    Man this is so badass! I have an 03 is300 & I can relate on what you said about it being underpowered with its original set up. I have been thinking about an LS swap so much lately, I’m glad I found this video, it convinced me a little more 😂 great build dude! Excited to see more

    Nice is300 build, I have a 2002 is300 with an ar5 and will eventually go turbo on it. For front calipers the ls400's are a pretty good value.

    Awesome build! I'm surprised I haven't seen this car around. I recognize several roads you turned on and off of. The area you drove has been my favorite cruise since I was a teenager.

    Great build. I have a 2005 factory MT. With the over the roof prices of GTE engines, I changed my plan from "how fast" to "how far" my car will go. It's great to see alternative builds. Thanks. BTW, you should sell me your sports design wheels in your garage, lol. :D

      I’d keep the factory MT, you can always get a AT IS then you can do an LSx swap on that.

    Appreciate you making this video! Good luck with your UA-cam channel keep making content there is a big fan base with first gen is300. What did the swap cost you without the price of the car?

    Hey man I’m in Virginia too! Nice to see these videos. I have a sportcross and I’m planning on doing a turbo build and a 1UZ swap on another. How’d you pass emissions in VA? Or inspection

    • @mgarcia7685
      @mgarcia7685  3 роки тому +2

      Nice man! No emissions testing down here in Richmond and I have my own inspection license, although there’s really no reason it wouldn’t pass. Good luck on your build! 🤙🏻

    Lol 11 years as a lexus tech and the first thing you do is rip the motor out! Rule 1 of modifications is that is will always be a lot more expensive than you thought.. The LS is probably lighter than the motor you took out?
