Ok, the only difference between the two models is price, and engine. Correct? There must be a way to pump up the leaner gs. It weighs less inherently, so it has that performance advantage, is it possible to use the $6000 you save to purchase aftermarket parts, and perhaps have a gs300 that could outperform a stock gs430? What parts would you recommend?

larger brakes and a simple bolt on turbo.

You'll be doing circles around the GS430 but will be a lot more than $6000.

well since a NA supra and a GS300 use the same engine I would think that a turbo made for a NA supra would work with a GS300 but not sure since I havent realy looked into it but theoreticly it should work maybe with a TC to make the trany bulet proof that would do wonders
