Topic: [Pending] $5750 Bitchin' 1995 Lexus SC400 - Ready to Race!* Class A

EDIT - I adjusted the price down to better suit Lemons market. Also updated a full mod list (see next comment below).

$5750 - - - 1995 Lexus SC400 Auto - - -  Located ~30 minutes south of Atlanta.

V8 race car that runs, drives, turns, stops. Passed Lemons Tech @ Road Atlanta 2023! [*Fire bottle needs recertification!!!]

Sits on coilovers [ insert brand name here], 4 brand new super mega awesome™ Cosmo Mucho Macho tires, auto trans shift kit upgrade, ARP wheel studs + STEEL lug nuts all around (if you saw us at Road Atlanta, you know why), etc. Previous team estimated current car weight to be ~ 3150-3200lbs.

Car comes with plenty of spare parts including:
- LOTS of brake pads
- spare driveshaft
- rear diff
- ECU
-2x fuel pump ECU
- alternator
- front calipers
- one spare wheel
-misc. gaskets and seals.

(404)-392-8612   -     please reach out by text only.

Photos coming soon.

The story if you actually care: I’m the second “owner” (in race car form). I bought it from a team who ran it regularly in Lemons in the southeast. lt was purchased as a backup car for us for Road Atlanta 2023. I ended up bringing it instead of the primary car due to timeline completion issues. We only ran it one “lap” because: “Hey didn’t that car lose two wheels at Road Atlanta 2023 on turn 2?” Well yes… but it now comes with installed ARP wheel studs and hub-centric rings!

I no longer have a reason to keep two Lemons cars in the garage. With 3 "race cars" now at the house, I need to get rid of one. While this one is arguably the fastest of the three, this is the only one that I have no emotional attachment to.

The previous owners/team did all of the work excluding the wheel studs that I did. They're floating around here somewhere but I have zero doubts on the work that was done. They're a capable team and are racing a different car now.

Unfortunately, I cannot be sure the exact kit. From my reading when I was briefly considering a manual swap, TransGo is pretty much the go-to kit. I remember there being one other brand thrown around but it wasn't mentioned on forums near as much.

Thanks - I didn't even know there was a kit. Imanoob.

Your paint job is impressive.
