Don't worry, I'll still be active and help out from time to time. GVR4 is no more.

 

[grothe3297venge]

Nice switch! I have always had a soft spot for the Lexus IS300. Anything done to it or did you get it near stock? Only reason I ask is because the pic of the block, or do you have plans for it?!

Lastly, congrats!!

 

[Oldsid]

The IS300 is definitely not the dark side!
May the force be you in this project

 

[JusMX141]

Man, the IS300 is my luxury performance car crush. Wanted one since the moment they came out. Sweet buy!


Also had a thing for the GS300 from the same era....would love to see one of these sleek sedans with a Supra powertrain.

 

[snowborder714]

Ya, too bad that 2jz isn't going in the IS300...

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Did the
Vr4 go to a good home at least? It's not in my garage so

 

[Lofty]

Haha, it's a 2003 5 Speed manual sport design.


156k, but it feels like showroom new.


The 2jz is for my fat girlfriend pictured here.

This x7,250

The "stance" thing is so rediculously ###.

 

[Lofty]

What is stance?



Trendy term made up by people who do what's popular and most likely wear OBEY snapbacks.


I'll throw my MB Weapons on it and maybe I'll drop it. I'd much rather have a slight drop with stiffer suspension.

The Cressida drags frame, don't want 2 cars that do so.

driftcar=/=stance

 

[iiNFAMOUSCHRiS]

what's with the pedals on the IS300? they look.....weird

 

[LandoAWD]

Don't listen to people with no taste.

Put some proper wheels on that thing and lower the SOB.

 

[Lofty]

what's with the pedals on the IS300? they look.....weird

The fact that there is 3 of them or....


Lando if you know me like you do you know that it will probably inevitably have coils on it.

[Lofty]

Being blocked by part of the dash. Look carefully. Not small pedals
