Teaser pic of my soon to be new ride

[AF1JZ]

Decided to put updated pics on this first post for anyone that is lazy like me.

Here is a teaser pic of the car that I'm buying from a friend in the next couple of days. I'm sure you guys will be able to figure it out. But, this is a factory image and I'll supply plenty of pics when I have keys in hand.

By the way, reason I'm getting it is because my alternator on my 1jz supra took a shit and it is my only car. So, I need a new DD so I can tinker with the Supra and actually be able to take my time and not rush since it my only car. Enjoy.

Keep it stock! You need something thats reliable, after all, lol....

1j it

I'm a 1J guy everyday and even I think that would not be the best thing to do.

Might as well leave the GE in there and turbo it. or put a 2J head on the GE block and go from there.

Just do what Rod Millen did and drop in a Lexus V8 in it...

yea yea i know :icon_bigg!! The same thought goes thru my head everytime I see a local 1j sc300. He bought it already swapped but makes you think why they fellow would swap out of a 2j... Boostlogic sells a nice turbo kit for the is300. Make sure it has lsd and try not to get the automatic it seems not to hold to well in the mid to high 400hp range

I've been debating getting an IS myself. Let me know how it works out for you and how you like it. I'm needing a different daily than the Supra.

 

[OneJoeZee]

I'd love to daily drive an IS300.

 

[GeneStarWindGSW]

Same here about DD as IS300 but they aren't cheap :\

 

[iwannadie]

I hate those clear style lights, dunno why they all just look cheap to me.

Awesome DD!!!!

More pics please!!!!!!!!

 

[AF1JZ]

Yes guys, it is an IS300. It is an 01' or 02' with 71000 miles on it. I'm getting it for $13000. It has a custom pearl white paint job with blue pearl, two 12'' subs and a big ol amp, flip out touch screen cd player with all the bells and whistle's.

It is the automatic one and I won't be doing anything to it except maybe some wheels. Like I said, I need something reliable. I have my Supra with the 1jz to have fun with. I'll hopefully pick it up from the guy tonight. I'll put up some pics asap.
