1992 Lexus SC300. 1992 1JZGTE soarer engine swap.
I personally built this car (and many more throughout the years) starting back in 2005. Built for the utmost reliability in any condition. Never raced legally or illegally. In the last few years my interests have moved on to other things and unfortunately the car has spent most of the last 5 years sitting in a carport. Built using the best parts available, no chinese rip offs!! The goal of the build was pump gas performance. I don't care what it could do on race gas. It's too fast for me and I keep boost at wastegate (10psi), but on a good 93 octane tune it dynos just over 500whp at 18psi.
Never crashed, wrecked, or salvaged title. Wasn't a "shell" or anything shady. Squeaky clean carfax. I purchased the stock car originally from Raz at IMV films to fund their famous "Vehicular Lunatics" film. I am the 3rd owner the car was originally purchased in south Florida, I have that paperwork in the glove box.
Chassis:
-Imported late 90's SSR Varden Sport Schwartz 3 piece forged rims. Ultra rare period correct rims.
-Koni Yellow shocks
-Factory MKIV TT springs to retain some level of comfort and the ability to drive over speedbumps. Lowered nearly 2in from stock height.
-Cusco Strut tower brace
-LS400 front brake calipers, EBC rotors/pads
-Factory rear brakes to fit 15" Weld racing rims if I ever did want to race it
-Battery relocated to the trunk (Recently new AGM cell)
-New front tires, rear tires 40% but I have matching extras ready to go when these wear out!
Engine:
-Precision PT 74 GTS turbo
-Precision intercooler
-Turbonetics blow off valve
-Tial 44mm wastegate
-Custom made ($1200) equal length 1JZ manifold. Ported and polished. Ceramic coated inside and out.
-550cc low resistance side feed injectors (wire harness modified for low resistance injectors with MKIII Supra resistor)
-2JZGTE headgasket for upgraded rear cylinder cooling
-Twin turbo water passages TIG welded shut to avoid leaks when twins were removed for single
-Custom ordered SARD re-flashed ECU with no speed/boost limiations and custom fuel/ignition map for the single turbo. SAFC2 for fine tuning when boost changes are made. Insanely reliable setup. 18mpg city/25+ highway. Something you can't do with a AEM!
-Griffith MKIV aluminum radiator
-Greddy catch can
-TTE Performance custom spark plug cover
Driveline:
-Automatic Transmission Factory Stage III a340e automatic transmission. Capable of taking the abuse of 8 second 1/4mi passes for years. Bulletproof. Best transmission money can buy. Less than 2 years old and maybe 500 miles on it.
-2500 stall converter
-Factory Torsen LSD
-Two transmission coolers, front mount and radiator mount.
-Factory driveshaft to serve as "weak link" so you don't break axles or rear ends. It has and will twist a driveshaft like a pretzel.
Interior:
-Factory grey interior
-1997 MKIV Black leather front seats
-Toyota Soarer steering wheel
-Sony CDX-GT700HD stereo (hd, ipod, etc)
-3M 15% black tint
Body:
-Repainted in 2009 factory color with DuPont Base/Clear
-1997 front bumper
-Wise "whale tale" rear spoiler (not installed)
-JDM folding mirrors
-JDM side markers
I'm sure there's a lot more I forgot.
The Bad:
Car sat for years, took it's toll on some things. The A/C kinda gets cold but needs a re-charge I will probably do that this weekend. Something in the sunroof motor broke, it's manual control now. It was parked with the rear facing south in a carport so the rear trunk/bumper clear coat is faded even though it was repainted with DuPont 5 years ago. A good buff will bring back the car nearly perfect but the rear trunk/bumper will need repainting. The interior is typical of a car that sat for a few years, needs a good detail. Rear seats could be recovered (typical sc300 issue). I never installed the cruise control cable, but if you can find a MKIV TT one it will work. I drive the car weekly now to get some use on it and it runs perfect aside from those things. Years ago you could eat off this car back when I was in the "car scene". It's been to many car shows. It's famously known as the "Two Jay Z with Nas" meme car. I'm sure you've seen that image.

Lexus gives Jay Leno a shot at driving its 2014 IS
Mon, 10 Dec 2012After we drove a prototype of the 2014 Lexus IS, we were told that Lexus was shipping it back to Japan. As it turns out, late-night funnyman Jay Leno was already in the motherland with the coming sport sedan, and he lapped it around Fuji Motor Speedway with Chief Engineer Junichi Furuyama.
This was probably during his LFA drive two months ago, actually, when Furuyama-san was even more tight-lipped about the IS than he was a week ago, so Leno has to make the best guesses he can. Leno goes over the whole car, then takes it out for a casual spin, so at least you get to see it in action. As for Jay's take, you'll just have to watch the video below to find out.
Toyota recalling 1.67 million vehicles worldwide in 3 campaigns
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Toyota is issuing three separate recalls covering 1.67 million vehicles worldwide with most of those models in Japan. It looks like the campaigns' impact on the US may be smaller, though. According to Reuters, Toyota isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or fatalities affecting the models. Some yet-unnamed Lexus models might also be affected.
The largest of the campaigns does not currently affect any US-market vehicles. About 802,000 units of the Toyota Crown Majesta, Crown, Noah and Voxy in Japan are being repaired to replace a seal that could leak in the brake master cylinder. Those already leaking get a new brake booster, as well, according to Reuters.
The only recall currently believed to affect the US is due to a problem covering approximately 759,000 vehicles with 423,000 of them here. The repair is to fix a faulty fuel delivery pipe that could cause a fire if the fuel leaks out. Unfortunately, we don't know which models it covers. Autoblog spoke to Toyota spokesperson Mona Richard and was told the information was still "under embargo." When exactly that embargo will lift isn't yet known, but we're on the case.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
