You got a build list because im trying to decide a build like this for my sleeper is300 or like a 1000hp full build. I have my full build list at like $15000aud but i might go small for now while i work on my ralley car
Nice IS300! That’s great you’ve kept the paint and everything in good condition. So many of the IS’s out there have been neglected over the years. I’m an original owner and have two of them with low miles 12,000/34,000 miles. Check them out on my channel.

I don’t at the moment bro but if you want to subscribe I was literally gonna make a video about what to look for when buying an is300 lol today. I’ve been into these cars since 2017 so I’m pretty knowledgeable imo. But if you have any questions feel free to ask!
Just a generic eBay one welded to the stock runners. I messed up and didn’t cut the stock runners so you were only able to fit a credit card between the intake and shock tower. Definitely cut the runners a lil or you will have to delete the AC and have almost no room in your engine bay.
CD00A. I was running the stock A650E for a little bit at 400hp and it was fine, just couldn’t use the e-shift because I have an aftermarket throttle body. It should hold up fine I would say for awhile as long as you don’t constantly dog the car lol
I’m pretty sure they only have just the pump listed on the website. I bought this thru Supra store. But you can call PHR and they can make you the custom lines with the fittings attached.
Speaking on the ebay, and cx racing. Lots of those parts are fine. Intercooler/piping and the manifolds are good. Even the turbos are fine. Been running on my sc300 for 2 years now. Is it the "best"? No. But it works for the time being.
In my opinion not really, as long as you have a good tuner, and decent parts. On my old setup I was running a 1st Gen used Garrett G30 and made 380whp and 360wtq and it ripped still.
What kind of exhaust and did you straight pipe the driveshaft? Also does the gs300 diff! make a winnning noise? And are you running solid bushings in the rear subframe or is it all stock and total hp?
I have a custom 3” downpipe that goes to a 3” Greddy Revolution RS exhaust with a 4” muffler, 1 piece steel 1350 driveshaft, solid diff bushings that come with the figs gs400 diff swap that you have to weld in. And the diff is pretty quiet besides going around corners with the OS Giken 1.5way LSD. I plan on upgrading to all Serial Nine arms and solid bushings soon; I have kfd arms with poly bushings for now. And it makes 490whp on 93 pump gas
@ThatSlowWagon reason I ask is because I had my whole subframe taken out and installed a powder coated subframe with serial nine bushings on rear subframe with diff delrin solid bushings too on my non lsd diff and it's makeing a kind of winning noise so gotta get it figured out! Wondering when I get the lsd if this would go away or if by adding a one driveshaft it would reslove the winning noise as well! Even exchanged the diff fluid in this whole process so dont know if the fluid exchange caused this or the solid bushings with non lsd diff or just the diff bushings with my stock driveshaft! Or if the fact I don't have solid bushings in the front yet! The rear is pretty stiff and solid , but again there's this noise that wasn't there before so kinda bitter sweet wondering what to do here! Going to be reaching out to serialnine for advice or possibly solution here but yeah lmk what you think!? Or would go about it.. finally the driveshaft that I was interested in is from the driveshaft shop so just gotta get directed in the right direction..
@@anthonyboria5738 Nice there you go that’s what I plan on doing soon too full solid bushings with a powder coated subframe. In my opinion that does sound like a driveshaft problem since you are still using the stock 2 piece driveshaft. Maybe the combination between the new diff, and solid bushings is putting more stress on the stock driveshaft. I rarely hear a wine in my car only for a few seconds sometimes changing a gear. I would try calling serial nine like you said, they are very helpful and honest. Hope you figure it out! Let me know what it was when you do 👌🏽
@ThatSlowWagon yeah will do bro for sure! I'm gona trying calling this week to talk with Jake..ill I know is that I just installed the serial bushings and diff bushing kit I brought there website and had the car care nut installed them with the new powder coated subframe in dark chrome with all new lexus orginal parts still don't have solid bushings on the arms knuckle, sway, and lower control arms because they were brand new bushings there so I just threw it all together like that for now..to Rock until I get more 💰 to get those solid bushings later but the diff fluid I had them change at the same time and it's makeing that winning noise so you might be right on the driveshaft part I do know my guy amd said I need a new or should just replace the center suport bearing and he's does want me to get an lsd diff and change my exhaust so was going to try and get to that to see if it will make that go away! But ultimately I want to get all solid bushings on my front suspension changed out and see how that goes so thats coming next but kinda got to take all all the suspension components in the front get the old bushings out! Powder coated then get the new bushings installed and yup from there will see how I feel and if it's all worth it! But thanks for takeing the time to reply...I will lyk what I find out from Jake at serialnine...when I get a chance to talk with them ttyl...
Sheesh 2 resonators and it still drones huh. I have just the 1 Greddy resonator it came with and it drones pretty bad too. To be real, I think that’s just how this exhaust will be since it’s like a 4.5” muffler/tip. Maybe try selling it and looking into the Greddy SP. I had that on my NA car and it was a lot quieter and it still looks nice, more of a sleeper look.
Yeah stock internals for now, still trying to figure out the engine build etc. Lol yeah it sounds wild no one expects anything until you hear the wastegate open. I still have a resonator so it’s not obnoxious when driving/idling only when you get into boost lol. Yessir that’s the plan I already have a GoPro, chest mount, head mount etc on the way! Definitely gonna be making some great videos when the weather gets better for sure.
Not to speak for the man but if I had to guess, around $7k. Excluding a tune and labor lol. That's assuming he did all the work. A good tune is 1200-1500. Labor would be quite a bit as well. That JZ tax 🤪
