$4,000 would get me a barebone turbosystem
 One thing I've noticed about exterior enhancements--people grow tired of them after a while, or they get old with new 'trends' popping up day by day. In either case, performance will never become outdated or obsolete. Oh, and dont be afraid, the 2JZ-GE CANT get hurt. Most of its components are identical to the GTE and to top it off, its a 6 shooter, which tend to be immune to fair psi.

I'd make it a sleeper. Plain on the outside, gooey turbo-cream filling on the inside. :flash:

Right on, Silver S2000.... you know what I'm talking about when I say that the streets of Southern California are cluttered with far too many 'loud' cars, not with audible but VISIBLE noise. Countless japanese autos with their unpainted-yet-installed, fibreglass, ill-fitting, nonfunctional ground effects.
Sleepers are extremely rare these days, and it would be very refreshing to get whipped by one. |

Right on, man! :high five:
Seriously, my car is old, and doesn't have much going for it other than it's a stick. Still, that alone is enough for me to get the jump on street lights or let me downshift on the freeway and let some poser in an ugly, slapped-together Civic a taste of my dust. |

i agree on the sleeper look...
figure a silver is300 with no body mods, and a sick turbo with a relatively quiet exh on it... and some 18in ro_ja rims in gunmetal... the ones on the cover of the new superstreet (the turbo four door teg)... that would be the shit... oh, and a six speed swap from the jdm version... and a full debadging... with black mesh grilles in every opening... and a black chrome intercooler... hehehe... i could go on, and on, and on... |

Query:
The IS300 is not available in manual transmission. Wouldn't the transmission from the '93+ naturally aspirated Supra fit into this car? Swaps are generally expensive; with the wide availability of this piece of hardware, it could allow for a nice, cost-effective modification. Of course, that would mean 5-speed only. The Altezza tranny switch would probably require a change of the motor, as well (which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't such a pain to do, with limited availability and future smog checks). Now that I think about it, with additional work, the 6-speed from the Supra turbo models could work as well. But then again, all the Supra gearboxes may be too large. Heck, I don't know. The IS300 is still a relatively new car... any ideas, anyone? |
