"I'm just going to chill right here"

 

What the what

 

Yeah, I'm having that issue too. Looking at Rav4 V6 with the 2gr and what mods I can do for more power, lowering and shit like that. Then I discovered the 2JZ powered IS300 wagon and have been drooling over that today. Already know I'll have to do a manual swap if I go that route. And they are rare cars in wagon form. 3 in Phoenix right now tho. Good thing I don't have the funds together just yet. and @Empty_Lord doesn't help, he just feeds me info to fuel the power fire. What a dick!

 

Lol, yeah, I seen that one before. Fucking lucky!

 

Man I love the IS300 wagon, but I have never seen one here for sale the whole time I've been casually looking. I'd have to get one shipped in. I'm a sucker for a wagon too. I've looked at some BMW wagons but I don't know if I want the potential headaches. And I know everyone has their opinion on Subaru but I saw an STI wagon for sale the other day and I had to look twice. (I also have some shameless interest in 2 door Minis.)
If I go manual it opens up more fun options.

 

The big issue with the is300 sport cross (and regular one) is the throttle bodies have the same issue the 03-04 tacos have

 

Having a daily that requires premium fuel defeats the entire reason for having a daily, or it did for me anyways. My TSX needed premium gas and it got to where it was cheaper or the same price to drive the Taco, even if I have to fill the truck up more often.

Food for thought.

Carmax offered me $800 over what I owed so I dumped that car and havent thought twice about it since.

 

@Sperrunner @Kwikvette
Also now on the list

Just looked at the boots and they are destroyed lmao.

 

I'm alright with more premium fuel if I'm getting a good enough increase in mileage. (Premium in my LC at 12mpg wasn't so fun) It's also just the weight and such of driving a truck being built for trips that kinda sucks in heavy city traffic. Braking for tourists who decide to run across the street at the last minute will pucker you up quick haha. I don't have ABS either and I've done a couple solid skids.

 

I’m going to start calling you Dan if you keep this up.

 

Get the deep cut and the swag offroad table for it https://www.swagoffroad.com/SWAG-V40-Portaband-Table_p_63.html

 

Niccce. Didn't know that existed.

 

Havnet bought it yet but been meaning to get it. Makes the bandsaw way more useful in a shop.

 

Yeah, the IS300 Sportcross is neat but only around 4000 were sold in the US. All autos as well. 2003 to 2005 I think.

 

Granted that was on a 46K miler...but even on BAT the last one was in April
