Good work mate!
The rear brakes are exactly the same as the is200 I believe, so if you ever fancy a big brake kit let me know

Lexus are rather good at sharing parts...rear brakes as IS200/300 , front pads as GS430 but calipers are a one off to the SC.

I could tell the front shocks were past their best but I put it through the mot.....and it passed !!.... I have many speed humps around my way and could feel how the car crashed over the humps yet with the mot bounce test and not leaking successful it means a pass !
So shocks off the car ..and as you can see couldn't get the clamps on first two coils so going have to squeeze the others up tight

No updates over recent months just been enjoying driving it....top up and down
Have been trying to buy a decent pair of 7440 reverse LED bulbs but to date 2nd lot of old **** from the far east !
Both sets cheap and can be used in other places on the car but the reverse lamps are mounted lowdown and onboard , give a very poor light beam
