FS: 1994 GS300 w/GTE swap
I am selling my 1994 Lexus GS300. The car has a 2JZ-GTE engine/transmission from a Toyota Aristo, but the turbos and injectors have been upgraded to USDM specs. The car is a true twin turbo making 18 pounds of boost, and is tuned by an Apexi SAFC that is hidden in the factory Lexus ashtray location. The wheels are Volk GT-7s (18x9 front, 18x10 rear) and are paint matched to the car. The suspension is lower than stock, sporting KYB struts/shocks and Eibach springs, but the ride quality is OEM. Interior has been completely reupholstered, and the instrument cluster has been rebuilt with new LEDs by Lextech. This car is 100% reliable, makes great power, looks sharp, and is a lot of fun to drive. Enjoy M5 performance at a tiny fraction of the cost, and enjoy the benefits of Toyota reliability.
The Good:
2JZ-GTE, with USDM turbos/fuel injectors
FMIC
Volks
New upholstery
400 rwhp on 93 octane
21 mpg average fuel economy
LSD out of a TT Supra
Keyless entry with remote start
Log of every invoice, receipt, and service since I have owned the car
The Bad:
Paint on drivers side mirror is failing. and some clear coat flaking at the top of the drivers door trim
that's it... there are no other problems
Looking for 9500 obo.

I've seen and ridden in this car with previous owners.. always ran strong and good!
very nice car..
nucleare, don't know the new owner but about a year ago i know it had Cold *** A/C and PS worked great.
i don't think it's mentioned in the for sale ad, but i believe it has a name brand JDM catback exhaust as well..
goodluck with sale, it's a nice car.

Chassis is 244k, motor is about 85k.
Every single thing on the car works perfectly. A/C is cold enough to make ice if you desire, and P/S works as well. I bought this car about a year ago and spent most of my effort in doing some interior clean-up. This car will not disappoint.
Yes, the car does have an HKS exhaust.
edit- caveat on the 244k mileage for body. The chassis has 244k, but almost every major service component is fresh. The rotors and pads are new. The ball joints are new. The wheels and tires are new. The shocks/struts are new. The gas props for the trunk and hood are new. Pretty much the only things that have 244k are the unibody and glass. This car is a daily driver for me at the moment.
double edit- I can provide about $2500 in receipts for the work I'e done on the car. Not looking to make a profit, just want to get a decent value for it. Looking for an E36 M3 convertible to replace this one.

I'm in Augusta, which technically almost as far away as I can be from any point in Alabama. BUT... I'm from Alabama and my folks still live in Tuscaloosa. It is not a problem if you'd like to meet somewhere close to you since I would just package it with a trip back to see my family. Where you at in Bama?
Thanks for your interest.
edit- there's a guy in B'ham with an Estoril Blue M3 vert I've been talking to. It'd be sweet to hit the I-20 border westbound in the boosted Lex and then eastbound with a dropped top E36.
