Thumbs up WA: cheap sc300 5-speed

//edit: picture taken 02-20-10

CLEAN TITLE!
5 speed
160k miles
Cloth interior/slicktop
Heated mirrors
weighed 3430lbs with 3/4 tank of gas without me in it
17/25 MPG
230hp 2jzge engine
new stage 2 clutch about 3000 miles ago
tokico blues with espelir lowering springs (1.5-2" drop)
unorthodox lightweight crank pulley
Comes with most of an xspower turbo kit.
new T04 88 trim turbo ($500)
Lucas 5w-30 synthetic race oil has only been run in the car since I've owned it
redline manual transmission race oil was put in the transmission in november when I got it flushed and filled.

I also run a bottle of redline watter wetter in the coolant to help the motor cool down.
New $90 custom floor mats for the front seats
Stock wheels with basically new snow tires (evo enkei 17x8 wheels in the picture can be purchased for an additional $450, the tires are worn out on the EVO wheels though) New Autolite premium battery with new heavy duty brass battery terminals
Cold air intake
Needs some paint on the bumpers and rocker panel patched and car would look new!
$3500

I have done a complete tuneup: synthetic lucas/redline fluids, new bosch cap, rotor, spark plug wires, NGK iridium spark plugs, new PCV valve, air and fuel filter, brass battery terminals, transmission flush.
Also including an electric waterpump (bought for $480) and electric fan kit ($360). I just installed a new premium autolite battery. All gauges, switches, *****, and buttons work. The car drives awesome with the sport suspension, it needs wider tires though.

The car doesn't need anything major, like a typical SC300 the gauge needles don't light up and the climate control screen LCD has bleeding on it. The shifter could use new bushings, the clearcoat on the wood trim is peeling, the passenger side mirror paint is flaking off. At the moment the rear view mirror needs to be reglued to the windshield (the auto tint function on it works perfect) and the interior door handles need to be replaced with new ones I haven't installed yet. The interior handles were mistreated by the previous owner and pieces of them are cracked/broken. The replacements I have are in perfect shape.

I'm probably into the car about $5600 right now after all the tuneup stuff and the work I've done to fix things, needs only minor cosmetic repair on the bumpers and mirror to be perfect! The bumpers were not repainted because I had planned to buy a bodykit for the car and replace the mirrors with VIS carbon fiber ones. Thanks for the interest! :mrgreen:
KBB is $3800 for one in Fair condition for a stock one

$3500OBO! I'm looking to sell asap, let me know what you have to offer.
PM or e-mail me for any questions.

nope, stock internals. Everything I've read has said that the bottom ends of the 2jzge and the 2jzgte are the same, just the heads have some differences and the 2jzgte head flows better. I'll change the ad, since I'm wrong.

Just installed 13lb lightweight flywheel, rear main seal, throw out bearing, pilot bearing and stage 2 clutch. Also removed the clutch fan and installed flex-a-lite electric fans that turn on by a stealth toggle switch. $3700 price still stands even with the new $1k worth of new parts!

$3500, just installed an OEM sach's clutch because the stage 2 was annoying to drive on. The car is located in beaverton, oregon now! Need to sell soon to buy my wife a new car. She was just in a semi-serious accident and I need to pay for her new car.

I just spent $800 replacing a bunch of little things wrong with the car and a
$300 professional detail.
replaced:
*clutch/throw out bearing/pressure plate with new OEM Asin unit
*upper radiator hose, new thermostat, coolant flush
*flushed rear differential with redline 75w-90 diff fluid
*new Lexus transmission belt
*new OEM serpentine belt and dayco pulley
Looking for $3700 or best offer now. Looking for cash. That stuff was expensive. :-(
