I've got a jzs147, only problem I've got is the nitrogen accumulator in the brake system. Second hand parts for this system seem to be as rear as hens teeth. other wise its a awesome car

Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Cant really compare a “cheap quality” Caldina with a “Lexus” can you? Depends what you want it for. Both can be made to go very quickly. Aristo (JZS161) will indeed do 270-280kph in mild tune. Change intercooler, fuel pump, ECU and add boost controller for 280-290rwkws.

Expensive to modify but well worth it just to beat expensive “fast” Euro’s and smaller 4 cyl cars that think they are fast :P Caldina isn’t my area of expertise but some on here run 12’s with furl system and turbo upgrades (stock internals im assuming)??
2003 TRD Vitz RS Turbo - 160hp
2000 Toyota Aristo TTE - 490hp
1991 Skyline GTR - 720hp
