Introducing our NEW PROJECT CAR! Rare, Manual Transmission 2005 Lexus IS300!

[@esrapalma8820]

I've always wanted an is300. Looking forward to this build.

[@SatanAteMyCats]

Get one! So worth it dude

[@esrapalma8820]

@@SatanAteMyCats fortunately and unfortunately I'm already tied up in my r32 project car right now. So definitely no money for one. Lol

[@Bertbuildscars]

Keep it ge!!! And go NA-T just swap out to non vvti internals and you’ll have a motor ready for forced induction.

[@Bertbuildscars]

Also that blue part in The engine bay is a figs clutch dampener delete. Figs makes quality suspension parts. Look into them if you guys are truly going to drift taxi this build!

[@jr-nq8dc]

Agreed keeping the GE and doing NA-T would be awesome for this car. GTE seems too basic of an idea for me.

[@jicez6649]

That's what I'm building in my garage currently, budget friendly with gte head gasket and arp head studs

[@the_senor6740]

On god I have one too

[@joseacuna3239]

Well, that’s a nice platform. The LS swap is interesting but the GTE swap could be more awesome. And I’m all in for the 150 shot of nitrous #rickiegang

[@XxChocoTacoxX]

Agreed on all points. I'd rather not see an LS-swap but I'm along for the ride whatever they decide. And yes, 150 shot as a last hurrah for this engine. :D

[@TheHighAltitudeRambler]

GTE swap is too common. They have many video on KZbin with it but with the stock would be dope

[@Bounteekilla]

This gunna be a good build. Not everyone chooses this platform to modify but why not? It’s the Supra’s lil sister with the 2JZGE (obv non-turbo) but that block is STRONG!

[@madmikelike1]

Sc300 would be the little sister, is300 would be the little cousin.

[@El_Panalo]

Will you guys be engine swapping it with a 5.0L 2UR-GSE V8 from the IS-F? Love the 2JZ but throtl needs to do something crazy.

[@Ogbongrip420]

Or a 1uz from an ls400 or even a 4.5 v8 in the 2000s Infiniti q45 and m45s!

[@theregie604]

You guys gotta make a shirt for the mercy that says “polish your knob”

[@marlonfigueroa9296]

Hey Evan, saw your clip on the 2005 IS300. Nice. I am the original owner of a stock super clean 2003 IS300 5SP with 105k. I love this thing.

[@toastmeister]

Now we're talking, such an underrated chassie! Cant wait for more content!

[@romangarcia8053]

The first car I ever bought myself was a manual IS300 when I was in the UK. I loved that car. Excited for the build! I even put the shift knob from my Lexus in my MR2 I bought next.

[@RotaryDaddy]

Hell yeah glad you guys got into the is300 family! This is gonna be such a sick build!

[@acorgiwithacrown467]

The IS200 is kind of famous here in Ireland, they're literally everywhere and sell for like 4-5k. There's an entire culture around them and some insane builds with plenty of after market parts available here. I went to a fantastic IS200 meet up a while back, at least a hundred of them crammed into this tiny coastal town burning rubber all day. They're kind of like the budget Skyline, if you couldn't afford an R32 you bought an IS200, threw on a turbo kit and a new a exhaust and you've got 400-500hp for under 10k.

[@damo1308]

this video will be popular in Ireland 😂 we love our is200,is300 and altezza's 😜

[@roskoe95bg]

I'm so proud to see you doing an is300, I actually own one with BN sports kit. My Idea is put an LS400 with bi-turbo or 2jz-gte swap, with rocket bunny and bn sports + 19 inch wheels

[@KingASE88]

thanks a lot guys, ive been trying to get a manual is 300 for months now and they are gonna sky rocket in price after this vid...hyped on the build tho!

[@dennisparada8106]

Yes finally, the throtl team giving the IS300 the love it deserves 👏🤟

[@dave2094]

Build the motor and put on a turbo. I had a 2001 IS 300 but it was automatic. Never got to do a turbo build but it was a great car. Very reliable. Sold it at 249k miles.

[@manrami]

Keep it GE! There’s enough ls and gte builds on youtube.

[@DamniG123]

YES! i miss mine so much and no one hasn't been doing a good is300 project in awhile. can't wait to see how this gonna turn out!!

[@mrtfisher18]

I remember years ago I was looking at 5speed is300s and they were like 5k or so, now they're around 10k lol

[@ryanm.3393]

All the 240sx have been wrecked or clapped out..the is300 is gonna be the next drift car

[@ChristianTaylor3]

Convert to coil on plug. Build the block internals. Swap the GE intake manifold to a intake GTE manifold. Boost it with a decent single nothing huge. Make good power and drift it or something lol

[@yazanbaddawi9683]

What I appreciate of throtl is that they clean the car before they start working on it! Alot of youtubers just don't do that 🤣🤣

[@mj_aussie_coaster_travels8310]

Haha tag b is for build in this comment.

