Amazing work!! I love the 1st gen IS, I've driven it many times (even on a 1900 mile trip) and it just as you described, great car, all it needs is some *****.

great build sir, you have a great talent that i envy!

crazy build! all i have to say is wow.. and props to the dedication and all the hard work you put into this build..

Nice job Matt. I still like your old 700 hp MR2 better haha

Great build and again a total sleeper, very nice!

Thank you everyone! I've been working on building a kit for production to allow anyone wanting to swap an ls1 into the is300 a simple task. Please dont post in the thread asking me how much either.

Matt

That has got to be on the top3 sickest builds ever! I can't believe how fast you did that OMG

crazy build my friend , I love it

nice build

how much did the motor did cost you?

$3300 for the whole swap. If your cheap you can find higher mileage motors in the older Camaros and T/A's for less. It really just depends on what you can find so go look.

Matt

This is insane for how quick you pulled this off

Want to come to Chicago and help me out

that is a sick transplant, just the sounds alone u can hear what it can do..

Very nicely done.

wow real nice!! I just wish I could do something like that man!! And that sound is music to my ears!!!!
