Is This 500HP 2JZ-Swapped Lexus SC300 a Supra Slayer?! 

So we met up with Chris in the Target underground parking lot, and not 5 minutes after meeting him he was setting off car alarms with that 2-step at 13:57 xD

The Level of disrespect... That's real wood pimp... Check the fact sheet...

You should review my sc300 vs bashing this one...review my sc and tell me how you like it...you kinda sound salty in this review...

I stopped the video when you said it’s not a great looking car. Smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

The wood is not fake, I be owned several Lexus of this era. So much love for them.

Funny how people are hating on this car but has never owned or driven one 😂

You lost me at “it’s not a good looking car”

The reason for the similarities to a MKIV Supra is because this is the chassis (SC/Soarer) the MKIV Supra is based off, just like the MK3 Supra was based off of the previous generation Soarer.

If its a 2jz engine you cant say its a supra slayer,. That doesnt make sense

I'm a sc300 owner and I'm offended, ubsubbed.

He said that the sc doesn’t look good lmao 1000x better looking than the mk4 Supra

Love that the SC is gaining some traction now. Get one before the drift tax sets in guys!

You couldn't have found a better example?? Haha. The thing is rough. Plenty of clean SCs over there. Better still, a Soarer! They are superior to the SCs as they came with way better options. The SCs received a rubbish steering rack ratio - The Soarers have a tighter ratio. The highest spec (the UZZ32) was tighter still. A lot would disagree with you on it not looking good. These were far ahead of their time, looked newer than anything out there and still don't look old. They have a timeless design. They are beautiful. They were never created with a tough look in mind because as you say, they' were a luxury GT car aimed at rich older men. They came with 3 of the best engines available. The 2J, 1J Twin Turbo (Soarer) and the 1UZ. By the way: First gen SC400s started at 250hp and ended with the series 3 VVTI, making 300hp. The first gen 1UZ (thicker rods) can make 800hp, unopened, much like the 1J and 2J. Also, the wood trim is real wood and the seats are leather. Come on, it's a Lexus. Of course they're real.

Driving so many fast cars is the cause of that receding hairline

How do you 2JZ swap a car that already has one?

Ooooooh this is sick! I like this! More power to my Soarer and SC people out there

To beat a Supra, you must become a Supra - Aristotle

There’s a handful of us back in Vancouver driving sc/soarers with 1jz, 2jz and v8 from stock to heavy modified. These cars are overlooked and under appreciated.

Thanks for melting your face off in my car Marcus 😂😂. Had fun shooting this with ya!

mike myke said he wants you to drive his sc when its done

Says he hates RB anything.. *Names his car color as Midnight purple* Genius

California has automotive laws that don't help anyone. I love seeing people that are still passionate about cars in restricted areas. Awesome video and build keep up the good work.

Love these things. Over here in the U.K. they’re the Toyota Soarer with a 1JZ Turbo and yes like you say, the father of the Supra. And more practical. It doesn’t take much to make them look good and the 1J vvti version already has the power. I will be on the hunt for a manual one hopefully in the not too distant future! 😃

15:39 What's funny is seeing the perc you smoked stutter your thought process when deciding if the wood was real or fake lmao

Its four years later and the sc models are making a surprising comeback. I think theyre more popular bow than theyve ever been before.

disagree on the looks aspect - long hood coupe is hot stuff. sc300 late70's xj and late 60's early 70's e-type those, and new type-F are 4 cars come to mind as the elegant yet fast looking coupes. some might not even see why i place tose cars together. but the the body shape has simular overall lines. and i think there are not enough cars like that. but thats just my opinion. PS: just bought me an SC300 going to pick up tomorrow. was my dream car - got it ! :)

As an owner of a 2j swapped sc400, I liked this video the second I opened it. Can’t wait for summer. I miss my car.

Never owned one of these but they look good customized and way more original than a 240 or wrx. Thumbs up for being more original!

How ironic. I just reviewed the same thing! A 2jzgte swapped sc300. One of the most fun cars you can ever drive for sure. Truly an awesome experience. It makes all the right sounds, pulls hard, and is crazy fast depending on the build!