[@jdmfreak22]

I agree!

I'm so happy you guys are doing an Altezza, I've wanted one forever, can't wait to see what you guys do with it. Much love from Phoenix, AZ.

This car has a lot of potential. I've wanted one of these for a longgg time.

same!

[@MrCopious]

I’ve always wanted a early 2000s IS300, glad to see a new build coming from y’all on one.

[@robertobuenrostro2781]

Ricky that LS option sounds good, just boost it. 🚗💨😲

[@williamstrese4947]

I put a 6.0 ls in mine with a t56 no turbo but It is the best option by far if your going for street/strip.

[@dylanholdsworth7194]

Keep the GE and do an inexpensive turbo kit just to see what it will handle before motor swap! I just got an IS and want to turbo it soon.

[@imnotreallyleon]

Now this is a build im stoked for

Yes! I have an Altezza and I've been wanting you guys to do a build on this chassis

I have an 01, and an 04 at the moment. My 04 has built bottom end with an single turbo. Would love to see what you guys do. GTE and ls swaps are way to common on this platform. But the value has been growing on these and have great support from companies like FIGS.

[@Marc-Wyatt13]

Throw in the extra GTE that was supposed go in the 350!!! I NEED IT.... also LSD or welded diff is a must

[@joshuagray720]

Keep the 2JZ and twin-turbo it. Or better yet, see if you can get your hands on the V6 from the current IS300. Makes around 300 horses stock.

[@chrisbutler8059]

C-1 style front bumper and side skirts C-speed style rear bumper. Seibon XB CF hood. Seibon CF trunk. GT CF low rise style spoiler. Paint it (wrap it) battleship grey. Finish it off with some HRE S107. LS swap the engine.

[@EricJohnson-uy3jk]

Can’t do anything other than a turbo 2J. Rebuild the GE and do a nice single kit would be my preference.

[@kwbalance108]

I've drove one manual IS300 and loved it. I've always wanted one, but $$$ and difficulty finding one clean!

[@alexrothschild5044]

Only 2 swaps im hoping yall will do. either an LS2 or a IS-F transplant. either way, im sure yall are gonna kill it.

[@nellandrews9659]

altezza all the way, i love these cars. Been following yall for awhile and this project will be followed hardddd. Sending love from the Trinidad and Tobago in the caribbean. i think u should jus single turbo that monster

[@natecespinosa]

I’m excited to learn more about this 2JZGE from Quinn. There’s so much back and forth on whether the GE can be actually turned into a GTE. I’ve heard the blocks are the same, the blocks actually aren’t identical and it’s more than just the head. Can’t wait!

[@rossmetts1060]

So stoked for this one. I got a 03 silver is300. Please keep the 2jz ge and boost it. What's up with the carbon on the dash? Is it wrap?

[@joshs4896]

1. You guys are awesome keep up this videos. 2. I love this car. this is going to be a sick build to watch. 3. I think you guys should rebuild the GE. 9.8:1(ish) compression, forged internals, and turbo it!

[@zackzar337]

Happy to own a factory manual is300. They are so hard to find and the price you payed for it is honestly worth it.

Nice! Wouldn't mind seeing some version of Monsterservice kit for IS300/Altezza. Also wouldn't go wrong with MIRUM bodykit - it looks awesome.

[@prestongeorge9469]

I think keep it GE but swap internals so it’ll take boost. It would be a sick 4 door drift/street car.

Even though Ls swap is a powerful engine which would make the car a sleeper until you hit the gas pedal, but I love the sound of turbos and their endless upgrades

[@somdood3292]

my 3 favorite cars to hook up in the need for speed games back in the day as a teenager was a golf mk4, an eclipse and in later games an is300. all three of those cars handle so perfectly at the highest end and when you get them about stage 4 are super car fast. you guys are doing 2 of my favorite cars of all time right now. please do a mk4 gti next lol

Do the crate LS, it will fit the current American muscle you got goin. but blow the 2jz up first with 150 shot!!

Wouldn't call a manual version rear they are quite common in Europe as manual that and the Toyota Altza one but still looking forward to the build.

They're kinda rare here in USA. But this isn't a factory manual I'd assume given all the dash lights lol.

Keep the GE and keep it NA. Yes, it's not gonna be stupid fast but the next owner won't have any issues with it for the next 72641796 years. Also you can still push around 300hp na, which is perfect imo. Focus on the handling
