seven years and this is your first pics of the GS.. wow...

nice looking GS...

 

I have the same car only difference is its silver w/ blck interior. I had installed the speed delimiter now I need a 320 TRD speedo as whenever I go over 180 I cant really tell how fast I am going. Can you tell where did you pick up you TRD speedo from?

Thanks

 

he got it a yahoo auction in japan i believe.

Seriously USA get to miss out on all the great different model out there. Damn laws! oh well Sick ride keep us posted on progress. The IS is sick too

 

payback for pearl harbor....j/k

 

I have HSD coilovers sitting in the garage but I have not fitted them yet. They are almost the same as Stance
I bought the Aristo in Jan '09 I bought the IS200 in Jan '03 that's when I registered

I bought the speedo from Yahoo Japan auctions but you have to be careful, there are 2 versions: 1 for 98-01 and one for 01-04 cars

Mine is delimited and I had a km/h to mph converter so the speedo could go up to 180mph. I have disconnected it now and it is nice to see the needle going over 250km/h

 

whoa, did you say no sunroof?

 

yes...MOST non usdm gs's have no sunroof, a power antenna,headlight squirters, cloth interior and a nice 2jz-gte

 

erm ... not exactly. Only the JDM Toyota Aristo V300 came with the 2JZ-GTE and most of the European GS have leather interior

 

VERY nice car man! Welcome!

BTW, anyone have stock figures on this V300? such as HP, TQ, 0-60 and/or 1/4 mile times? If you really think about it there are NO 4 door cars (with a 6 or 8 cylinder) in the US that come with turbos from the factory. I'm sure people would be all over it if they existed here.

Again, nice pick-up!

 

I don't think you you thought this one through, cause being a car guy you already know this

Ford - 2010 Taurus Turbo
Jag - XJ 2.7 Twin Turbo
Saab - 9-3 & 9.5
Audi - A4 2.0T

 

wasnt aware of that.....do the european gs's have sunroof? most i have seen have the features i listed but i stand corrected i c

 

pimp...slamn it

 

stock figures are 280bhp and 335lbft torque, I don't have any times but it should be close to a Targa auto Supra TT as it is only 100lb more
Sunroof was an option on the Sport and Executive models in Europe and on the Vertex Edition in Japan
The European has the radio antenna on the rear right quarter while the Aristo has it integrated to the rear window
Headlight squirters are for European cars with HID, there are none on the Aristo
Cloth interior is quite common on Japanese cars, in Europe however 90% of the GS's have leather
In Europe we only have the GS300 and GS430, we did not get the GS400 nor the 2JZ-GTE powered Aristo that was for the Japanese market only

 

Good looking car mate, its a shame that here in the states we never got the proper toyota models.
