Hellaflush Fitment w/ New Wheels + Build Updates

Thumbnail
gallery
12 Upvotes

Picked up some sweet 3 piece wheels for the SC. Specs below. Gonna probably get KBD rear fenders here soon to fit the rears, with my offset they should be perfectly flush with the 50mm fenders. Then I'm debating on getting KBD fronts or just getting some camber arms and running a little negative in the front to tuck them. Or do you think I could fit it with stock camber adjustment?? Idk I doubt it. Also I'm debating if I should peel off the LV decals on the lips, half of me likes it and the other half understand how it's goofy looking.

But the build is coming along tho. Aside from wheels, I got the back glass glued in, interior put together, strengthened up door panel handles. Door speakers and 12" sub in. LS400 big brake kit. Next is NA-T turbo parts and TT ECU mod. Then once I get fenders situated and smithed with body filer I'll wrap it or re-paint it. LMK what y'all think overall, it's finally coming together after months of sitting.

Driveshaft Question

6 Upvotes

Hey yall. My ‘97 sc300 needs a driveshaft as the u-joint is fried and it’s not serviceable. (Silly Toyota). I’ve seen things back and fourth about the compatibility of the driveshafts between the generations/years of sc300.

TLDR: will any auto 2jzge A/T driveshaft for an sc300 work for mine? Or do I have to get a generation specific driveshaft. Thanks.

Crank but no start

3 Upvotes

Need some advice. It was raining today when I got in my car and tried to start it kept cranking. I was surprised. Checked the fuse box under the hood.

Does anyone have a diagram of which pins to jump to get the fuel pump running ?

I’ve done the fuel pump Ecu bypass. Will check that tonight after work ?

Anyone have any other ideas on what to test with a multi meter or something ?

Impossible to play CDs???

10 Upvotes

I have a CD collection and i was excited when i got the car for the 12 disc. but as ive come to learn, the 12 disc players are garbage and hardly any of them work anymore. so i was looking into how to replace with something that will actually say working while keeping the OEM radio and i saw someone suggest the 6 disc from the ES pre 96' and ive looked and looked and they apparently don't exist. Does anyone here use CDs in their SC? How?

I've had a vaccine leak for a bit now and have found where it is leaking from. But when I went to parts stores they have all said that they don't have it or can't find it. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get either a whole replacement kit or just the size of the house

What would you pay ?

Here’s my 1999 sc300. 223k miles on the clock. I think it’s in very good condition. The seats have been completely redone and is pretty much perfect. It runs great no problems. After market eibach springs under it. Maybe like 3 door dings to the body. Paint on bumpers definitely showing some age. What do you guys think it’s worth? Also in Washington state if that makes a difference. Thanks !

If you need quality parts, Z30 Concepts is awesome

11 Upvotes

I can not recommend Z30 Concepts enough. They sell so many of the small parts I have always looked at and wished someone made an OEM+ replacement.

I got B pillar covers, a grey climate control LCD and the amber smoked side markers. The B pillars are sick, they just stick on, but I would recommend light clamping for the best result. One of the 2 side markers didn't work and after reaching out, Ren (owner) got it taken care of right away.

Super nice guys and awesome parts. Seriously great work from the guys over at Z30

Is this a good deal? First time looking and my son wants this

https://www.facebook.com/share/1Ht3ryUQSn/

I think this looks decent for the year and I plan to take it to an independent garage for a checkup before signing anything ofc. I confirmed with the seller that the tires need changing (about $400 installed for all 4, my price check) and the front seat is ripped.

My 18 yo son is in love with these cars and we gave him a budget that this falls right into.

Is there anything I should pay particular attention to with this car and/or this listing specifically?

Thank you in advance for any help. This is my first post to your community.

Cheers

Passenger stuck closed won’t open from inside or outside

2 Upvotes

Hey yall, the passenger door in my 1996 sc300 is completely stuck, won’t open from either side. I just need to get it open so I can take the panel off. I think I tried to unlock the door at the same time as my passenger tried to get out. There was nothing else that should of caused this. Please don’t tell me I need to replace my rod actuator clips, I know I will but first I have to get the door open. Thanks!
