Description of 1993 Lexus SC 400

** DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU PLAN TO PURCHASE ! ! ! **

** NO RESERVE ** I'm selling a truly one of a kind 1993 Lexus SC400 twin turbo V8 converted to a Getrag 6-Speed manual trans. Every inch of this car has been rebuilt.

Suspension : MK IV Supra Struts and Springs. (Used for drag racing) Car also comes with a set of, Supra TT KYB adjustable shocks, with Intrax Supra TT springs. lowering the car about 3 inches.

Brakes: Supra TT four piston calipers front has brand new Pads, and rotors, Stock Lexus SC brakes in the rear (Used to fit a smaller 15 inch rim for drag racing) Brand new pads. Goodrich SS braided brake lines.

Rear-end: Car comes with a 4.10:1 Clutch type LSD and rear-end (7.5 inch gear - Housing) I also have a Supra TT 6 Speed rear-end W/Torsen LSD. (9 inch gear - Housing), but this will be sold separately. I will give the winning bidder first option to purchase the larger rear-end. The last new TT rear end just sold from Toyota for $5,000

Trans: Supra Getrag 6-speed trans, Quarter Master dual disc sintered bronze clutch. (This is the same clutch used by NASCAR, and the IRL.) Quarter Master rates this clutch to over 1100 ft-lbs torque.

Driveshaft is 4.5" Aluminum driveshaft custom made by the driveshaft shop.

Motor: Lexus 1UZ-FE Aluminum 4.0L V8 with Pauter connecting rods Ross forged pistons 8.5:1 comp. Tundra Oil squirters installed to supply oil to the bottom of the pistons for cooling, and lubrication. motor has been rebuilt. Currently has about 1000 miles on rebuild. The 1UZ 4.0L V8 has 33% more displacement, then a 3.0L 2JZ, plus weighs much less as the block is aluminum.

Heads: Ported & polished with Lexus GS400 MLS head gaskets. Upgraded Supra Valve Springs (I don't remember what type)

Intake: Ported n polished. 8 additional injectors have been plumbed into the intake manifold to supply the needed fuel. Motor has 16 injectors total. 8 stock 265cc Injectors and (8) 900cc Venom injectors

Fuel: the motor has 8 stock injectors which are controlled by the stock ECU. This allows the car to idle and run just as well as a stock SC400. 8 additional 800cc injectors which are controlled by a 034 EFI supplemental injector controller. This unit adds fuel as boost pressure increases. This system has it's own fuel tank, pump, and lines. I did this to be able to run a second fuel under boost. either high octane gas, race fuel, or alcohol. (Currently I'm running E85) This allows the car to run on pump gas while driving around, and the ability to have high octane fuel on demand when boost pressure is present.

Radiator : Custom made aluminum radiator. Custom Polished Stainless Steel radiator tubing

Turbo Kit: 100% custom made kit. Most of the kit is polished stainless steel. SS Headers, and SS Down pipes are polished. Both radiator hoses are polished stainless steel. This car can easily be made into show winning quality, although my plan was just a great street car.

Inter-cooler : Twin Garrett 12 x 12 x 4.5 inch cores fabricated into A 12 x 24 x 4.5 inch inter-cooler. Each core is rated by Precision Turbo to be efficient to flow enough HP for 550HP each. that is enough cool boost for 1100hp. With E85 this setup is good for over 1400HP

Turbos : Brand New Twin GT35R dual ceramic ball bearing turbos .82 ar exhaust Less then 100 Miles on them.

Driveshaft. : "The Driveshaft Shop" 4" aluminum driveshaft with CV joint instead of U joint. Brand new, Less then 100 Miles

Exterior: Body Was just Painter. It is in excellent condition. The few small issues (Dents & Dings) which the car had have all been fixed. She is beautiful. Not a single flaw!

Interior: is in good condition.

Brand new 220 amp alternator. 10 miles on it.

Wheels: The car comes with the white, and silver ASA wheels. The car does not come with the gold wheels!

This car was a very fun project for me to build, and drive. The car has run consistent low 11's with a best of 11.01 @ 133MPH.

The car is making about 700-720 HP to the back tires at 19-21 PSI that should be close to 800 at the flywheel. With some tuning the car should be able to handle around 1100HP

I was in a bad accident (in a different car) about 2 years ago. The accident has made it difficult for me to handle the acceleration. I get motion sickness pretty bad. I haven't driven this Lexus other then just around the block since. The accident has just made it to difficult for me to race the car again. The car will need to be tuned again, as it has not been tuned with the new turbos. The tuning software can be downloaded, and is very easy to adjust yourself.

There is no reserve!!
Please bid with confidence. $1000 deposit is due with in 2 days. Deposit is none refundable. You are welcome to come look at, and drive the car before the auction end. The car is located just North of O'Hare Airport Near Chicago Illinois.
