Nice upgrade from the civic. Love the red, gunmetal or black wheels would look fresh on that, just my opinion. good luck with the car and welcome to the club.

looks great, good milage. what are your starting mods if your doing any? I would recommend suspension, lip, grill, and headlight mods to start.

The red looks good. Looking forward to seeing what wheels you'll be getting. Good luck with your mods.

Sorry I don’t have a IS200 or 300 but was wandering if I put blocks in the back of the car above the rear axial if it would help in the winter? But this is what i drive now drive a IS250

Nice AR, a smoked 3 bar grill w/ red emblem would compliment that nicely IMO

Will do, they are used but I can tell you Honda guys swear by them, my friend had them on his hatch and I loved the way it rode.

I loved the em1, it was a pretty quick car and fun to drive, but I've always wanted an is300, I'm debating wether to go jdm or Trd with the lip and grill. Hopefully boosting when I get my income taxes

yea I need to go ahead and replace a few parts on the suspension so I figured why not order the coilovers and replace it all together.
