Monky London held a raffle for this unique Toyota Altezza Gita Z Edition. Instead of being powered by a naturally aspirated 2JZ inline-six, this wagon is powered by a 4.3 L 3UZ-FE V8 from a Lexus GS430. The V8 features a custom 3-inch stainless steel exhaust and runs on a remapped GS430 ECU thanks to a Phoenix Engine Management wiring harness. Behind the motor is a J160 six-speed manual transmission with a Rank One Performance adapter and a welded rear differential. The wagon rides on HSD adjustable coilovers, Destroy Or Die shortened spindles, Cusco adjustable upper control arms, and electric power steering. The exterior features Gita Neo aero, Elixir V2 rear spoiler, and OZ Futura Monoblock 17-inch wheels.
