    I find it hilarious that, as im looking at a video of a car that im interested in (as a next buy too) I see a car which i actually own (Smart Roadster).

    The "fog light" button is the heated headlight washers. Looks like you have the Custom Luxury package, you should see the Ultra Luxury. I'd love to learn more details about the Torsen type Supra LSD...like part numbers? Is it the pumpkin only or is the whole rear end swapped in? The Lexus forums have lots of confusing info that often contradicts each other. I think it is supposed to be from an AT 5 speed Supra maybe? Lots of LS owners would love to see a video on that.

    Damn didn't know it came in Green! I've got the Silver. Jesus Christ clean up the head lamps, it's quick and makes it look SO much better.

      Funny you should mention that. They cleaned up like crystal! The green was a respray. Corvette colour.

      We'll try to treat it with some dignity. This one has plenty of luxury left in it.

    You should cut out the inner door skins and boot floor where the spare would go and replace it with a large metal sheet

    • @vPerformance
      @vPerformance  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We tried that in the driftbaru but it was very floppy. I wonder if we could get some sort of slightly folded sheet so it's stronger.

    I'm not a drifter but that's a pretty slick ride. I'd rock it as is, with heated rear seats and all. How cool would it be to take your friends to "Mexico" for a little winter drift on the snowy streets, in heated comfort? Would love to know more about the swap: what kind of bellhousing adapter was used etc. Having done 2 manual swaps now, it can sometimes be a huge upgrade, and sometimes it can ruin the comfort of the car. Seems like this car is pretty comfortable so wouldn't want to ruin it.

    Doing a Ls430 manual swap at the moment using the PMC j160 kit,
    Like to know a bit more how this car was made i know you said zfm3box,
    how was the clutch pedal done? always interesting to see how people get round that stuff !

    How much does it actually weigh.
    The Viagra was a performance adder for the v8 !! It's 'hard on' fuel

      Woah just over 1800kg. That's a big boi

    • @JKRmsrt
      @JKRmsrt ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @vPerformance should be able to get it down to about 13/1400 then if you strip everything out without taking away power windows etc. That's 250/tonne thats better power to weight ratio than a stripped out e46 with the 3.0
      It'll be quick for a boat.
      Just need a lock kit n a cheater stick n you'll be sound!!! Hopefully see you at driftland sometime !!

      Yeah we'll definitely get a hydro installed once the interior is stripped. Likely we'll put the light sparcos in from the driftbaru also
