The SC community isn’t going to like this. Only reason you can find these cars for under 10k still is because no one knows what they are

It used to be an unspoken rule that if you know what this car actually is you don’t talk about it.. that went to hell 🤣

I'm 20 and just bought my first car a 95 Sc300 😏 after working n saving for 8 months literally dreamed about buying this car and visualized it happening and now I finally have it, it needs some work but I'm so close to finishing it and taking it for the first spin good luck to all my sc fam

My son had one i had a mk3.These cars are extremely heavy.They were a best kept secret but you can still find them cheap because not many people like the style.

Great video on this lexus sc300. It's a great car .I have 1 for over 10 years with a 2jzgte vvti swap

Finally someone who makes a video abt this car. Definitely my favourite car of all time

Miss mine gonna re buy. Great video

Marvin Great Content my 1995 Lexus sc300 has the R134 trans, 1jzgte vvti with 6766 precision turbo 700 wheel hp with E85

it was a Lexus SC300 Project first’ released in 1991 before it was Rebadged and released as a Toyota Soarer 3rd Gen in Japan.. its the other way around.. ✌️the mark 4 Supra came 2 years later in 1993..

just bought a beautiful sc400 from 1992, every day it surprises me on how much of a gem it is

I got over the sc300 kinda quick. As a child I fawned over the a80/mk4, but then I got into auto tech and found out out about the SCs. Went to look at the cleanest white 60k mile sc400… but it didn’t work out. Years later and after college though, I was able to land myself a steal and got a black sc400 slick top… then like a couple months later another steal.. a low mile sc300 for the cheap. Well. Spent like thirty grand on building it… it was exactly like the supras I liked as a kid lmaoooo. But I sold it. Tbh, I think the boosted 400s are cooler now. Idk why I told this story lmao

I had a 93 and sold it back in 08 to pick a part after the head gasket blew for $300 bucks, needless to say I’m regretting it now🤦🏾‍♂️

Nice one🤝🔥💯👍💪

need me an is300. i have the sc300 or jzz30 gttl and gs300 and mx83 cressida also the soarer has all the trim bits that the lexus did. its just a matter of bodies of water and which side the steering wheel is on separating the labels also. its the first curvy car made, everything beforehand was boxy

FYI the JZZ30 chassis pre dates the MK4 Supra

Stock SC300 is like drifting a boat, in a good way :) Love driving mine when it rains for that matter lol

GOOD VIDEO

The Soarer/SC came first. Supra is based off of it.

Finally a video that mentions that soarers also came with 2JZ’s

Yoo the manual turbo came with a r154 which is a very good box. Not as good as the v160 but much better than the non turbo variant w58. R154 will handle 600hp no worries

i dont get why no body is talking about how little this dude understands, it isn't the same 2jz, and the reason they are so cheap isn't because people don't know about it, it's because the engine is very mechanically different than a 2jz-gte. While they share a block, you won't find the same forged internals and the "easy 500 wheel" you talk about in a 2jz-ge, the sc300 will need around 7k in forged engine internals to sustain that power without snapping a rod. The reason supra's are expensive is because the 2jz they contain can actually sustain around 700 wheel horse power without being opened up by forcing some more air and fuel into the cylinders.

I have only seen 1 GS300 ever. It did sound good tho :D

I miss mine 🥺

i own a 300 and a 400 great cars wont ever get rid of em

i have a feeling that the sc 300 is going to be mk4 supra level unobtainium in the next 2-5 years

Parts or hard to find or very expensive!! But great car !!

Is300 was my favorite car

I miss my sc 😢 it was a 99, with the facelift, I had a gte block and head I was getting machined but ended up having to sell the sc because my outside of city limits home got annexed and where it is inside city limits you can’t store an “inoperable” vehicle on public or private property. (Inoperable can be as small as not having plates, even if the car is fully operable) so it ended up being let it get towed and get stuck with the bill, or sell it. Nobody wanted to buy the basket case, roller but otherwise together. Had no choice but to sell it to a scrapper for $200. Still makes my blood boil

These are well known in the U.K. and also use the Toyota badge too.

calling the W58 manual "glass" is a bit misleading. sure with any "powah builds" you wanna replace it. But we have to remember that when we're talking power builds with a 2j, that automatically means like 600HP. You can safely run 350HP on the W58. Over 400HP is where you start to run into issues. I'd say a trans that can hold a cool 150HP over stock is not bad. that is plenty of headroom for a sub-15psi NA-T build.

You forgot to mention. The aftermarket isn’t as big as you think. Finding parts for these things kinda suck

Im have 3 34gtrs, 2 supras, 1 rx7 and 3 240sx sit in garage all low mileage

Just hoping prices dont go up before i cab finally geta. License

OK lets talk about the JZX100 and how the price is rapidly shooting up because Americans have learned about it.

We owe these cars a lot lol

Sucks Canada never got the SC300 but only the SC400

My twin bro had a SC300 standard and it was fast...

Around 30,000 cars is not a lot of cars. That’s pretty rare to me

It's not popular outside of Japan and maybe Australia. The Z is SWB

I'm going to double back

Soarer > Supra Fight me.

Soarer ?

I swear if people start raising prices on the sc300 ima flip.

Sc400 Ltd was way better. Engine was amazing

Toyota Soarer number one in my book have had mine since 2000 if you go in a deep dive you will find toyota used 1jz 3.0 in the 80's soarer Japan only, I don't agree with big turbo look for a 1jz and keep her at 400 hp more then enough for street and luxury let the mass of people stay with the supra

The poor man's Mazda Cosmo.

Just because a car cost less doesn't make it a better car. The Supra is the better car. It had a better gearbox, better brakes, was overall more performance orientated, and although styling is subjective, most people would agree it looks better. These reasons alone, the Supra will always cost more, but that's doesn't mean the Super isn't the better car.

Should I sell my sc300 for a 350z for speed reasons or no??

Ill be honest. i Own a toyota soarer 1991 it seems more luxurious than the SC400. It has touch screen from factory, Memory seats, leather interior, digital speedometer, air suspension, cabin air filtration system, cruise control and also a DVD player in the boot.

Biggie had one

There isn’t anything “glass” about the 5 speed.

Ya they wernt that known because the majority only came in an automatic.. so if its a manual probably a swap. Or super rare. I only remember them as like old lady cars. Lol

Scion TC

cortina either one

Can people stop being this car up, I don’t need the value going up

W58 isnt glass... I have a 5spd 95 sc300, 92 sc300, 92sc400, 95sc400 and a 97 sc400... get them.while they're still 1/10th of a mrk4!!! Or just let me buy them all!!!

Bruh this channel is just some dude spilling all the unheard car stuff just for some clout. Most car channels do that anyways. A lot of cars/engine that were not heard about get overpriced bc of videos like these.

my coworkers sc300 has a v6 am i crazy

Delete this vid now I struggle finding a decent sc400 for less than 8k already and now it’s gonna be alot harder 😂

Car go vroom vroom, very cool car I love car omg ❤️ 😍 😲 😱 he sounds like such a cute person and muscle guy 😲 😱 😲 😱 😲 😱 😲 😱 😲 😱

Dude don’t talk about it

the SC is basically a poor man supra

But they ugly. Any car guy will know where the honey pot engines are but just ugly. However a 1uzfe with a good breathing head and exhaust sounds sick.

Why all you people do is talk bullshit. There's noo CAR in or around the Toyota 2JZ SUPRA ERA that can be compared to the mk4 Toyota supra. It's not a joke.

It is an OK car but the MK4 Supra is better. No one dreams of owning a SC300... they compromise .. because they want a Supra but can't afford one.

400 over the 300
