Big turbo BN Sports 2JZ-GTE swapped Teal is300

[MC.Understeer]

Feeler just to see if anyone has any interest in owning this is300 project that went over budget..

Was suppose to be a drift car but after my body/paint work bill doubled I decided to revamp my project to a show/cruiser weekend car. Really don't have much use to have the money I have invested in this car to just sit around and collect dust as I have a newer Lexus IS and a new drift car to build after what happen with this project..

Few mods

Exterior:

Mbn sports Altezza body kit
Pulled/flared fenders 25mm
One off custom paint job with Dupont materials
Custom tube/boxed lower core support to house a much taller mk4 supra radiator
Car was fully gutted and dismantled when the car was painted including the engine, interior and windows.

Even tho I keep tossing money into it I still am thinking about selling it. Would consider trades for something stock or modded+ cash or just cash. SERIOUS interest. Original 2002 5spd manual. Will talk details an answer any questions. Please don't waste my time I'm just seeing if anyone has seen the car or is just now interested enough to actually buy it. Everything from the paint, comp clutch and flywheel, engine, turbo, intercooler are all brand new with not even a half hour of run time. Running project car with real potential. Would sell without wheels, engine, whatever. I personally think the car is worth 15-18k depending on what state you want the car in. Wheels, carbon status seat ect..

2002 original black 5spd manual under 92K miles on chassis
2004 interior swap

over $4000 in new paint work, car has never seen the outside elements or even had its first car wash yet

mishimoto mk4 supra radiator that has a custom tube lower support because its wider than the is300 rad and taller

new tial 44mm wastegate that has never seen anything but idle
full 3" custom made stainless steel exhaust
Competition stage 2 clutch
Competition clutch light weight flywheel

car is a w55 trans right now, use to be r154 till I put it more into a show car mode once I decided to not drift the car. Also is now stock ecu and injectors, fuel pump. All this stuff can obviously be changed out. What im asking for the car is not even enough to buy a stock is300 and put a stock 2jzgte with stock twins in so I don't wanna hear about why its still stock ecu. This is a fresh project car but in running condition and able to drive. Obviously not hit boost. Reasons for selling. Building another drift car right now and wouldn't mind to have available cash. Obviously this car is not 100% finished and I am well aware of that. If it were we are talking a lot more money and a whole different playing field for what someone could afford.

Interior:
2004 swapped interior
93k miles
Have original gauge cluster also which is I think 89k and the car hasn't been drivin on the street since all of this work has been done.

I'm sure I forgot anything which I'm not worried about as this is a feeler to see if any cash offers get thrown out there or some trades. I'm not sure what I want exactly cash wise or trades but I'm also not going to respond to low ball offers or trades for something that's clearly not worth trading for lol

[Prove It]

15 to 18k is a steal. So much time and money into this car. I would honestly ask for more. This isn't a 240

[MC.Understeer]

WOULD ALSO BE WILLING TO REBUILD A STOCK NA IS300 LONG BLOCK

would put the car back to a new na 2jzge motor with all new parts, Rings, bearings, gaskets ect..

Would take 10k with a 2JZ-GE

Would need a non refundable deposit before I put a stock 2jzge back in

Does the hood close on this? Nice project for someone to take over! (Paint looks great)

[MC.Understeer]

What do you mean does the hood close? You realize the factory engine has a upper intake manifold that crosses over the valve covers right..?

Fair price. Free bump.

[Royal_T]

Damn good price..

[Syncade]

I was referring to the compressor housing of the turbo sticking above the plane of the hood.

You do realize you have the hood off of the car in every picture...?

[mobbin503]

do you still have your s13 or is it in pieces? Interested in trading both?

Ok? ...but the factory engine comes with the throttle body above the valve covers like in the pic I posted. When I made the turbo manifold I knew I had at least that much space plus the plastic engine cover. This is how you would run a turbo on the stock setup. There's tons of room.

Which s13 are you refering to? The gold s13 coupe with the rb25 I just parted out and am now jz swapping? Or other the other Pink one already jz swapped? But to answer your question im only looking to trade this car for something else I can resell easier than a car this modified. I'm looking for cash in the end otherwise id keep it and finish the project. I already have a newer is350 for a daily, just looking to get bought out of this project and spend the funds on building the new drift car i'm almost done with.

Appreciate the offer

[mobbin503]

Yeah haha well hopefully I can sell and pick this up then . Glws

[EngineX]

How reliable is the car now? Very clean swap.

[04srt21]

Can't hit Boost why??? Break in?

[Lorenzo89]

price for car without wheels?

[go4speeed]

Will trade you for an 1995 Evo 3 Brozillionaire. :)

[Prove It]

Can't hit Boost why??? Break in?

Probably the transmission

[04srt21]

It's that weak? Thought these bitches ran 400whp all day on any na-t setup

[Prove It]

W55 bru. Not w58. Plus he clearly says stock fuel pump and injectors as it is a show car now

[MC.Understeer]

I sold the engine and turbo setup.

Car will be back for sale once I install a rebuilt GE engine for a lower price.

And to answer the other questions. Car was never finish, engine didn't have any run time/break in time, was running stock ecu injectors. I ditched the show car bs as that was never the plan. Would still like it to be drivable so this is why im putting a rebuilt ge engine in and I can justify keeping it or at least made it more affordable to anyone interested in the car just because of how it looks.

My other projects are more important right now. Theis300 can sit in storage.
