Lexus SC Engines and Transmissions

A typical Lexus SC engine in this generation is a 3.0-liter gasoline unit sending power to the rear wheels. The 3.0 MT Coupe pairs that powertrain with a manual transmission, so you shift for yourself. Treat this as one drivetrain snapshot, not the complete lineup.
