Description:

Hey guys, the time has finally come to part ways with this car. I get questions and numerous emails all the time asking about the car and how the swap was done. If you ask anyone who has done research or put any thought into doing an engine swap to an IS250/350, they will tell you just how hard and complicated something like this is to complete. This project required extensive fabrication and wiring far beyond anything most people could imagine.
It is the only 2nd gen IS250 in the United States with this motor swap (from what I know).
Out of all (which is very few I believe) of the engine swaps done on the Lexus IS platform, I believe this car retains the most OEM functionality.
The car was built by Lance Ho Lung from Toyomoto and took almost three years to complete. No one else has ever worked on or tampered with this car but myself or Lance(my father actually). I believe that this is also partly the reason why many people have tried, but have never been able to replicate this engine swap yet. If you go on google and search 2jz is250, this is the first car that appears.
Features such as the factory smart-key FOB system, A/C, power windows, and the digital read out display within the factory gauge cluster all work on this car. This car also still retains the original Electronic Power Steering and uses Drive-by-Wire. Working features also include the paddle shifters, and cruise control as well. The only thing that does not function is VSC (vehicle stability control).
This is a one owner car
. Upon completion in December of 2010, my mother was driving the car daily until mid-2013. When finished, it made 494HP at the rear wheels on the dyno with a Precision 6765 turbo. In 2014, the turbo finally went out and was replaced with a Precision 6768 which is slightly bigger, but more importantly, is a much more reliable turbo.
On the dyno it ended up making 505HP and 460TQ on 93 octane pump gas.
Since I took over driving the car, it currently sits at home in the garage and is driven a couple times for the month. In the past year and half, I have put on wheels, coilover suspension, upgraded the brakes, among other stuff just to make the car stand out and look special. This is a special car to me and I really hope it goes to a good home and continues to be well taken care of.
The car will be sold as is, but if you would like the option of buying it with the factory OEM wheels INSTEAD of the ADV.1 wheels, then other negotiations can be made.
