I like how you say whatever about JDM Altezza parts. I live in Japan and laugh when I here how much people pay for JDM parts off the Altezza. Literally nothing fancy about them. I can buy an Altezza here that drives fine, no wrecks, with only 100,000 km on it for less than 2000$. I have owned two now and they drive great but I wouldn’t pay that much for JDM parts. Junk yards here sell parts for cheap too
NZ here. The IS200 is much rarer than the Altezza. I personally own a really clean, low KM 1999 Altezza and it only cost me $3700 NZD (About $2500-ish USD). I was looking for an Altezza and the market is pretty saturated. IS200s on the other hand? Non-existant.
How do you not get pulled over for loud exhaust?! I only have a straight pipe catback and it’s hard to keep the car quiet accelerating... what state is this lol
Wait so you pulled out the engine and painted the bay and put the stock engine back in? Why not wait untill you swap it? Or are you not going to? Btw next time u need a grill hmu lol
Amir Abdullah I have a car seat in mine for my 5 year old. It should fit one without issue on the other side. it has the latch points on both sides. Get a car seat protector so you don’t ruin your leather. Lusso is the brand I’ve been using for one year now definitely recommend it.
260,850 on mine with cold air intake and exhaust. Change the oil with mobile 1 every 3-5k change ur timing belt and valve cover gaskets every 90-100k and ur good
Also loook up pooor man mods to fix that chirp noise you put a spring so it pulls the clutch a little bit in but not to the point were it rides the clutch/wears it down I’ve been daily it for a few months now and I’ve had no problems you just has to fuck with it until it pulls just the right amount down but it does fix it lmao
STBYE STI Yeah, my IS200 with the 1G-FE inline 6 is nearly as raspy as this one, I really don't like it. The raspyness all comes down to the header. I'm planning to get a custom equal length exhaust manifold fabricated for €1200, that should make it sound godly and smooth. :-)
I think the header and cold air intake can also make a difference I have the SRP exhaust which is basically 3in straight pipe on my car with original intake and header and it sounds AMAZING look up SRP Exhaust IS300 on RUclips. Give me some feedback on what you think
This is what mine sounds like. Way too raspy for my taste, but I like how it screams in the higher RPM's: ruclips.net/video/NXuB2VxDKAw/видео.html It's a different engine than the IS300, but still an N/A straight 6 though.
why even change so much stuff if you don't put the turbo in? :S And what, you can't drive daily with turbo? :D This engine comes fucking alive with it, then you really feel wtf you are driving and why 2JZ is so legendary
@@Terryshowedup yo I'm about to pick one up with 100 K on it. I'm wondering the same thing. If it's worth swaping out. Also, 1jz is said to be better?. cost. What's the average to get this all done. To get the car running with the new engine swap. (turbo). And lastly, will it pass smog still and be able to be registered on CA?
Some Black guy that lives in the same building as me has a IS300 it's Black low and he has a widebody kit my Accord sits lower then his IS300 I'm on Function and Form Type one Coilovers
I’m not one for hating on people’s cars but this exhaust is horrible... ricer as... real basic bish shit... realistically it’s got wheel and coilovers. Nothing worth doin a video.
This video is old now btw... And I'm not usually one to respond to dumb comments, but a full exhaust from headers back isn't really "rice". As well as intake and other supporting mods like a radiator, coilovers, wheels, etc. Also did you even watch the video to see I swapped in a newer engine and painted the engine bay? I'm sorry if you drive something WAYYYY cooler and your feelings were hurt by watching my video. This video was simply to update people on the progress of the car. I now have another IS300 and it has better mods and more coming in the future. Thank you and goodbye.
Absolute Trash sorry to say but headers and straight pipe is ricer supporting mods are intake. When I was 18 and could afford real mods I did what he did to my car and it gave it no extra power at all. My exhaust was loud as shit like this car and it’s ricer to the max I know coz I did the same thing... I normal don’t hate on people’s car it not my thing... but this car at that point isn’t worth videoing, like I said I did the kinda mods when I couldn’t afford real mods and I wouldn’t of put up a video about mods on it as realistically the mods did nothing for the car sept made it sound stupid and added no power.
