Another SC300 Build!!! Helllooo

Love the VIP look, Hate the price. I had a gs400 and I loved it, riding super low, flush and tucked. But I really wanted air suspension...but college budget doesnt allow that, so I "downgraded" to an SC and got some goodies. Ill let the pics do the explaining. Enjoy!

PS, I still have alot to do. Most of the exterior work is done...now onto interior!!

I guess this is actually park height...but the more im getting used to air the lower im driivng. I jus dont know the limits yet so im gradually testing them out. The car isnt done yet. Missing alot of interior, wires everywhere, stance is off. But whatever...it looks pretty decent right now! Now to finish the small things..

Big thanks to Vinh, Long, Francis, Nick, and Tong (sp?) for hleping me get so far on this project.

I like what I see everything looks really good so far keep us updated

Good stuff man, I like what you've done.  The front bumper is sick, did you custom build that?  It's got more of a drift vibe w/ the bumper than the vip vibe imo, but looking great man.

yeah the kit is a bit agressive for the vip look, but then again im not doing a true vip build, so i guess we cool. Its motivation to get some power under the hood to back the kit up!

Great looking SC... Love my air setup too... seems like the lower I ride the better it rides

nice sc

Nice seeing you at Cham Sut Gol last week. Car looks good!

That's one hell of a "downgrade". Welcome to VSC. We'll probably cross paths at one point or another in OC.

Not so vip but im sure if you change the wheels it would improve alot more. Good work!

Yeah I totally agree, I'm deciding if I wanna make a this true VIP inspired build, or make it to drift spec haha. Ughhh desicions so hard...


On another note I believe I'm picking up some wheels real soon!, custom offsets and stepped lips too :)

Yeah man, I'm moving back to OC soon, lets hit up Cham Sut Gol haha

  Yeah! I was about to say! 
Surely he's just being humble. LOL

Haha yeah I guess i'm being humble, but I really do feel its a downgrade from a GS. The GS is such a sexy beast to drive around in. SC is such a different feel.


Anyways.....updates:

Ordered a new set of wheels that are a bit more agreesive then current. Also gold wheels...stepped lipped....20's.

Have 5zigens to throw on too.

Decided to take out the rear seats and make a molded subwoofer enclosure, looking at two 10's and an amp inbetween.

Hopefully blacking out all interior pieces too!

Welcome to the boards, gotta love air ! 

and can't to see what you have planned for the Sc, there are alot of nice ones on the boards
