 hardware stores looking for what must be the most popular hex bolt in the world 6mm-1.0 20mm. So far I found two, only two more to go and I can put my hood on.
Still waiting for my project mu b-force pads to come in so I can install my brake upgrades.

yes, they're IS350 wheels, stock-sized IS350 tires (225 fr/255 rr).
The SC300 is definitely heavier, I can feel it just by the way it moves around corners and off the stop light. The inline-6 though is tricky, it feels like it's not accelerating that fast, but before you know it you're speeding. Mind you, this is compared to my old S14 (KA24DE) but there's a lot of stuff in the SC300 that I didn't realize I missed for so long when I had the S14:
...like air conditioning...
...like radio reception...
...like no rattles and weird noises...
...like a solid "thunk" when you close the door...
...like no water leaks in the side windows...
...like leather seating...
...like CUPHOLDERS!
As for plans, of course there's plans. But it's not going to be along the same lines as the S14 (which was touge action mainly). No, I'm not going to drift it. I'm not gonna say what "I plan" because things always change, but I can say this - some aftermarket brands I'm looking at these days include:
Auto Couture
Exclusive
Junction Produce
Wald
