1992 Lexus SC300. 1992 1JZGTE soarer engine swap.
I personally built this car (and many more throughout the years) starting back in 2005. Built for the utmost reliability in any condition. Never raced legally or illegally. In the last few years my interests have moved on to other things and unfortunately the car has spent most of the last 5 years sitting in a carport. Built using the best parts available, no chinese rip offs!! The goal of the build was pump gas performance. I don't care what it could do on race gas. It's too fast for me and I keep boost at wastegate (10psi), but on a good 93 octane tune it dynos just over 500whp at 18psi.
Never crashed, wrecked, or salvaged title. Wasn't a "shell" or anything shady. Squeaky clean carfax. I purchased the stock car originally from Raz at IMV films to fund their famous "Vehicular Lunatics" film. I am the 3rd owner the car was originally purchased in south Florida, I have that paperwork in the glove box.
Chassis:
-Imported late 90's SSR Varden Sport Schwartz 3 piece forged rims. Ultra rare period correct rims.
-Koni Yellow shocks
-Factory MKIV TT springs to retain some level of comfort and the ability to drive over speedbumps. Lowered nearly 2in from stock height.
-Cusco Strut tower brace
-LS400 front brake calipers, EBC rotors/pads
-Factory rear brakes to fit 15" Weld racing rims if I ever did want to race it
-Battery relocated to the trunk (Recently new AGM cell)
-New front tires, rear tires 40% but I have matching extras ready to go when these wear out!
Engine:
-Precision PT 74 GTS turbo
-Precision intercooler
-Turbonetics blow off valve
-Tial 44mm wastegate
-Custom made ($1200) equal length 1JZ manifold. Ported and polished. Ceramic coated inside and out.
-550cc low resistance side feed injectors (wire harness modified for low resistance injectors with MKIII Supra resistor)
-2JZGTE headgasket for upgraded rear cylinder cooling
-Twin turbo water passages TIG welded shut to avoid leaks when twins were removed for single
-Custom ordered SARD re-flashed ECU with no speed/boost limiations and custom fuel/ignition map for the single turbo. SAFC2 for fine tuning when boost changes are made. Insanely reliable setup. 18mpg city/25+ highway. Something you can't do with a AEM!
-Griffith MKIV aluminum radiator
-Greddy catch can
-TTE Performance custom spark plug cover
Driveline:
-Automatic Transmission Factory Stage III a340e automatic transmission. Capable of taking the abuse of 8 second 1/4mi passes for years. Bulletproof. Best transmission money can buy. Less than 2 years old and maybe 500 miles on it.
-2500 stall converter
-Factory Torsen LSD
-Two transmission coolers, front mount and radiator mount.
-Factory driveshaft to serve as "weak link" so you don't break axles or rear ends. It has and will twist a driveshaft like a pretzel.
Interior:
-Factory grey interior
-1997 MKIV Black leather front seats
-Toyota Soarer steering wheel
-Sony CDX-GT700HD stereo (hd, ipod, etc)
-3M 15% black tint
Body:
-Repainted in 2009 factory color with DuPont Base/Clear
-1997 front bumper
-Wise "whale tale" rear spoiler (not installed)
-JDM folding mirrors
-JDM side markers
I'm sure there's a lot more I forgot.
The Bad:
Car sat for years, took it's toll on some things. The A/C kinda gets cold but needs a re-charge I will probably do that this weekend. Something in the sunroof motor broke, it's manual control now. It was parked with the rear facing south in a carport so the rear trunk/bumper clear coat is faded even though it was repainted with DuPont 5 years ago. A good buff will bring back the car nearly perfect but the rear trunk/bumper will need repainting. The interior is typical of a car that sat for a few years, needs a good detail. Rear seats could be recovered (typical sc300 issue). I never installed the cruise control cable, but if you can find a MKIV TT one it will work. I drive the car weekly now to get some use on it and it runs perfect aside from those things. Years ago you could eat off this car back when I was in the "car scene". It's been to many car shows. It's famously known as the "Two Jay Z with Nas" meme car. I'm sure you've seen that image.

BMW M4 vs. Lexus RC F in Head 2 Head sports coupe showdown
Wed, 29 Oct 2014It's the showdown everyone's been looking forward to, the East versus West grudge match of the year. We're talking, of course, about the BMW M4 versus the Lexus RC F.
Although BMW uses a twin-turbo straight-six and the Lexus uses a free-breathing V8, the two are pretty closely matched on paper: a luxury coupe with over 400 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels.
The BMW has been doing these cars for longer, and the M4 boasts a higher power-to-weight ratio. But then the RC F has more power - and without forced induction to break up the rev range. So which is the better luxury muscle coupe? Watch the latest episode of Motor Trend Head 2 Head to find out.
Chevy Camaro ZL1, Lexus LFA celebrate National Donut Day
Fri, 07 Jun 2013Happy National Donut Day, everyone! While some of us may have already celebrated this high-caloric holiday at our local Dunkin' Donuts or Tim Horton's, Chevrolet and Lexus have taken the opportunity to offer us delicious donuts of a different sort. Using a "professional donut maker" and a 2013 Camaro ZL1, Chevy has released a video of its 580-horsepower coupe laying down some serious rubber. Lexus has countered with its LFA supercar and, oddly, LPGA pro golfer Natalie Gulbis.
Just like many of the donut chains across the country, Chevy and Lexus are giving away these donuts for free. Not only do their donuts contain zero fat, they're also easily enjoyable over the Internet, albeit nowhere near as tasty as a Krispy Kreme. Scroll down to enjoy both videos.
Lexus GX, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado facelifts leaked
Thu, 22 Aug 2013The Lexus GX and the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, which isn't sold in the US, have gone without visual updates since the current generation was launched in 2009. But what appear to be patent filing sketches and pictures of the sibling sports utility vehicles' mid-cycle updates have been leaked on a Russian Land Cruiser Club forum.
Major changes to the GX's front end will be made to incorporate Lexus' signature grille. Gone are the awkwardly shaped headlamps and the soft-looking triple-slat grille. The sketch shows the Lexus with a new bumper, lower-profile headlights and a more aggressive, angular grille with one more slat and a gaping lower air-intake opening. The vehicle's profile looks unchanged, but the rear bumper will be reshaped slightly to fit new, better-integrated horizontal reflectors.
The Toyota gets a handful of styling updates as well, including a new front bumper with higher-profile headlamps that look a bit out of place to us. The Prado's profile also looks unchanged, but the rear end gets restyled taillights and a reshaped license-plate enclosure.