A 1999 sc300 looks better stock than a older sc

Engines you could include: Honda: H22/A, F20B, D16Z6 Chevrolet: LS1/2/3/6 VW: 1.8 AE888 Toyota: 7M-GTE, 1UZ-FE Nissan: CA18DET, SR20DET, QR25DE, QG18DE Mazda: 13B, 20B (engine code of the 2.3L. A lot of people like the Mazdaspeed 3) Mitsu: 4G63, 6G72, 4G64, 6A12 Dodge (SRT4): EDZT BMW: S52

Wouldn't it technically be the same engine just with a turbo?

How can you call a car that comes with a 2jz from the factory a 2jz swap it's not a swap it just a turbo install

SC400/300 is the best looking car of the 90's. I own this car since it came out then switch to SC400 in 1999. I never have problem on it just maintenance expenses.

Sc300 came before the supra and gave the supra the chassis of the sc300 so it's the father of the supra we know today alot of people dont get this.

Go Bald Marcus lol JUST DO IT!

SR-20 DET S54 RB-20 DET VR-38

No disrespect to the build or anyone but if your not completely satisfied with the SC then your in the wrong one. If you don’t like the looks then fine I understand that but get inside Mike_mykes SC and I’m 100% certain you’ll say something better. This is a beautiful build!! But This doesn’t really represent the SC300 in my books. @mike_myke show him what’s these are about please !!

When you lend your car for a review only to get trash talked... btw when did Jeremy Clarkson "famously" say it was the worst car ever made?

that car looks really rough!! at least a full repaint...

own 2 of them 91 Soarer 1jz R154 and 92 SC300 single turbo 2jzge with MC built R154 love both cars

This guys opinion on this car and his lack of knowledge as to just how close this car is with the mkiv made this video gut wrenching to watch

No... because it _is_ a Supra 😃

You won't believe me, guys, but I've seen this car in my dream tonight. But that was Soarer, almost the same. And today it appears on Roads Untraveled channel :)

I'm guessing this guy don't know about the Toyota soarer

Unless it has the actual factory turbo version of the motor it isn't any kind of swap, they came with a regular 2jz from the factory, assuming it's really an SC300 and not an SC400 in which case this would be a swap.

A simple 2JZ one would be awesome. IS300 2JZ GE VVTi over here in the UK going big single this year!

sc300s come with 2jzs stock? you mean gte swap?

Never considered a car with the same engine as a supra being a supra killer

B6ZE; I might be the only person that buys one since a lot of people are familiar with the Mazda Miata, but not as many know the 1990-93 NA Miata's engine code, B6ZE. It's just such a cool sounding engine code! It would be sweet to have a tag on my lanyard that actually matched the engine in my car, Miata Is Always The Answer!

Make a B18C

The 300 came with the 2jz motor. And considering you can make 500 on an NA 2jz why bother with all that extra work on a “swap” for the same motor?

I own an sc400. More in love with the 1uzfe platform than the jz.

Ive got some toyota engines :) 4E-FTE found in starlet turbos 1UZ-FE nice 4 ltr v8 7M-GTE MA70(MK3) Supra

LS1 baby the sacrilege swap 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥LS1

4g63 in red and black would be awesome. Keep up the awesome content.

Had an sc300 and sc400, love these, love the design... Stop hating people they look 90's curvy sporty awesome cars.

When you realize the Sc300 already has a 2jz-GE in it

I don’t understand why people say “JZ swapped” or “2JZ swapped” when talking about an SC300. They all came with a 2JZ native.

Good that you clarified the MKIV Supra. Earlier comment "predates the Supra" was totally wrong, as the Supra has been around since the late 70's

Thats a cute single lol. Should've kept the twins and just cranked the boost.

VQ35DE/HR

2zz-ge. Just a personal favorite

Earlier today i was re-watching all of the 2j cars on your channel... You read my mind

EA888 Engine code key chain for all us VW/Audi guys

I can't wait for New Supra 2JZ-Swapped😁👍

I see one on Autotrader, 8800 automatic. These are rare, love it

7M-GTE

Not a great looking car??? Are u high? I stopped this @ 4:13

SC300 gang!!

