Hi guys. This is Abdul from Dubai, working as a travel agent. Found this forum very interesting and informative..

Just bought recently a 92 model Left hand drive (we cannot register right hand drive cars) Lexus SC400, poor lady dint have an engine in it. I manage to get a 1JZ engine with 5 speed manual gear box with two little turbo's (twin turbo) and the ECU have been replaced. The car has gone for Full body work will be back in Two Weeks time (thinking to paint it dark red - Cherry colour). the car is getting ready for DRIFT..

A small question before you all get bored. Is it possible to fix all arms from a Supra to a SC400? (sorry moderator's if you all have answered this question but I have checked it all over the forum but could not get a solid answer)

we have many japanese right hand scarp cars (especially supra's and Soarers) with lots of modification in it. thinking to swap suspension, Strut and Sway bars, lower arm bars (all arms) and LSD to my SC400.

See you all

Greetings, Abdul. Nice to have you with us. Can't answer any of your questions, though. Good luck with the (continuing) conversions.

Hi Abdul, welcome to the forum. You've just answered one of my questions about Dubai, that I won't be taking my car with me. However my partner and I are thinking of moving there next year. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions about the place?

thanks guys....

Brenton. you are most welcome. Drop me an email with your questions. (Do we have private messaging on this forum to discuss off topic matters or we can discuss it, on OFF TOPIC thread)

Back to my question about suspension and all arms. I have checked few japanese websites like Tein, HKS and others. The part number given for Supra are the same as any Soarer TT or SC300 or SC400? Yes, that answers my question some how, but i thought some one on this forum must have done some thing like this.

Abdul, we do have a private message system, but a discussion in Off Topic about Dubai might also be quite interesting for some of the others too. :-)

Thanks Peter.

Looks like most of you would like to know about Dubai, Nice

Doug. I am very much enjoying the site. Dint find some much of information for Soarer so much and the best part I liked is the Basic Maintenance and Common Fixes Threads.

People are so lazy over here, that even to put coolant, every body will go to garage. the Labour is very Cheap in Dubai.

Now defiantly, I need to Throw all the Junk out from my Garage and Do a serious Shopping for Tools.

Well, where is all the good stuff about Dubai?

Possibly most of us have seen the pics of the massive development happening but to get a real view from someone living there would be great!

I've always wondered what the scuba diving was like around Dubai. Tropical? Many wreck dives?

Abdul, I hear that rent is very expensive there and that you have to pay 12 months rent in advance? Is this true?
