What is more special?

[Lextreme II]

What is more special is the question?

1. A 1995 SC with 1997 body kit along with a brand new paint job, drop and a set of 19"

Or

2. A fully build race ready 4.7L with build heads?

All go or all show for now....

 

[UZZ30-Québec]

well, do you need a car, or an engine.

 

[1UZ-HZ]

That's too easy, build the engine first.

I'm thinking he needs both, but only has the $$$ for one... at the moment. I vote for show, it will make the go that little bit more satisfying when it comes along.

The motor will be ready to fire up in 4 weeks.

There are SC400's on 19" wheels running all over the place. I have not heard of a single SC470 to date.

I would definitely consider the 4.7L SC to be much more special than an otherwise stock Lexus on 19's.


ps. do the stock SC400 engine mounts take the 2UZ engine?

Thanks Blizzy... I think the same too... please read this page http://lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6409&page=3&highlight=SC470TT

The 4.7L motor in your '95 LS400 would win my heart for sure

You need to preach that to the "OMG VIP VIP VIP" idiots at Club Lexus. VIP = idiotic kids who think their 10-17 year old LS400s with body kits and big wheels make them look like they're rich.

The real VIP is having an LS600hL. No modifications, just having an LS600.

Therm,

You are right. I think of those kits are just plain ugly....

This is the motor going to my SC400 someday but now just N/A form:

With number 2 you wont need number 1.
Built 4.7L = instant cred.
