Default WTB: 98-01 Lexus Gs300

Looking to pick up a 98-01 Lexus GS300 to do a aristo vvti swap. It can have a blown motor or trans or just be a roller. I would like something with reasonable mileage. Let me know what you have.

replied to your ping. just wanted to put the details up for you here as well.

Price depends on whether you want the extra set of rims with winter tires on. The winter tires are Michelin Aplinas and have only been used for 4 winter seasons and might have about 3 thousand miles on them. So, they are pretty much new.

If you want the additional set of wheels w/winter tires then I'm asking for $5,600. If not then $5,100. There are also a whole bunch of spare parts I can throw in if you would like. The car is located in Brooklyn, NY.

The car has the below upgrades/maintenance items done as well:
1. New Bilstein HD Shocks, which were installed 15k miles ago.
2. Daizen Sway Bars front and back
3. Daizen steering rack bushings
4. New brake discs all around about 3k miles ago
5. New charcoal canister about 5k miles ago; so this problem which is common for the GS300 will not be an issue for you for the rest of the car's life
6. Timing belt, water pump, and spark plugs done at 90k miles
7. Thermostat replaced as a precaution at around 90k miles
8. Replaced all the bulbs in the climate control and radio that can be pulled out. I have one bulb out on the LCD display for the radio that needs to be un-sodered and replaced.
9. New gas cap for preventative maintenance
10. Lower control arms, ball joints, end links were replaced when sway bars were swapped
11. All O2 sensors have been replaced within the last 2 years.
12. I installed the trunk cargo net as well as a custom trunk floor net so you can secure items to the trunk floor.
13. The trunk also has the Lexus first aid kit.
14. Upgraded to the 2001+ chrome grill.

I am looking to do the swap myself. Much cheaper that way and I like doing the work. I can build a 2jzgte vvti for 1/2 the price of your car. Of course it all depends on how cheap I can find a gs300.
