Title: You've Got a Rundown 300-Series GR: Upgrade or Keep it Stock?

Hey everyone, so I just picked up a 300-Series GR in rough shape for a project build. The 2JZ is in decent nick but the rest of the car needs some TLC. Thinking of doing a full resto or upgrading the engine, anyone got any advice?

"Personally, I'd say upgrade the GR if you're looking for a serious boost. The 30 series is already a beast, but there are some awesome aftermarket options out there for the GR's engine and suspension. Just make sure you're not overdoing it on the mods, OP"

"Dude, that GR is a beauty! I'd upgrade the suspension and maybe throw some lightweight wheels on it, but honestly, if you're not planning on tracking it regularly, the stock setup isn't bad at all. You'll just have to decide what you want it for."

"Dude, it's a tough decision, but if you wanna boost its performance, a GR is definitely worth upgrading. Get that high-capacity battery and maybe even a GPU tune, it'll give you a solid edge. Just make sure you don't void your warranty"

"Imo, the 300-Series GR is an underrated whip, but if you want to take it to the next level, I'd say the LFA kit is a game-changer. Gives it that aggressive vibe, and I've seen some sweet results from owners who upgraded it. Not worth it if the stock one's working for you tho"

"Hey OP, if you're lookin for a boost, the 400-series GPU upgrade option might be a good call. I've seen some decent gains from that upgrade on the 300-series. Still, depends on your usage and budget, of course."

Yo, I'd say upgrade the GPU to a 3080 or even a 3090 if you can afford it, it'll make a huge difference in 4K gaming and even some 1440p titles are gonna get a performance boost. But if you're running 1080p, the stock 300-series is probably fine. Your call, but I'd prioritize the GPU upgrade.
