*Gizz* Im a huge fan of turbo'd IS300's. I've contiplated building one next after the Evo's are done.

If I had that car, Id remove the decals, toss some race lightened CCW classics on, and take that T51R off for a 74mm or GT4276R if I was keeping it a 3.0 (T6 GT45 or GT47 if I went 3.4L), and get a Getrag 6spd in there. Pretty sick car as is though.

First thing I would do is change the taillights. I realize this is the car that pretty much started it all, but that is really what now looks the most nasty on the car, IMO.

sorry, but i think its pretty ugly. (with or without the HK$ stickers)

Why not just get the more capable Supra MKIV as a starting chassis?

Agreed, although Im seeing more and more IS300's popping up turbo'd. Kinda cool that you can have a 2JZ, 4 door, VVT-I equipped car. Only way you're getting VVT-I in a Supra is a JDM '99 I believe. Good luck finding (let alone affording) that.
