This 2003 Lexus GS300 SportDesign edition arrived at DRAG International<\/a> for a powertrain upgrade. In the engine bay they swapped a twin-turbo 3.0 L 2JZ-GTE inline-six and A341E four-speed automatic transmission from a Toyota Aristo (JZS161). DRAG International also installed the Aristo’s fuel system and ECU, and a GReddy intercooler kit, HKS stainless steel exhaust, and Derale transmission cooler. The sedan rides on a set of Tanabe coilovers and Axis 20-inc wheels. The body retains the factory Graphite Grey Pearl paint with a TTE-style front lip and SportDesign trunk lip. <\/p>\n
