UPDATE after so LONG. but nothing too serious...

LEDS tails installed, ALl my turbo goodies in the trunk, with chrome door handles and sitting on BC racing coilovers., And S2000 retro fitted headlights






Pulling the motor, Since i took the motor out of my brown car we took the motor out of this aristo. And what i have now is a 2nd project that needs to be done before i can start on the aristo again lol. So i said **** it.. i bought an IS300 and we are putting the aristo motor in it. Its getting a OEM LSD, with FMIC, manual boost control, boost gauge, trans cooler, Q45 projector retro fit , and 3" straight piped exhaust AND THAT IS IT. So i can daily drive it and boost it to maybe 17PSI if i can.





I do have some lowenhart BS5 supercrystals that will be rebarreled to wider 19s or steplip 20s


and the GT42 is still for sale if anyone wants it... ITs in really good condition and low mileage and ready to ship out


stay tuned guys. Again slow build but it will be done right!

Thanks guys! Right now the motor out of the aristo is getting serviced and preprd to go into the is300 everything is on except my builder can't get the crank pulley bolt off! So gets Gona try and heat the bolt up and see if he can break it loose. After that's done he will be ready to drop the motor in and start wiring the motor up and get me measurements for my one piece driveshaft. And start installing my boost control and gage.

On the motor for the aristo I'm having my Titan 2 too trans bolted up. Does anyone know how that can be wired up? Because that trans it's a aristo tranny it's a supra trans! Can anyone help? I know my builder can figure it out but I just want to throw some extra knowledge his way!

Thanks again!
