The first generation Lexus SC300/SC400, nicknamed the "Bull Demon King" JZA80 Speed Overlord, should be well-known to everyone, but not many people remember this Lexus SC, right

In 1991, Toyota appointed its California Design Institute to design a luxury two door sports car, giving birth to the all-new Lexus SC. At the same time as the release of the first generation Lexus SC300, Toyota in Japan also released a new third-generation Toyota Soarer, codenamed JZZ30. Although the SC300 and JZZ30 have the same appearance, their performance is very different. The JZZ30 Soarer is equipped with a 2.5-liter 1JZ-GTE turbocharged engine, while the SC300 is equipped with a 2JZ-GE engine. Although it is not the legendary 2JZ-GTE engine of the A80, the main difference between the two is that the GTE has a turbocharger, while GE does not, In addition, there are some subtle differences, but as for the turbo, it's better to just install it yourself. Therefore, many people in the United States who want to play with the 2JZ engine but cannot afford the Subaru will choose to buy the Lexus SC300 because the price of the SC300 is surprisingly cheap.

The Japanese may have realized later that good things cannot be monopolized by Americans, so in 1994 Toyota launched a new Soarer in Japan, codenamed JZZ31, with performance specifications consistent with the Lexus SC300 in the United States.

The Sorer also has a 4.0-liter 1UZ-FE V8 engine version, which is called the Lexus SC400 in the United States. Although the reputation of the 1UZ engine may not be as great as that of the 2JZ, don't underestimate it. The 1UZ engine can be considered the world's first reliable DOHC V8 engine. One reason was that there were hardly any cars on the market at that time that had DOHC V8 engines, and the other reason was that most cars equipped with DOHC V8 engines were supercars. In short, the JZA80's supercar's halo was too large, which caused it to surpass the Lexus SC. In fact, the SC was a luxury and high-performance GT sports car. Instead of spending a lot of money on the JZA80, it was better to buy a cheap SC300 and modify it yourself.
