This is a ZERO mile motor. Not a rebuild. Brand new on crate from Lexus.

I am sure many people on here can vouch for me.

they are the same motor, internally is the only difference on the Gs400 1uzfe and the Gs430 3uzfe

welcome

heres a few more comparisons

http://www.lextreme.com/3uzpiston.html
http://www.lextreme.com/mainbolts.html
http://www.lextreme.com/rods.html

really seems like for a FI motor the Gs400 is the way to go but NA the GS430 is the better motor

anyways far enough off topic, OP GLWS

EDIT: one of the best reads for the differences/added features from the GS400 to the GS430

Although it looks like he was comparing non-VVTi 1UZ pistons to 3UZ pistons.