Then why are you watching the videos? You can choose to click off any time. We're young too and just like you explained in your response you mess around and do fun mods you can afford, so idk why you would hate on something when you did the same shit, pretty hypocritical. I plan on 1jz vvti swapping my new IS300 someday, as well as doing complete suspension upgrades. If I straight pipe my 1jz IS300 would you still call my car rice? Lol probably not because it will actually make more power then right? You act like making huge power numbers is all that matters. Listen man, I undestand where you're coming from with your comment, but the way you said it just gets under my skin.
Absolute Trash hey mate sorry for clearly upsetting you, I’ll try to help you instead of being an ass... not my intent.... yeah I did the same thing as on IS and now I look back I feel stupid for ricing my car and that all I’m trying to hit on with this IS. I have a GS300 and it had a 2jzge I had a muffler delete done on the exhaust sounds better. If you put a resonator on it it would sound better. Now for the 1jz swap, I’d do a 2jzgte swap, they make more torque, the 1jz does rev higher but unless you have big cams witch aren’t need for good power there isn’t really a point to get a 1jz... and as for that straight pipe on that, no straight pipe won’t make more power. On my 2jzgte I have now I have a custom stainless steel 3inch with resonators at the end of the exhaust and it makes more power with this set up the the straight pipe, it’s made to be free flowing and suited perfectly for the set up. Yeah sorry about getting under your skin, your right I could have worded it better to be constructive instead of being a hater... are you on club Lexus forum? There is some good second hand parts on the EG bigger injectors fuel rails and other parts that would be in a young guys affordability to improve power.
It's okay man I'm glad you're being more constructive now. I'm not into full on rage fights on the internet anyways lol. Your points on 2jzgte's are all good ones, I just have a personal preference with running a 1jz vvi because it comes with a single turbo factory and overall will be cheaper to swap into the IS300. Youd have to deal with a lot of quirks and spending more money to get a 2jzgte to work (ironically) because those twin turbos factory can have loads of problems. Both 1jz and 2jz have same exact motor mounts and will bolt up to my tranny/bellhousing as you know. Obviously if you want more power in the long run with more mods the 2jz is king, but I'm more into having a stock reliable engine and I want to get into drifting and other parts are gonna cost money like suspension so I want to budget the money there as well. I have actually talked to many guys who run 1jz's in their IS300's and they have had great success and I've done a lot of research of course. All in all, 2jz is the best engine ever built, but for drifting and my budget the 1jz will work better. Hopefully you stick around and can see that happen on video some day!
Love the video! Because of this channel I’m getting an IS300!
Cody 314 your gonna love it
I want one as well, even in 2018. I have a question will it fit two car seats in the back ?
What brand name are your mud guards
If you want that sticky stuff off the dash nail polish remover does work
GOO GONE works good too.
Dude with this exhaust it sounds like uber-tuned Honda Civic -.-
Darecki234 exactly so cringe
Hahahaha i was thinking the same
Not even close lol
Stay stock body with some TRD skirts you’d be styling hard bro!
Nice job Peter Parker!
Just got my first is300 can’t wait to drive it

Thanks for the taillights ✌️
HOL DE FUG UB, the like button is for free? well shit son, you had me at "free"
Wtf.... that is a sick sound I need that sound! How wide is the pipe!
I have cx racing too and my shit is slammed lowkey rides better than I expected
No offense or nun but you domt think that intake is hindering the cars performance?
What kind of tune are you using to deal with the cat delete/o2 sensors?
Been trying to find some good is300/altezza channels but damn, seems like you stopped the vids
Yall are so kewl 🔥🤘🏼, one of my fave channels gonna start uploading is300 stuff on my channel soon !

Ryan Rhind exact opposite where im from
Is it 17x9.5 both front and back?
I prefer fast quiet cars anyday.
Hey you probably won’t see this but I want to get a is300 01-05 idc but what’s your feeling about this car pros and cons wise
I have a white is 300 bought a boss stereo stock radio sucked going to get a magna flow then wheels after
Is it a double din? what model?
Car sounds great 🙌🏻
I got an 05 same wheels but the car is savanna metallic tho
Nice Video. I just got One.👍🏾
Did the engine bay come like that
What's the rims brand name 🤔
2 years!
