Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Goodspeed - 07-15-2015
Quote:Hey guys, the time has finally come to part ways with this car. I get questions and numerous emails all the time asking about the car and how the swap was done. If you ask anyone who has done research or put any thought into doing an engine swap to an IS250, they will tell you just how hard and complicated something like this is to complete. This project required extensive fabrication and wiring far beyond anything most people could imagine. It is the only 2nd gen IS250 in the United States with this motor swap (from what I know). Out of all (which is very few I believe) of the engine swaps done on the Lexus IS platform, I believe this car retains the most OEM functionality.
The car was built by Lance Ho Lung from Toyomoto and took almost three years to complete. As many of you know already, Lance is my father. Being that the car is still in the family, no one else has ever worked on or tampered with this car but myself or my father. I believe this is also partly the reason why nobody else has replicated the engine swap yet. Features such as the factory smart-key FOB system, A/C, power windows, and the digital read out display within the factory gauge cluster all work on this car. This car also still retains the original Electronic Power Steering and uses Drive-by-Wire. Working features also include the paddle shifters, and cruise control as well. The only thing that does not function is VSC (vehicle stability control).
This is a one owner car. Upon completion in December of 2010, my mother was driving the car daily until mid-2013. When finished, it made 494HP at the rear wheels on the dyno with a Precision 6765 turbo. In 2014, the turbo finally went out and was replaced with a Precision 6768 which is slightly bigger, but more importantly, is a much more reliable turbo. On the dyno it ended up making 505HP and 460TQ on 93 octane pump gas. Since I took over driving the car, it currently sits at home in the garage and is driven a couple times a month either by either myself or my dad. In the past year and half, I have put on wheels, coilover suspension, upgraded the brakes, among other stuff just to make the car stand out and look special. This is a special car to me and I really hope it goes to a good home and continues to be well taken care of.
Here is a list of the main upgrades the car has:
Complete 2JZGTE VVT-I Aristo V300 Engine and Transmission Swap
AEM Series 2 Standalone ECU
Precision 6768 Turbo

Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - WRXtranceformed - 07-15-2015
Man haha such a ton of work and money put into such a meh car. Why would I pay $36k for that when I could spend the same money on an IS-F and have it be a million times more reliable, actually have stability control and be plenty fast?
I appreciate the effort that went into the swap but man I just can't see the reason you would do that

Goodspeed Wrote:Oh right....the....IS-F.........Haha yeah I mean don't get me wrong I like 2 Jay-Z with NAS swaps as much as the next guy but that car looks exactly like my mom's old IS250 and functions worse. Now on the other hand, that swap makes a lot more sense in the IS300 (and is probably a lot cheaper and easier to accomplish, and the car looks better).
(forgot that was a thing)
Take the other $3k and toss it into a supercharger or something if you need it to be faster. It's even get dem two tone seats son:

The grumpy old man in me hates that mustang.....classic cars should make the proper noises, a 2J does not fit that requirement.

Coyote motor makes all the right noises and no dealing with ancient 90s turbo crap.

2500 seems like a filthy bargain for what is probably pretty rare spec and rust free.
i remember looking at Metric Mechanic's site one time and saw they did built 4 cylinders. sounded pretty evil. neat to see someone try to tune a less loved engine.

Someone out in SF is selling an Enzo for <$20k.
