GS400 engine swap into a GS300
Yea what's this "delay" you guys are talking about and if there is such thing can you post some concreate evidence or factual dealer changes that caused such a thing? If there is Id imagine it wouldn't be a big deal to swap whatever may be causing such. A thing, for it couldn't be anything very significant.... Could be something as stupid as a change in the way a vaccum line runs... (JUuuust an example lol) but nice ride man!!! Great choice on the swap, wish you could post some clearer pics maybe a bit more up close! Front bumper looks sweet I can't tell but is it a lip on it? Or a whole new bumper? Ditch that rear wing for sure and your car looks great!
Even that front grill is great looking man, it almost looks like it resembles a stock IS grill in a way but chrome, can we see it up close if you get a chance? Looks real good man. And what's up are your wheels aluminum faced? Or what's there finish? Can they be polished up?
I will post some more pictures later. The front bumper is a knock off TTE lip fully molded in. Didn't want to deal with fiberglass on the front bumper. The rest of the kit is Admiration kit. The back is fully molded in also. I got the grille on ebay. I didn't look as nice on my white GS 300. Some people on here told me it looked ghetto, but I'm not really into the painted grilles. Lol at the rear spoiler, I know most people don't like the xplosion wing. I like it though. I had the RMM on my white car I loved that wing to, but to each their own.

The wheels are Matted Sliver Machined Face. They are made by Vertini. I have never owned or driven a 01 GS 430, so I was just speaking from what I saw written on CL about some sort of delay when the car accelerates compared to the GS 400's

Clear third brake with Lexus sticker. I had to use it because the bulbs wouldn't all light up in the high mount third brake light. I had the oem wing with third brake light, so I think that is why it didn't work.
