Hi Everyone!

Just recently picked up an ISF after about 4-6 months of searching and just figured I'd make a post and say hello.

I've already gone through a bunch of posts and learned some new stuff already. It's great to see that this forum is so active. I'm on a forum for MR2's and it's pretty much a ghost town because of Facebook (which I don't use).

She is an 09 in Ultrasonic Blue Mica with Alpine interior and 66k miles.

What a clean color combo you have on your IS-F dude

Great to have another fellow forum member on CL!

All you need now is some new shoes

Ah, so you're the gent that picked this one up! A coworker of mine wanted to bring me along to look it over, until he learned it was pending sale.

Congrats and welcome!

Thanks guys!

It's always nice to hear that someone else wanted it haha. I had one get snatched up from me about a week before so I put a deposit down as soon as I saw it.

The SW20 is my fun car. She would blow the F away haha. She makes 464whp/434wtq @ 26PSI (200whp/200wtq @ 2800rpm) on a 2.3L (5SGTE) with a Garrett GTX3067. Motor is built to go to about 750whp if I decide to keep going but she is already fast enough as she currently sits. Would just need more fuel, bigger turbo and either a trunk mount IC or A2W.

Congrats and Welcome!

Nice combo you have there, bet the MR2 is a handful with those kind of numbers!

I had a stock n/a G Limited MR2 a while back, managed to do a full 360 pulling out of a junction with little provocation on a wet/cold morning! Lol. :eek:

Enjoy the F, and keep us posted on your progress.

Pete
