430 and 01+ 300 have the same issues/requirements.

The B pipe under the car is different on a 300 to a 400/430, but other than that once you've pulled the engine your left with the exact same chassis wiring task to tackle across the board.

So everything here is relevant. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...wap-stuck.html

The 430's motors are great drivers as is and have a higher resale value than a 300, if your car is still stock you could prob sell it and buy a 98-00 300 and still have funds left to put towards the GTE..

IMO it's kinda of a waste of a 430 to swap it, when 98-00 300's are like free now to use as a swap donor. Which is why all the Honda kids are buying them recently and acting like they are going to build something nice out of them with duckbilled fenders and ebay turbos.

I know it is very sad i saw the haggard garage 2jz GS and i wanted to choke myself, and that kid. Ebay turbos and it blew up... Then they bought a 5.3 and are LS swapping it... Thats not an LS motor! A 5.3.. Talk about budget swap. Im so pissed, now all theyre 15 year old subcribers are going to want one and prolly get one when they turn 16

pipe dream mess? How is that even relevent to what i posted? If your talking about about me boosting my car.. Well then dont be a hypocrite, what happended to you LS swapping your car? I was provided with misleading information like i couldnt run a SC on the stock ECU. So i ditched that idea, and now that RRRacing is developing a tune for The UZ engines, i ditched the LS idea ( witch wouldnt have consisted of a junkyard 5.3) i was out the GS game for awhile and just picked one up about 2 years ago, give me time to make my dreams come true lol

The 430 engine is a great platform, it has alot of overlooked potential. If i remember correctly the 3uz it has one of the best flowing intake manifolds of the UZ engines and forged rods from factory, also dont mind sakataj, he thinks hes a moderator
