It's very nice indeed, popped into Notts quickly yesterday to test drive a GS430 Sport, and while I was waiting someone popped into the showroom to ask if they knew anything about the TTE Compressor...

Let's just say they didn't really know much but knew I was sat there and had it all fitted so we started talking.. Tony (they guy asking the questions), is over in the UK for 9 months and is buying either an IS200 or a Chaser when he gets home...

Tony did say the Chaser could be the favorite - I see why when I see this, does anyone know if there are many or even any of these in the UK?

I would guess that there's no model report out yet?

get one over 10 years old and no esva! :)

Wow I can't believe my car is on here cheers Oli.

Was just searching around to get info on the engine and there it was.

The wheels are indeed R34 GTRs 18 by 9 with 30 offset, think they needed a tiny roll to fit them.

Its a 2.5 1JZ GTE with a few bolt ons, T&E vertex bodykit, Tein HE coilovers and Recaro SPG front seats.

I hope to do a few of the UK D1 rounds and some track days when the car comes over.

Maybe if you don't mind a old toyota I can come to a few Lexus meets :D

That car is mint! It does look like an old camry at the back though.

If the interior was as comfy as an LS i'd be up for one. I'd like to see it in the flesh. I've just come back from years in Saudi and I spotted a similar LS400 sized car over there called a Nissan Gloria. They are big muthas but have skyline-esque lights at the back. Nice car sh :tsktsk: t name.

That thing is very nice!

Is it not similar to an old style ES300 in the states? Maybe I'm very wrong.....

I always liked these in Gran Turismo, we all know that if it's good in a computer game then it's good in real life! Ha ha!

Pop over to www.toyotaownersclub.com which is linked to LOC, most of the drift guy's can be found in the classic section but will be able to help you with your chaser, nice choice btw ;)

TOC will have the most AE86's in the show arena btw at JAE :winky:
