So, new midpipe set up.. I honestly can't tell which one is better. If you guys have some inputs, let me know.
Even with a dslr, the video doesn't do it any justice at all.. Think I need an external mic adapter.. No wonder there's not that many videos. Sounds kinda the same in video but different in real life. Think I might've just wasted a buncha time and money picking this up

Giving these visors out for free. I got them for free but I don't need another pair of visors. These aren't seamless like JDM visors, but free is free. Locals only (San Jose, CA). Not shipping. Will need new double sided tape. Couldn't find a brand name and it's kinda dirty in some places with very light scratches. Very mint condition. Come through in your IS250/IS350/ISF. First local to reply to the thread stating you want it, gets it.

if only I lived locally, let me know if you change your mind on shipping. Nice build on the other hand, shows what minor changes can make a big difference.

Thanks man. Exactly. Just a couple of simple mods can really change the car overall. Not exactly looking to ship it because I don't want to deal with packaging

Couple of updates since it's been a while. So I bought an F-Sport Steering wheel, Invidia mipipe, Megan Racing headers, and a true cold air intake. Blacked out roof. Wasn't exactly planning on picking up an F-Sport exhaust but a local friend was selling it at a good price so I couldn't resist. Other reason was because I had a buyer for Greddy SE Exhaust in just a couple hours after post. Thinking about selling the F-Sport exhaust because the piping hangs low and I'm not sure if my desired rear fitment will work out.


Last picture of Greddy SE Exhaust. Loved the mufflers


Invidia midpipe


Megan Racing Headers

Ohh ya I was looking for a wald rear for the longest and I almost gave up and decided to get a Jp rear instead. But one came up all of a sudden! Ya it's pretty loud. I'm going to see if they can hang the piping higher. If not, going to go custom a bit.

A couple of small updates. I feel like my car is pretty much complete right now besides some wheels. Over this weekend, got the custom true cold air intake installed, K Break sun shade a jun-tw roof spoiler. 6k led DRL is getting shipped this Friday along with Megan rear camber kit. Only need the Megan front upper control arms and a white knot to complete everything I want for this car (for a while). I'm going to update you when I get the camber arms and DRL and then there should be an update on wheels.

And I got the sun shade because everyone knows of the sticky dash issue relating to years 06' - 10' models

Possible future mods after the wheels:
Ebay ISF tails
Kazz Grill
JDM visors
Custom arms for more camber
New side skirts



Been thinking of a way to raise the f sport exhaust piping to go lower in the rear.
