Is that a VVT-I motor? If it is, how hard was it to get to that power level? People seem to be afraid of the VVT-I motors. Good looking is300. Making me contemplate my decision to soon get an sc300, but then I'd have to change my screen name.

its fine, the TRD LSD is a bit rough though going around corners....
correct....I have a seperate transmission cooler, thats why the koyo says manual specific, because the stock IS radiator has the trans cooler in that.
most people are affraid of the stock vvt-i motor and with good reason. people get cheap and slap on a turbo kit and wonder why it doesnt work. the stock motor is too high compression for boost, and the stock rods are weak.

no, its a hybrid. Supra GTE bottom end, and stock IS300 head, but with Supra GTE cams, unorthodox cam gears, stock valvetrain though.

So is your stall converter reworked stock or aftermarket replacement?
