The Lexus IS300 is a fantastic car. Even though American got the short end with the naturally aspirated 2JZ-GE - it didn't mean all was lost for the four door. Evan Shanks and his IS300 prove that with some serious patience and skill you can make the USDM Lexus IS300 a four door Toyota for the Street. So how does a Big Turbo Lexus IS300 drive? Let's talk about it.

@@irianamora9354 I hear ya, mine has 73k on it. I bought the car 14 yrs ago with just shy of 50k. I was looking at that t56 swap in particular, how close does the shifter land compared to stock location? Did you keep the stock 3.73 rear gear? And the t56 you got, is the gearing similar to the stock w55? Was it a direct swap or a lot cutting, banging,, and fanagling?

@obscurevisuals Год назад

the ge vvti has little dinky rods it will not hold too long unless its very well tuned on low boost or ethanol. the non vvti blocks are the ones who mostly share all the parts except the turbo blocks have oil squirters. on the other hands vvti heads flow way better. so the ideal setup for NAT is a non vvti block with a vvti head.

I have a 2002 IS300 and i love it, except that its an auto. Im gonna put a CD009 or R154, does anyone have any tips to make it fit in the transmission tunnel and the shifter fit into the stock shifter hole? Also at 4:00 the VVTi GE engines have much thinner con rods and weaker ringlands. Stock GE bottom end can hold ~350-380hp depending on condition of engine and tune. However the non VVTi bottom end can hold 500-550hp because it has much stronger rods than the VVTi

I think you'd like my is300 a little bit more, more drivable, it's not slammed that hard.. it's on tein super streets at the right recommended tein ride height.. Mines a na-t vvti what came withthe car, I was running the stock 10.5:1 pistons for a while on 93 with vp octanium. Eagle rods, arp head and main studs, 20psi, no problems... I've got the w55 no problems yet either but I know it's coming... Mines on a microsquirt with the stock ecu for all the other fun stuff I still need. New pistons should be here in a few weeks, I have a biggins gt45 I'm trying for ish and giggles then, and im currently building the surge tank for it. Hopefully by the end of May I'll be able to rip it. Trust me I'll try n bother you to drive it

@@imnota it's not installed yet, it's a ish and giggles turbo. Just curious where everything will cap out at. I'm mainly talking about suspension not being slammed and where the power is right now, not where I'm going with it. I currently have a precision 62-62 on it now so basically anything over 55-5800 falls off and gets kinda choked out. It's crazy responsive tho, 80 mm throttle body, modified port matched "greddy"style forward facing intake manifold, it's instant power. Boost controller hits 15-20psi by 3000 and holds until 5500ish...

I would link the videos here but I hardly doubt anyone would understand the language. We got a guy in my country, in europe a rather well known engine builder, (by now he only take jobs that he likes and are challenges for him) guy is a fucking wizard with the 2jz (900-1200 whp on pumpgas kind of wizard). And so he held a lecture at an engineering university explaining how the 2J is the undistractable piece of Japanese engineering that it is, and he elaborated in high detail that, for most applications it doesn't matter to the slightest whether you got a GE or a GTE and where it starts to matter the GE block is even better cause it has less failure points in the oil system.