ECOTEC!!! for the mang gang in aussie!!!

Its not a swap!! He just made a ge nat. But i would love to know what exhaust this guy has because i have a sc300 waiting on me back at home

It’s not 2jz swapped because it comes with the 2jz

title is a little odd but the video is great lol

Title : 2JZ SWAP Stock engine: am i a joke to you?

So you 2JZ swapped a car that came stock with a 2JZ

the sc3/400 was ahead of its time and this review doesn't do the car enough justice. I just hooked a remote start in my 97 sc400 and it'll have a cd009 6 speed next. If he got anything right in this review its that the SC HAS CHARACTER.

doesn’t the sc300 comes with a 2jz stock? if i’m right the only difference between the 2jz in the mk4 supra and the one in the sc300 is that the supra has a turbo and the sc300 doesn’t

I wonder how long he's been driving on that drift motion turbo. 2JZ in that big car should be a great ride. I'm guessing it's not tuned?...1000cc injectors on E85...he should be getting 600 at the wheel.

A Supra is really just a turbo SC 300....

I bought my sc400 a year ago and it was on stock springs it was so dam ugly but as soon as I got the coils it was a wrap for the uglyness I even kept the stocks and they got compliments like ?? Who compliments stocks I felt so old that day😂I don’t understand what people see tho I mean I love it and it’s so dam reliable but it literally turns heads everywhere I go it’s cool but annoying I’ve owned it for 3 and a half months and been asked three times if I wanted to sell it like huh?are there really a following for this car I just bought it to daily so I can park my last daily a 97 type sh prelude but now I’m starting to get into the sc more then the prelude I wish I could post pics on here but I’m wondering should I leave the sc to sit and sell it later or the prelude??my prelude is still in really good condition I wish I could show pics but my sc is in really good condition despite the driver seat is completely thrashed to fuckn shreds, what’s some of y’all’s opinions? Oh and it’s a sc400 not a 300 ik the 400 aren’t even close in value to the 300 cus it ain’t no 2jz lol but yea lmk I’m curious n need opinions n insight

VR38dett engine jet tag is missing

I was actually waiting for this video to come out!!! Super excited gives me some ideas for my GTR!

Bmw m50b25tu, s50b30tu, s52b32tu, s54b32tu should be the next popular engine code jet tags. can't just leave the euro scene out my guy

I know you mostly do Imports put the LS motor doesn't deserve a tag? Yallstayblessed🙏☝

It's not a 2jz swap if it came with a 2j as all sc300s did. If anything it's a gte swap or head swap but I've even seen people go FFIM and put gte valve covers on a ge head making it impossible to identify. "NA-T" works best unless you know it's been truly gte swapped.

The 2JZ sounds like a tractor engine

B16, 17, 20, D16Y8, 17, 20, other vtech motors.

br0, how come you haven't made a roads untraveled lanyard? That would be dope af fam

You're right, your opinion of the looks of these cars is completely wrong. It's a balanced car, unlike a Supra. It's still better looking than most cars being produced. And it sold for a good bit more than Supras because in 92 it was much nicer than most euro cars. It was obvious you know nothing about this platform but had to do a video on it lol. He could have even rebuilt the GE motor and made 600+.

So is the SC300 the Original supra lol

They’re made with 2JZ-GTEs in them. But I could see where you built a different one and put stuff on it and then put it in this car. Then it would be swapped.

2GR-FE, a prime candidate swap for your MR2! Also don't forget 5VZ-FE for the Tacoma fans.

Don't know how people with modded cars get away with them lol, I got a 2jzge and i still get harassed even though im not that loud.

Any VQ35 tags coming in the future?

1uz KEY TAG !!

had two of the cars, one 2jzge and the other 2jzgte big single turbo 440hp. kept breaking my tranny and got rid it. these cars are timeless ill take an sc300 torbo over a new fake ass supra/z4 bmw any day

I love the channel by knowing that it is wonderful JDM🔰 ♥

2jz is like a dragon is just go WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Missing VQ HR37🤣
