So does everybody call clear taillights "altezzas" because they were on the Altezza first?

Don't the Lexus IS300 and IS400 come with 2jz-gte.
I heard that from a nigga with a IS340 or whatever the higher IS3** is.

Currently there is only the IS300 in the US. There's no such thing as an IS400. Lexus uses the numbers behind the letters to identify displacement. TTE (which is Europe's TRD) did a engine swap and took a LS430 engine and put it in and IS and they called it a IS430 (not a production model). But there is no current V8 production model of the IS any where in the world. Trust me no current model of IS300 comes with the 2JZ-GTE engine or I would have gotten it. All IS300 in the US come with the 2JZ-GE engine. A few people have done the swap though but it's not as straight forward as people think it would be.