I want a is300 like yours with no spoiler form factory
How do you not get pulled over for loud exhaust?! I only have a straight pipe catback and it’s hard to keep the car quiet accelerating... what state is this lol
Absolute Trash cops hate Colin
Throw some heat resistant Lexus stickers on the calipers
Where did you get that sticker on the speedometer ?
What make and model are the wheels?
Wheel specs ??
Wooooooo! Sweet Video
You should put a lip spoiler on the back
Dude that exhaust is obnoxious, you dont need a 3.0 straight pipe
I’ve got an 03 is, can I remove my Lexus badge in the rear and not have holes in the back?
yeee
Tim O'Connor the “L” symbol to?
@@MattF30 yes
Wait so you pulled out the engine and painted the bay and put the stock engine back in? Why not wait untill you swap it? Or are you not going to? Btw next time u need a grill hmu lol
he swapped the same engine in with less miles
Y'all should do a "how to" on doing the CDD on the is300. No videos out there.
SomethingGary look online dude you dont need a video, i hope
Any obd chips recommend for the IS?
nope, sorry...
I just got my is300 and its gonna be a project but it runs and drives
Hey great video guys, but wheres the IS300?
dope channel guys
subbed g's
Ya.. so like a straight pipe... lol
17x9.5 +15 front and back?
I asked another guy this will it fit two car seats in the back and do you think it’ll go to 250k on the stock motor ?
Amir Abdullah I have a car seat in mine for my 5 year old. It should fit one without issue on the other side. it has the latch points on both sides. Get a car seat protector so you don’t ruin your leather. Lusso is the brand I’ve been using for one year now definitely recommend it.
I’m at 120k on the stock motor but the 2JZ is hailed as indestructible.
260,850 on mine with cold air intake and exhaust. Change the oil with mobile 1 every 3-5k change ur timing belt and valve cover gaskets every 90-100k and ur good
that rasp though
Is it tuned
What brand are the lugs
Can you add links to the moods?
Nice! Change out that antenna bro
Also loook up pooor man mods to fix that chirp noise you put a spring so it pulls the clutch a little bit in but not to the point were it rides the clutch/wears it down I’ve been daily it for a few months now and I’ve had no problems you just has to fuck with it until it pulls just the right amount down but it does fix it lmao
Rear spoiler?
Where did you buy the MB wheels at?
got them used craigslist
why does the 2jzge sound so bad with exhaust
jamaicanlovrboy na motors get extremely raspy sometimes especially 6 cylinders
STBYE STI Yeah, my IS200 with the 1G-FE inline 6 is nearly as raspy as this one, I really don't like it. The raspyness all comes down to the header. I'm planning to get a custom equal length exhaust manifold fabricated for €1200, that should make it sound godly and smooth. :-)

That sounds quite nice indeed, but I couldn't live with a straight piped car, it's just soooo loud.
This is what mine sounds like. Way too raspy for my taste, but I like how it screams in the higher RPM's:
ruclips.net/video/NXuB2VxDKAw/видео.html
It's a different engine than the IS300, but still an N/A straight 6 though.
How many times did he say ammm
California?
So I have an 01 is300 with only 57,000 miles where should I start on mods thinking exhaust the rims anyone have better suggestions?
Personally, I'd start with suspension upgrades like lowering springs or coilovers, just depends on what you like. Exhaust and wheels are good too!
Absolute Trash thanks had it for years now just getting around to modifying it
hell yuh
i didn't know you could make a 2jz sound like a civc wth
you can make anything sound like a civic if you follow your dreams
@@timoconnor6116 lmao
You can do anything if you put your mind to it , just how i swiped all over screen on my phone to write this.✅
Why is he CEL on 👀👀
The*
maybe the headers
Because its an is300
No cats
Oh ,all cars have the cel on if the ignition is on and it's not running. It's so you can verify the light works.
Nonexistent on the bumper? Mines nonexistent everywhere! Yay Arizona cars
hell yeah, hmu for that race against my is on insta
Tim I’ll be up in there this weekend at nicks. I’d text you but I lost your fucking number. It’s Conner btw. MACDONAAALS
I’m subscriber 1000 🉐😈💯
I got a straight pipe is300 but it sounds way better than this bs 😂
