FS/FT - 1992 SC300 1JZ Automatic
Price: Car is back up for sale - $3500 - see reason below.
Description: 1992 SC300 with a clean title, newly painted, custom black Konig 18's, and a new 1jz engine/tranny combo from JHOT, as well as a new driveshaft. This car is driven daily and it is completely reliable. I use Mobil 1 exclusively, and change it frequently. There are no leaks of any kind from the engine, transmission, PS pump, or radiator.
This swap was done at 227k miles, and the car currently has 276k miles on it with absolutely no issues. The rest of the car is well taken care of and the turbo's still pull very well. The air-conditioner is ice cold, and it has a brand new Pioneer Avic-F90BT DVD/Navigation unit in it. The car is lowered with Espelir ASD springs with new polyurethane bushings all around. All the bulbs and needles in the dash work perfectly.
The reason I want to sell it is to get an IS300. I am at a time where I need 4 doors more than two, and if there is someone that would like a turboed SC300, now is the time.

Car has slight front end damage now. The damage is minimal - the front bumper will need a '97 conversion (wink), and it will need a "new" hood. Inside, the highbeam will need to be moved back in place and replaced. No frame damage, no other damage at all. Impact was done at 2mph, lady just backed into me. Car is still driven daily, no issues with anything else.

Maybe, the only downside is that its going to have a salvage title now. The insurance company doesn't see the fact that this has a new drive-train, so they are totaling it. If you can live with that, then this car is going to make you very happy.

I know, someone better hurry up... the mileage is almost 278k now. 
I will be pulling the head unit before it sells. Amp and speaker will stay with the car. I will probably buy a stock head unit to put back in the car for you. Wheels go with the car. A new steering wheel/airbag will go with the car. A new power antenna will go with the car. The interior/engine will also be detailed before you get the car. Oil and transmission fluid will also be changed before you get the car.

Did swap myself, very straightforward. Timing belt and water pump were replaced at the swap. PS, and AC work great. I dont know what PW stands for, but I'm sure its fine too This car was for sale for $7000 prior to the accident, the only thing really wrong with the car now is the salvage title. It's going out for interior/engine detail tomorrow. Like I said, its a hell of a deal if you want a turn-key turbo car. I just want a 4 door, preferrably an IS300... i dont care how I get there.
