Comfy, practical, built like tanks

It's the other way around. The Mark IV Supra is the little brother to the SC300 and the Mark IV Supra sourced it's 2JZGE engine; Subframe, Suspension and Drivetrain from the Lexus SC300.. The Lexus SC300 first debuted in June 1992. The Mark IV Supra debuted a year later in April 1993. I know the history of these cars like the back of my hand. Not to mention I have a Renaissance Red 1998 SC300 in Very Good condition. No accident history, No rips in leather seats, No Leaks of any kind, 115,900mi on her and runs and shifts smooth.

Owned a 400, currently have a 300. Absolutely love them both. I will never be without an sc, either as a daily or a project. Just gotta have it

Right on! In 1997 I was looking for a nice pre-owned sports coupe. Fairly quickly I started focusing on the SC300/400 line. I looked at the factory specs for the '94 models, which were available coming off lease and priced in the low to mid $30K range at that time, and noticed that the 0-60 time for an SC400 (auto trans only) was the same as the SC300 with the 5-speed manual trans. I ended up purchasing a '94 SC300 5-speed with about 30K miles on the odo. I immediately started customizing the car. I still have that car. It has an aftermarket turbocharger (338 rwhp at a modest 13 psi boost), lowered 1" with Eibach springs and Tokiko struts, aftermarket front head and tail lamps, all exterior badges removed and painted white sparkle pearl, 20x8 three-spoke chrome wheels and aftermarket SST mufflers. I was able to obtain the NM vanity license plate "LEXUS" (rear only as per NM law). The car now has about 100k miles. Since I live in Northwestern NM I don't drive the car much in the winter but enjoy cruising the many desert and mountain two-lane blacktops in the region the rest of the year. In the video taken while the camera was pointing at the driver I couldn't help noticing a crack in the upholstery that runs just under the window along driver's door. My car has developed a crack in the exact same location about two years ago. The only issues with the car (other than that) is the skirt on the drivers seat is cracked and replacements can not be had for love or money. The gauge cluster has also started flaking out. The speedo and tach work, but the fuel and temperature gauges do not. I have a line on several shops that may be able to repair the cluster but haven't followed through yet. New or used gauge clusters are totally unavailable. Personally, I prefer the appearance of the first gen SC's. In the second gen (like the car in the video) an unnecessary additional grille opening was added above the main grille. This just clutters up the front end in my opinion.

The engineering that went into these cars was impressive. One small thing I like are the door hinges, which are not really hinges but complex linkages. Look for a video on the doors for a reason to admire Toyota engineering.

I bought a red 97. SC400 on eBay for $4k plus 500 shipping. Put new wheels and tires, tuneup, new speakers and it is my fav car. I haven’t modified anything and it has plenty of power and gets a lot of notice. People ask me if it is a new Lexus model!! When I tell them it is a ‘97, they are amazed. Best $6k I have ever. Spent.

Excellent info here! He's right - these cars are jewels! I'm in my 2nd SC300, a '95, now a '98. I like the 300 - something magic about the inherent smoothness of an Inline-6. Also a tad lighter than the V8, which sweetens the handling. But I'd be happy w/ a 400 as well. Both engines are bullet-proof. And these are 'front mid-engine' cars, affording remarkable handling. Few things I'd change to lighten it up a bit. & the Lexus build-quality is unsurpassed. 'Love 'em! Thank U!

Dear Dust Runners, please do more videos on this car! It's still too slept on for its own good! Sure, you can turn one into a Supra equivalent, but you know what? I actually use my SC400 for its *intended* purpose -- as a wonderful, luxurious GT car -- and holy crap, this thing is the best car I have ever owned! It's nothing short of a Japanese Aston Martin!! More people need to know this!

Hello, just seen the video on the Lexus Sc300 /Sc400. I Have the Lexus Sc300 and I enjoy everything about it. I have gotten a lot of compliments on how NICE IT LOOKS FOR THE YEAR…1995. All black on Black leather interior with a 2JZ-GE ENGINE. It’s also the Gold Edition. I enjoyed your video and will continue to look up more information on this car but I just wanted to say : Great info and keep it going. Thanks !

Love the sc300. Probably gonna be getting one to go along with my daily while im in uni.

decided on a 96 sc400 just cause im not planning on doing very many if at all power adding mods. id just like a stock 250ish hp car with a nice sound and nice ride. 229k miles for 2500, call me crazy but ive got faith in these motors

Love your work

I own a 1uz non. What I had read online was that max boost was 0.5 bar on the thick rod motors. But after speaking to a few local enthusiasts I realized that not everything online is true. I have found 5 different options for lowering the comp without getting forged pistons. These motors are also built crazy strong. I was kind of bummed that I didn’t have a 2jz. But what I have seen the local car pushing on the Dyno with cheap is mods is incredible. Actually glad I never got that 2jz

I have had 3 sc 300 I haven’t come across a sc 400 yet I refuse to give up my 99 sc this video was very informational thanks.....

