IS300 swap
IS300 swap picked up this 02 IS300 a few months ago for a daily driver for $750. it has a salvage title & is a little rough but it runs good & has a/c. currently has a 2Jz with CAI, header & a tune.
having just finished a swap into my bagged 96 chevy fullsize
i had every intention of doing an LS1 swap into the IS when i bought it.
then i came across a hell of a deal on an 02 LS1 pulled from an 02 Camaro SS. complete package, motor (has LS6 intake), trans (4l60e), uncut harness, ECU, & all accessories, with 35K.
i've seen a few swaps done on here & still have a lot of research to do but i have confidence i can handle it. i'm trying to barter as much as i can to do the swap, i did about 75% of my last swap bartering. progress will be slow but i'll update as progress moves along.
any of you guys that have done the swap please contact me, i have a few questions.

it's not a very common swap but it's been done. i hoping to score a t56 before i'm ready to do the swap. if not i'm sure it will still be fun with the auto. wish there was some way i could get the paddle shifters in the IS to work.
yeah man, i stole the car & the motor going in it, LOL!!! thanks for the pan, it will save me a bunch of time. hoping to have my t56 next weekend. traded my 4l60e for it. parts are pilling up, few more things & i'll be ready to jump into it..

Brett Foote i'm going to make my own mounts. i've found a few places that sell kits, but they're crazy wanting $600-$900 for them for a few pieces of steel. i've seen enough pics online i can fabricate my own. i have several sets of blank LS1 plates & have a cad file for all the pieces. i'm going to have my friend cut a few sets of the rest of the pieces then build a few sets. i'm using a modified GTO pan from Stancel. i plan on matching it to a friend of mines pan from CX Racing for his 240 & i would like to match it up to the Sikky pan from another friend of mine doing a 240 LS1 swap.
trade fell through on the t56 so i'm back to selling the 4l60e, i really want to do the six speed in this car. also selling the GTO pan i bought. $700 for the trans & $300 for the modified pan. trans has 35k on it & was pulled from an 02 camaro.
the 3 pieces are from scaling of some pics of some other mounts i've found that other people have made. they may not be perfect but they're a good start. the plate that mounts to the motor is done to exact spec. i have a bunch of those plate already made up & have friend's that have plasma & water jet tables so they can hook me up with cutting anything i can design.
