First mod
USDM tail lights

next was Injen

F sport rear sway

and some BC;s

ISS DES exhaust

Oh and i had a wald spoiler put on as well

and to top it off LED headlights


i guess these are just basic mods people do right
so wheres the twist?
its coming up

 

this is the part where the car gets intresting
i bought another 2011 ISF to replace my black 2009 ISF
whlie the black car was on the market to sell the white ISF got totaled in 3 weeks of ownership
bought the car back from insurance and walah reshelling began.



the original motor out of the 2009 was donated to my race car (as the race car had some motor issues)

after about 6 months, working on the car after work or when ever i can
i finished my ISF converting it into a full MY11 using MY09 chassis

whilst i was busy with the car
more parts were bought
Novel Headers

KW V3s

Cf steering wheel

Figs sussy bits



at this point i was so obssed in getting the car to immaculate condition i bought various bits and pieces from the stealership
New front end (guard bonnet bar)
New clips and bolts for the whole front end of the car
New badges
New seals
New door sills and door seals
New rear bar and boot

every single part of the car was taken apart and degreased and polished
and treated again
sorry i dont have much pics as it was a long painful process
But this is how shen stands now

MY11 Nav and MY 11 ML system
headlight work full OEM with MY11 cluster system
no error codes nothing since the car was converted 100%
using all MY 11 wiring harness and computers out of the MY11

 

so heres a basic run down of the car

2009 ISF with MY11 running gear
Figs arms and toe arms
superpro bushings
KW V3 coilovers (soon to be replaced Penske set up)
Weds 19" wheels
MY11 LSD and ABS+TCS+PCS system all intergrated in per original factory

Novel headers + ISS DES exhaust
Injen Intake
Ported and polished intake manifold

CF steering wheel
Think design CF bits

 

what a cliff hanger ahah. sub to see the "twist"

 

Damn! Impressive

 

Very Nice... damn those headers looks ill... however the pricing is bananas.... are they worth it?

 

i like this twist

 

well its worth it for me as its not a sikky or ppe like everyone else
and it does sounds different too
heres a video clip

people may argue that it sounds the same as ppe or sikky
but infact it doesnt
just have a look at the video and its all different

 

Pics of RACE CAR is what i am more interested in. To see what car used the IS-f engine and tranny

 

Those headers...
I'm also in for pics of your ISF-swapped racecar

 

ISF swapped race car?
its a genuine ISF though

Looks sick, can't go wrong with a clean black car.
