Default Cory's 5spd GGP IS300

December 2013 I purchased my 2003 GGP 5spd IS300 completely stock from CA with 88k mi. I've always wanted a 5spd IS3 & always had some plans on a certain type of build I wanted to achieve. Within the coming months, I had a nice list of purchased aftermarket parts. As of now, these are the parts I have on my Lexus.

- D2 RS coils
- 18x9.5 +23 Bronze MB battles
- Hankook Ventus V4 215/35 (front)
- Federal ss595s 225/40 (rear)
- Custom 3" stainless steel catback w/ Flowmaster muffler. 4" tip
- Godspeed Black Chrome lug nuts
- TRD 4" Carbon Antenna
- ViS Racing V-Spec front lip
- ViS Racing Techno R Carbon Fiber roof spoiler
- ViS Racing V-Speed side skirts
- ViS Racing Techno R rear lip
- Jimmy Up 150mm Coffee Black shift ****
- Black Altezza grille
- Kenwood head-unit
- Bride VIOS III Low Max Seats
- Anzo black chrome headlights







For 2015 I have plans to change up a few things. Gonna change the sneakz to Forgestar Deep Concave F14's. 18x9.5 +26 225/40 front & 18x10 +30 245/35 rear. Also planning for boost in the near future.



Thanks for checking out my build. I will post more pictures when I get more things done to the car. You can also check me out on Instagram @swartzymc Thanks!

thanks man! I love the GGP, great color with a lot of metallic pearl. GGP was actually my 3rd choice, between the Auburn Sky Pearl, and the white pearl. I just couldn't get too picky trying to find my color choices in 5spd's.

This weekend I welded up my new Pypes 3" x 9" polished stainless steel blast pipe style tip. I wanted to get rid of the sunken look my 4" x 6" tip had with my aftermarket rear lip.

Looks nice, you should be able to keep this car for years to come and nobody will guess the year! =D

I really like the shiny graphite style you are going for, it looks real clean!

Got together with a good friend last weekend and got some quality shots of the new set-up since the weather has finally been cooperating here in PA.
ViS Vertex front bumper to come, along with boost.
