    Love these - had a perfect manual a few years ago, sold it to a guy who left a note. Ended up buying another a few years later because they’re such fun. Clear tails forever ❤️
  • @dericfrazier5075
    Great video, love my 2002. Suspension, wheels and tires done and few other cosmetic upgrades made it a head turner.. But it's an auto..., every fan boy asks "when are you gonna turbo it?" And I'm plenty happy with the na 2j, just need that pedal for my left foot and I would be in heaven, it's a fantastic car, true toyota dedication to driver enjoyment.
  • Yall be on it with these intros. Alex gels and Dakota. Yall keep doing yalls thing. Loving the content
  • @Ice-ti9qi
    I have a 5spd and I love it! Took me about a year to find one in decent condition that wasn’t over priced. Hoping to turbo it in a year or two!
  • @KindaKyle36
    loveeee this video alex, i have a little brother(20yo) with 2 of these cars, one a daily driver even in winter, and a rust free option that came with a blown motor. some doofus before him tried to turbo the car, boost gauge plumbed backwards and all. super fun cars tho, hes going back to stock na motor, and hopefully a manual swap too! keep up the great work and Happy holidays!
  • @Soltor1974
    I love my is300 01 super clean fun OE +++ street build. Yea she’s slow but it just gives the fans more time to admire her great looks. Picked it up back in 02 and plan to keep her forever ❤
  • @cmlmed1a
    Mannnn I saw is300 and clicked IMMEDIATELY! I will be doing a manual swap very soon! I’d love to get into drifting in it within a few years

    Had mine way back in 09 vis hood, with Rhys Millen body kit. Hks hi power exhaust, headers and back then turbos were not the only kit. Threw on the vortech centril kit made 8 lbs of boost, Brian coward cams. I LOVED that dang car.

  • @123alega
    Damn seeing the sport wagon makes me want one so fucking bad its so beautiful
  • @BoostedHamz999
    Had my 6spd manual IS200 for nearly 2 years now, loving every bit of it!
  • @EvolveGarage
    Loved our IS300, Great car for drifting and can be super clean if done right :)

    Hello future/current IS300 owner! Here’s a couple helpful notes not mentioned in the video. Despite what the video says, the car greatly benefits from a sway bar upgrade in the back at the very least. Eibach. The manual box in these cars is not common. The auto is actually better, simple adjustments in its valve body and pressure switch will make it shift faster with less lag and the revs will drop quicker. The limited slip diff from the GT86/FRS is a direct swap into the is300, and it’s geared higher and a little stronger than the stock diffs.

    We need a video on the second gen IS as well.
  • @thedebumdum8268
    This car was the first project/daily it’s an 01 and everything I know and do started because of this car. I’ve tried selling it like 4-5 times but there’s so much sentimental value that I couldn’t so now I’m in the process of manual swapping it (without going broke buying it all at once) give me about a year and it’ll be the most prized car I’ll ever own it’s at 251k miles too
  • @caydc
    You should do the Lexus SC300/SC400 Next!
  • @noomboom510
    dropped the video at the perfect time. After 2 years of sitting in my driveway I'm working on my car again.
