Yeah, the build of the is430 was documented on an episode of Rides several years ago. Def. A sweet concept. I used to have a 99 GS400 and miss the power and tourqe nearly every day. I vote for doing the swap... but just know its gonna be tough and your daily driver may be out of commission for a while if you or a bud are not proporly equipt with tools parts and techniques.

Yeah the link to the vid is floating around on here and on my.is, pops up ever once in a while.
If someone hasn't seen it just do a search for it, shouldn't be too hard just do search for IS430
