@shizukesajdm I was going to say it might be the caliper pins and not having the anti squeal hardware. I had the ebc yellow and stoptech rotors with the pins you have and no anti squeal hardware and it squealed bad. I tried oem break pads and stock rotors and still very loud squeal. I recently switched to the actual ls400 caliper pins with anti squeal hardware and it got rid of most of the noise. I think those after market pins could be a little bit bigger diameter than the oem pins probably causing the very loud squeal.

Man in the end it will end up you will make me sell it even before I start building it lol … naaa I’m just kidding you, this will also be my car for life … so a colleague of mine from Poland bought it for me on 1st of December 2022 and I went to Warsaw on 17th Dec 2022 and I was able to drive it on my own to Bulgaria on 20th Dec 2022, so I’ve drove 1500+ KMs in 283000+(ODO) KMs. 2003 Lexus IS300 Sportcross with LPG (but I was driving it only with gasoline cause I don’t want to screw up anything … anyways I’m definitely gonna take your video as a must about the breaks in my list as those calipers are a must (I had Bugeye EJ207 and I know how important are the breaks) but my main goal is to build the bottom end properly, so are you gonna use Manley dish top 1:9.0 pistons, what kind of rods ? Also what kind of injectors, but the most important thing is are you gonna use Speeduino ECU like the already done IS200 with Speeduino ECU or you’ll use something else, but I saw the M3 2JZ Swap which is already running Speeduino on it, so I’m very optimistic about it ! BTW if you can give me a hand at least where can I register and start following up on your build and to exchange information on all of those topics I will be very thankful if you do so and yes you are my inspiration to buy my own IS300 and to start building it on my own ! Keep that in mind ! Yes I would be eventually using the cheapest manual transmission I can find in my country and it is the BMW ZF CS6-53DZ with PMC Motorsport Stage 2 kit for it ;) … about the turbo kit I dunno … will see but there is a sick car tuner in my home town so may be I’ll give him the opportunity to create a fully custom turbo kit for me and really hope it will worth it, but man people says the stock head can handle max up to 500bhp so are you gonna put racing cam shafts and what springs and retainers for the valves or you’ll leave them stock ?

Hey! Thanks for watching! If you check out my first IS300 video, you'll see the plan all layed out. However, it will take a long time to get to that stage! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z69xgs2Xl926l2w.html&ab_channel=Shizukesa CP or Wiseco pistons Manley rods BC 272 cams BC titanium springs and retainers ACL bearings GTE HG with ARP studs 1000cc injectors Link ECU etc etc. But first, I will get 300hp from a turbo kit just to experience the stock turbo 2JZ power :) Also this gearbox I'm putting in won't take much more than 300hp and 500nm so I have to wait for the sequential dream! haha Good luck with your build!

Hi, great video! It looks like your brake line is touching your lower control arm at 42:38 . I had the same issue when I installed ss lines on my IS300 as well. It turns out, I was supposed install the brake line on the brake caliper first and then shape it into an "S" shape (like the stock brake lines) and then attach it to the hard line. Here are a couple pictures showing the stock line and ss line after I installed mine. Stock: drive.google.com/file/d/13A_51pGzKDIQrTeAiKx2BH43vk78ljPc/view?usp=sharing SS Line: drive.google.com/file/d/1VdNLDnulylzsEMIayGjoOIjRYlRC8laf/view?usp=sharing Just wanted to let you know that it might rub the brake line if left this way. Looking forwards to more of your videos!
