Has anyone done the GSE21 swap in a 300 yet?

I'm obviously new to this site and was wondering if this swap has been done yet? My friend took me for a ride the other night in his is350 and it pulled hard. I'm not looking to do a 2jz or anything like that, I want something more suttle.

I've never seen it been done. People have swapped the V8 from the GS430. The only engine swap i would do in this car would be a GTE or LSx though...

I'm not familiar with those swaps. This is my first Lexus, so I'm new to the community. I come from a background of Honda's.

^very much agreed, you want subtle power go either with the 2JZ-GTe swap from the Aristo/Supra or the v8 from the GS.

I am personally doing the GTE swap.
