It is still an awesome car, but it will be perfect if I throw in $2K to fix all these and more for a new paint job (people in my neighborhood can't drive).  |
Yup. I had an SC400 several years ago in college as my project car. Had to fix and/or upgrade every issue you listed, and did a manual conversion. I even had the ECU capacitor failure twice, so I built a Megasquirt 3X ecu for it. I think I was the first person to run a 1uz on Megasquirt with completely stock ignition and injection systems actually. After all of that work (which probably cost me less than a set of nice M3 coilovers in total) the car was great haha.
