Thanks heaps man!!

18x9.5 +15

@@JohnnyBalazodid you need spacers for the setup?

@@Indigo_Saga555 surprisingly they fit over LS400 calipers, barely. No spacers required

@@JohnnyBalazo do they rub?

@@Indigo_Saga555 fenders definitely require a trim, 235/40/18 size tyres

GS300 with 2JZGTE swap. Currently has a TRD 2 way diff from a Soarer, 4.08 ratio. Really brings the car alive

That doesn't sound like a 1uz why would you ask if it's a gs400 lol?

@@kingjr1uzfe387 sounded like my boys uz lmao

​@@JohnnyBalazohow much did u pay for the diff? Currently in the market for one myself.

I found this one from Japan, landed in Australia for about 1.4k AUD. Unsure how much they would go for now. Could be better to get an off the shelf clutch type like Cusco or OS Giken. Still a lot of moolah though.

Thanks mannn, it's a straight riot for sure

Hole saw 🤣

I'd love to build a UZ one day, great V8 motors

Did you get it

About 400whp, 18x9.5 wheels

Thank you!! I broke the transmission a few months ago at a drift day, I have a new one to replace it, so hopefully more turbo noises again soon 😀

Nothing really, rolled front fenders, trimmed the inside lips of the rear fenders. Toms Aristo from bar.

Yes. You can fit the diff from an SC and Supra (small flange) directly into the GS

Yeah so it makes sense you dildo, you shift with your left hand so your right hand is controlling the steering. Feels way more natural and that’s someone who has driven both

You say that like American citizens had a say in the decision to drive on the left and side

@@mattbrooks162 I’m just saying the majority of humans are right handed so driving on the right side of the road seems natural, if the majority of people were left handed then driving on the opposite side would make sense.

@@boomboombaby9140 highways.dot.gov/highway-history/general-highway-history/right-side-road From a quick search, it looks like about 35% of drivers throughout the world drive on the left side of the road in right-hand drive vehicles.

It's the left side of a road and right side of the car. There is no wrong side. If you think wrong... you must have 2 wrong arms and 2 wrong legs???

You'd be surprised, the IS platform has generally just been a shorter wheelbase GS, so its DNA is rather sporty haha

They really arent that big

@@ogk129 The turbo model is nearly 1700kg. Pretty much 400kg heavier than the Silvias, MR2s and RX7s etc. Can definitely feel the weight in mine.

people still drift these big ass cars

@@LockieNZ For a sedan? 3800 lbs isn't that bad at all.

Hmmm, honestly unless you really really like the chassis, it's better to choose the other Toyota sedans to get your 4 door fix. Having said that, if you like the GS, absolutely it's worth it. It's so fun and stupid driving a big car like this.

​@JohnnyBalazo isn't it the same legendary chassis the mark 2 rides on? If so these are legendary cars through and through.

Quite close, fundamentally the same, though they don't quite share the same suspension parts. Definitely legendary

@JohnnyBalazo well I'm building my aristo jzs161 engine head with cams, new springs and retainers, and valve stems.not sure what transmission yet

@@JohnnyBalazo nice ride my dude, str8 up. Thanks for the content!

R154! :)

I'm pretty lucky I found it for a good price from Japan a few years ago! Might be worth keeping an eye out on Yahoo auction Japan

It's a TOMs front bumper from a VA300!

Man the memories of WRC, truly golden age

Hey sorry for the late reply. I did it myself, took an R154, custom drive shaft, JZX100 clutch pedal assembly and master cylinder. GB had already been converted to concentric slave from a T56 transmission. I'd probably budget 10k of labour and parts if someone were to do it

Aerpro I believe, been awhile but there's a lot out there, this is the double din to fit a screen :)

The hardest part of probably getting the clutch pedal assembly in place. To make it easier since you're in the states of im not mistaken, look up heat lighting speed shop for the gs300 clutch assembly. Other than that basically need the transmission, a little trim of the gear lever opening in the tunnel and a drive shaft made up to length. Then figure out your handbrake, hydro or retrofit something from like a jzx or a sc300/soarer

Thanks man. Can't compete with a 2J (ok maybe a built RB comes close 😅). Get the SerialNine OEM+ bushing kit. Looks sick and a little harder than OEM without going overboard. They can handle better than they appear, boats 😂

@@JohnnyBalazo do they still make the oem+ kit? Cause I can only find solid mount bushings which I mean, if I got to go with them I will 😂

@@GrizzlyGarage interesting, I can still see the polyurethane kit which they call the OEM replacement. That's probably the most ideal, you don't wanna go solid at all 😅

Thanks! It's extensive in some ways. Powertrain: 2JZGTE unopened Garrett GTX3582r 0.83 TiAL exhaust housing. GReddy intercooler Driveline: R154 trans TRD LSD 4.1 ratio NPC twin plate clutch Chassis: BC BR 18kg front 12kg rear 25mm RCA front and rear Serialnine rear subframe bushings IS350 brakes

@@JohnnyBalazo anything crazy done to adapt the is350 brakes?

@@PgamerTBP I bought the calipers from Japan with adapter brackets already but that's about it. Google 350phi and they provide info and brackets to suit

@@JohnnyBalazo thank you!

Welcome!

R154 :)

It is a 350mm Nardi deep corn glossy spoke

​@@JohnnyBalazobut what about the airbag??? 😢😡😊😅👍

@@toyotadude6771 uhhh hahahaha it's a teeth breaker now 😂

Is there somewhere I can PM you?

😂 yes it's actually a tractor engine

I'm happy to hear that man! I don't have a lot of time to go to a lot of events and edit videos so that means a lot, hope I can keep making videos everyone can enjoy. I am planning to make a walk around video of the car soon, keep yourself posted!

Thanks man!!

Hey Matt! That's excellent news, circuits are a great place to explore car performance and driver ability. It depends on the type of motorsport you might be interested in. I'd do some research into a few different types motorsport. Motorkhana, Hillclimbs, and of course track days on a full size circuit. Entry these days is getting kind of expensive, the 2 former suggestions are really cheap entry into motorsport. If you do wanna head straight into track days, there's circuits like Winton or Sandown which mostly don't have super high cornering speeds. Event organisers such as Tampered Motorsport for Sandown, or Winton has organisers like Track for Days, or Vivid Motorsports. You can sign up with them, though do note you'll require a race license which you can sign up for and pay a small amount for an entire year. Don't be afraid to ask the organisers for some help as a beginner!

@@JohnnyBalazo Alright thanks so much for the info! Will def sus out all these options. Chucked a subscribe, excited to see ur brz journey :)

@@flumpyOCE appreciate it mate!!! Hope to see you out there in the future, don't hesitate to ask more questions!

@@JohnnyBalazo an update: booked my first track day at PI with wrx club 2nd july :) Very excited, have been practicing in iracing and rewatching your video for more reference haha!

@@flumpyOCE sweet!! Do your thing, listen to the Marshalls, stay calm and enjoy the moments 😊

Not yet! I need to get it tuned, wouldn't mind taking it here haha, would rip on the straights

Still adamant that everyone should have one hahaha

Just some guy who strolled into the right event! Can confirm, everyone should have one.

...AC is on, not even my final form

@@JohnnyBalazo Fourm

Only rack spacers, haven't modified anything knuckle related just yet :)

Yes dad's!!!

Ho ho hoesssss LOOOOL