I have an sc300 in the UK.. I bought it 10 odd years ago from EVO magazine.. they did a feature on cars for under £1000.. and I got it for £800.. and they gave me all the magazine's it featured in too. Although you don't mention it, the Japanese import I have is a sc300 with the 1JZ GTE twin turbo engine, which was an auto but we are changing it to a manual with parts from a supra. These cars in the UK are fetching over £5k and as much as £10k for a factory manual JZ turbo. Which is a pleasant result and I'm glad I kept mine..

I love my 95 sc400. One of the best cars I have ever had. Super reliable, I can run it as fast as I want and she never gives out.

Overall a good review. Couple of things, the Z30 was first released in Japan in 1991 then it came out in the US, even though it was designed for the US market by Calty Designs then in 1992 the SC was released to the US market. For manual swaps R154 and W58 for the 1UZs have plenty of adapters, even though I do prefer having the CD009 (350z/G35) transmission for both the 300 and 400 since it's much more durable and is a six speed. I'm still trying to figure out why the cars are not popular but in a way I'm glad, used prices are low for both the car and individual parts unlike the Supra. Also the SC came before the Supra. The popularity of the car may be less due to it's original popularity, which was focused to be a luxury grand tourer instead of just a performance oriented grand tourer like the Supra, so most people didn't bother with it and all the cars you mentioned in the list were popular since their debut. Keep up the good work

The subframe will bolt up but they are also very different. They do share a general shape but all the Supra arms are shorter than sc arms, so the track width is narrower, the rear diff is different, the sway bars mount differently. The rear subframe is the only thing suspension wise that is exactly the same. The front frame rails are also very similar.

Great info on your video man. I am looking at maintaining a SC 400 stock and just dressing it up with wheels, tires & suspension but keep it stock as a daily driver. I drive a 2010 Dodge Charger SRT 8 daily. They only made 688 in the US of this Make & Model so people keep telling me to garage it. HELL NO!!!! I drive my dam cars. Plus I am 6FT 7IN tall and few car fit me. But the SC 400 was something I loved when I first drive it back in 1993. I wish their was one not all trashed out when I got the SRT 8. So now that the kids are gone I have a little extra income and I want a SC 400. Keep me posted on any good tech tips & what to look for when buying a used one. It would be much appreciated. YES I Subscribed :-)

Just picked up an sc400 shell, I got a factory 5pd sc300 drivetrain to throw in it. Wish me luck lol

Anyone know what transmission they used with the one manual sc400?

I always wanted one of these in the 90s, but they were waaaaaay out of my price range. I didn't know anything about cars then, and I just thought they were beautiful, luxurious, and cool. Fast forward to now, and they are so rare here (Canada, west coast) that 90% of people have never even seen one, let alone can identify it. And then it happened: I saw one for sale, in mechanically new condition, and with a dirt-cheap asking price. And then yeah, I found out on my own, exactly what this video is saying: it's a Supra, but with luxurious wood and leather! I was like, "Gimmeeeeeeee!!" What a steal! Easily the best kept secret in the JDM world. This is the most underrated GT car in the history of cars. If it goes up in value in the future, great. I will be thankful I got one while they were cheap, and nobody knew they were actually Supras under the skin. If they never appreciate in value, that's okay, too; I will still looooooove my car for what it is. Oh, and it gets jealous looks! The day I brought it home, nobody in my neighbourhood knew what it was. They just knew it was long, sporty, and had that expensive, "L," on it. They just assumed that I was rich, and they were just filled with quivering, envious rage. Haha.

People tend to write off the Z30 Soarer/SC chassis mainly because a bulk of them were sold only in auto and it’s quite rare even on the JDM Spec that had the 1JZ with manual and they fetch serious premium now that word is showing up that this chassis is a excellent option to the A80 though overall clean examples are still reasonably priced with the 300/400.

LS400 are nice cars too, you won't be disappointed if you get yourself an SC though!

Can you swap in the R154 transmission or the W58 transmission

Both the sc300 came with an optional w58 manual trans or in Japan they sold the soarer which is the same as the sc400 and sc300 except it came with a 1jz gte and optional r154 transmission

My 1992 soarer has a 1jz twin turbo. So far as i know ALL the uzz30 came eith the 1jz gte from 1991 till 1999 or 2000.

i have an automatic sc300 and im feeling empty inside not knowing the feeling of shifting in it :/

I feel your pain. But soon I will be shifting. No turbo for me. This will be my fun daily and don't need crazy power just enjoyable ride

How did you manage to blow up a 1UZ, do tell good sir

I have a 92 sc300. Both ball joints went within a year of each other. $2k to fix. Bad in the northeastern US weather. Other than that, it's been good
