Default FS: Fully Built 2800RPM Stall Torque Converter

I'm going with another torque converter setup AGAIN(4000rpm stall this time). So my loss is your gain. This torque converter is built to the hilt. All fins are welded and furnish brazed. Turbine and stator have been cryo treated. Factory lockup clutch lining has been removed and replaced with high performance clutch material. Also has fluid drain plug machined into the housing.

This torque converter will handle pretty much anything you can throw at it. Much stronger than the Lextreme design. I've had both cut apart sitting next to each other to compare. I paid $500 to have all that work done in this torque converter, and that's not including the TC itself. It has only been used for about 2-3k miles or so. My GS is just a weekend car so it doesn't see too many miles.

Selling for $400 shipped.

For sure I know that it will work with a 98-05 GS300 and 01-05 IS300. I'm checking to see what other cars it will fit.

Factory stall is 2250 +- 150rpm. This stall at 2800 rpm would be considered a mild upgrade, so for the average street car out there this stall would work just fine so don't be afraid of it guys

It won't work Moe, since this TC is for the A650E auto tranny and the said Aristo auto tranny is probably a 4 speed, such as A340E. According to my research, a A340E TC may not fit other A340E transmissions from cars of different years and/or different models.
Feel free to chime in if anyone can offer a different opinion. thx

Is this still for sale?

I've got a fairly stock street IS300 with an auto tranny, leaking rear main seal, so looking to drop trans anyways, and possibly put into a new torque converter. Would this mate up and everything fit fine?
