Anyway, to GSoup I don't think so. I think it was a Japanese written article. He used for drifting. Hope they do bring it, to the US (eastcoast or course).
Those rims are a little more bling than I am use to seeing on a JDM modified car. I guess for show.

Reason I ask was Because I was considering the ls1-6 on my Gs4 ...

My bros ls1 / 240 will be back in t minus 5 days ... I am assuming one day this will happen .. but I will keep my eyes peeled ..

Btw let me click the link !

the Aristo looks very clean ! surprised No one has taken that motor out and dropping in something different... we all know the 2jz is Nice

Default wrong

Yes I have that issue and the car is just a modified V300 with oem installed 2JZ-GTE, pretty gay article, I've seen lots of those cars every time i'm in Japan. Any one should know because the gay right hand drive gives it away as soon as one looks, not mention many other parts.
