It sucks that it would be easier to do this too and is 250 instead of the is 350. I love my is 350 but I do miss my is250 specially after I had done the LSD swap. Please keep us updated as I don't visit this forum very much nowadays but I'm glad I did today to see your thread

 

Have you done LSD on your 2011 IS350?

 

He previously had an IS250 with LSD than he has since replaced with an IS350 without LSD.

I'm glad my car's setup allowed me to keep the LSD with my new "IS350"

Thanks for clarifing for me Jeff, I was using speech to text on my phone and clicked on post before reviewing it.

BTW, I told my wife about your project and she loves the idea. She's always said she misses driving my old IS250 6MT and that the IS350 would have been a blast to drive with a manual gearbox.

 

Any updates on this? A functional IS350M/T would blow the infiniti G out of the water in many ways and just about any euro make in terms of reliability.

 

No updates yet. I can guarantee you I'll post about it when I do, lol.

ill just leave this here
my build from years ago
full upgraded to higher spec model
no ecu codes
also reflash ecu and raised to 7400 rpm

 

Great build how you like the extra 100hp from IS350 motor? Wonder if anybody ever covert IS350 to IS250 5 speed.

 

I've spent the last month or so dealing with various electrical issues, some to deal with differences between the ECU and the car and so on. It was a bit more specific than I was expecting in some cases, but as of last night I finally figured everything out and hope to get the car completely functional in the next couple of weeks, just waiting for a few parts to arrive from Japan and the USA. Also need to send another ECU for reprogramming as the first one didn't work properly with the rest of the car.

That said, during my testing and troubleshooting I managed to put approximately 1,000km on the car. It's even more fun than I thought it would be. I've driven a few cars with the 2GR-FSE including the IS, GS and RC and mine is by far the most fun. Love the manual transmission and the extra rev-ability that the 2GR has over the 4GR almost (almost) makes you forget it's got a dual mass flywheel.

It's really fun to drive, really. Though I drove for the first couple of weeks without ABS, VSC or TRAC and then a few weeks without some other stuff including cruise, but it's all coming together now.

RIP: My tires.


Sorry it's so dirty!
