I finally got to add one more super cool Toyota engine to my list of engines i’ve worked on. The 3S-GE BEAMS Blacktop is one of the coolest engines to come out of Toyota that didn’t get much traction worldwide.
Exclusive to Japan, The Toyota Altezza was home to the latest generation of the 3S-GE Before it was discontinued.
In part two of this series we continue work on it hoping to get everything done pending the radiator but that’s when things went south because I made a mistake which delayed the project some more!

I used 1ZZ coil packs on my 3S manual Altezza and have no issues so far
Surprised to see a valley plate leak’s still being the issue in modern Lexuses, like RFCs. They put 5.0 in every performance oriented car. Any LC 500 owners had the same problem????
Can you make a video on the full timing belt job on a 2jz-ge? Thank you
Labor times for modified cars: triple what the flatrate book says.
The LS400 radiator can be used in the Century…..but some mounts need to be fabricated.
Your civility in the face of adversity is commendable.
