S4 is a little big?!?!? It's the same size as an IS300.... That, and the newer ones have a V8, AND a 6 speed...... straight badass....

I do like your car though Matt... lol..

I totally agree that a turbo would be awesome but I really don't think I want to invest that much money, time, and effort. I meet to a meet and saw an IS with a 2.75 SRT set up with a supra 6spd and rear end. Total he has invested about 20k into his car and make around 700rwhp. I think I would be happy with 300rwhp and that would cost me around $8k to do it right with the tuning and all. So my thoughts right now is to keep it mildly modded and probably trade it in on something next year. On a side note, I did final track the car and man was I impressed with how natural the car felt when pushed the to the limits. The Nitto's didn't even slick up with the heat! They held traction the best they could except when I made mistakes.

Yea I agree with you too.

Supra swapped IS300s are beasts but you don't need that much hp on the street unless your looking to die or get pulled over by every cop you see.

300rwhp is a good goal i think that can be met N/A?

N/A no. The most that has been squeezed out with bolt ons is around 220rwhp. To get anymore power would start to push the dollar signs towards the cost of a turbo. The engine is really not that great for a n/a power plant. Like Dan said the S4 and the IS300 are probably close to the same size. The S4 appeals to me because it gets it down with n/a power. I like turbo cars but I love n/a power!

Love the car. I've always had a sweet spot in my heart for the IS.

Oh 220rwhp I thought it was more. Its been a while since ive been on my.IS to see current dyno graphs and such.

 

[:: Gusto ::]

Looks clean. You should get your stock rims painted black. That would look nice
