Man...I almost feel sorry for your IS.

You MUST go get a manual beater to learn. Learning to drive manual on such an exotic IS300 is asking for some very expensive lessons. Not to mention, it can possibly cost you wrecking the whole car, your life and others..... Playing with a machine like that without the necessary driving skills is just asking for trouble. You are AT LEAST 3mths away from really appreciating and safely driving that car as learning to drive manual is NOT something that can be done overnight or even a few weeks....especially a beast like the one you have.

IMO, the best upgrade you can do is improving your own driving skills. I think you should really rethink the direction you are headed in. One day....you WILL enjoy the manual tranny. Until then....get practicing!
Hey, when it comes back from PHR, it might have an auto tranny in it instead of the 6 speed.
