i also have one, love it every single day, more so on rainy days and corners, but agreed on wishing they came in manuals, but always good to learn your car and swap it yourself!
Great video! That noise sounds like it might be related to the factory alarm perhaps. As for upgrades how about motor mounts, transmission mount, subframe, and differential front and rear mount upgrades.
Needs some sturdy sway bars and strut braces. Maybe also the rear brace kit for underneath. Engine could do with aftermarket engine management with a bit more boost dialled.
I have the same weird noise on my is 300 sportX and it’s coming from the front left wheel. It appeared when I lowered my car and changed disc breaks. I think it’s the brake shield that’s flexing into the disc break making that strange weird noise.
Can someone explain more about what thag bag of grease is for at 1:07 ? What happens if you let the car down without it? I mean, why would the ride height be inaccurate without it?
Do a Top mount single turbo conversion with all new suspension and bushings. Top it off with a new Squash dual fuel pump hanger and some new fuel rail with bigger injectors to upgrade the fuel system.
I'd like to see how you guys fix the dashboard and make the car all shiny. I think setup wise it's pretty good and you've done a great service to the car by taking out some of the ghettoness. It's good you tack-welded the cuts too in the previous video. Props for that. Definitely want to see the direction you take the car. It's too bad it's not CARB legal though. I think a lot of us with IS300s want a streetable car w/ decent power that we can take on track day but don't want to have to have a trailer queen that we can't even take to Azusa, Hwy 2, or any of the other Malibu runs. Also w/ the amount of miles, how's the chassis feel, and are you adding additional bracing to take out some of the flex or are the plans to tack weld the seams?
Love this series Odi. I own the exact car and was steered toward your videos by monster service the day ep1 dropped. So jealous of your build so far, looking forward to seeing more. Did you do second calipers for the hand brake or just tap into factory lines and block off input from the pedal?
Has the engine been swapped? The engine cover on this IS300 has really thrown me off. 5:54 It doesn’t match what’s in the first generation IS300 I’ve seen..
im sooooo fucking jealous lol in a good way to see the car i LIKE so much in a manual n boosted... I see u got altezza gita on the back door n lexus badge on the grill upfront... lol ..I got all wheel drive so can't drift sadly but would like to get a tune n some coil overs... @dougfellar..follow me to see my grocery getter
This video makes me love my Sportcross even more. Proud Owner
Why oh why didn't they ever make them in a manual though?! :(
i also have one, love it every single day, more so on rainy days and corners, but agreed on wishing they came in manuals, but always good to learn your car and swap it yourself!
Owner here as well!
Fellow sportscross owner here
IS300 ‼️. The most underrated performance car platform in America
highly underrated definitely not the most underrated performance platform in america.
TJ Williams very rated in the uk 😂
Toyota4Life lol same comment from another vid
highly underrated by those who don't know what Toyota Altezza is
It really is shocking how few people understand the possibilities that hide in these cars!
the sportcross looks so sick with the monster service wide-body! keep up these awesome videos
I really think this is dope I was planning on buying my first car and it’s cool to see what a little bit of hard work and good friends can make
Goes a long way brotha👍
That noise may be a purge valve in the charcoal canister above the rear differential
Super sick build so far, keep the videos coming. I would say do all new bushings
That weird noise would drive me insane. Good luck fellas and keep the content coming!
Great video! That noise sounds like it might be related to the factory alarm perhaps. As for upgrades how about motor mounts, transmission mount, subframe, and differential front and rear mount upgrades.
Man I wish I can wrench with u guys. I feel I could learn so much !

This is such a SWEET and RARE IS300 model!
Dope harmonica solo
These vids are awesome! Super fun to watch and coincidentally helping me get a better understanding of the vehicle!

NOT really a fan of the Gita/Sportcross but this is really nice, I like what you guys did with it
Cool car, I'd rock it even with that driftz wheels.
You gotta put another set of race bucket seats in the back
Can someone explain more about what thag bag of grease is for at 1:07 ? What happens if you let the car down without it? I mean, why would the ride height be inaccurate without it?
get an 03 sport design grill! maybe some ganadors, fix that led for the rear plate, 4 bucket seats would be awesome... I have an IS too!

Love it! Dont stop with the mods.
What kind of wheels??
which model?
New headlights, and another 100 hp!
I’m in love with this car!
That car looks so good!!
So did you figure out what the weird noise was? I don't think you told us.
A bag with grease in it, because professional. Whaaaaat? That lets the tyre slip out like it would with pressure yeah?
I wish there was more parts for the is300 I'm currently building one and having trouble trying to find parts
Why would you swap the engine? I thought those things came with a 2jz originally?
so what was the noise ?
What kind of tint did it have ?
how have I never seen an is300 wagon? I need one
Looks sick, I got the same kit
Gives me inspiration for my sport cross awesome looking machine 😛
Hey Guys, what happend to this Sportcross?
Is it still around?
Did you crash it?
Please make an Update!
Regards from a Crossy owner ;-)
sameeee hey wago friend
Bucket seats in rear for passengers
You guys figure out what the noise was?
Where can I find some wheels like that
Air cup so I can run lower static setup
But still car raise it back to to use the car
Love this series Odi. I own the exact car and was steered toward your videos by monster service the day ep1 dropped. So jealous of your build so far, looking forward to seeing more. Did you do second calipers for the hand brake or just tap into factory lines and block off input from the pedal?
What kind of widebody kit does it have on it.
no more updates?
Is this na or gte? Sounds great!
Angle kit ?
Has the engine been swapped?
The engine cover on this IS300 has really thrown me off. 5:54
It doesn’t match what’s in the first generation IS300 I’ve seen..
its been swapped at some point with a 1jz rather than the factory 2jz
Where r u guy located?
Is it auto gearbox?
Body kit??
Does anybody know the name of the shift knob they have ?
Whoa found another untreated channel
Sweet ass car, even with all those NRG parts:|

Do you have to change Or redo the motor mounts when you do A 2jz swap on the IS300
