LOL good ish khanvict! (i fixed it for you) and your right.. how many supercharged IS250's are there? ESPECIALLY in miami?

maybe 2... hopefully

& ON BOTTLE

 

BUT if you think about it SUPRA'S ARE RARE

 

Lexus sold more 2IS in 2006 than Toyota imported Supras from '93 to '98 by a factor of three. Supras are rare for mass produced cars. If you want really rare, try JZA80L-ALFVZA. Hard top, 6 speed, TT. Less than 400 imported. I love mine.

 

There is a fine line between.. WOW THAT's RARE! and wow... that is just stupid..

If you want a IS350 engine, just get a IS350 to begin with. It is not worth the money.

 

explain yourself! LOL chu talkin bout me?

 

LOL! true. but there's also a fine line between.. "oh look there goes another 350" (just like all the others) and "damn.... look at that thing! musta wasted alot of money on it! but it sure does look like something you don't see everyday!"

 

^ hahaha... so i'm guessing TWO people are hopefully getting SC's for their IS250 in miami? is that what was hinted about MORE hp then other 250's in another thread? lol interestinggg

 

can we stay on the topic plz??
im guessing the wiring and everything would be simple?
and the 350 engine would be a bolt on? since they both come from the same chassis

 

I don't think it's impossible, a friend of mine dropped an LS1 (the one on holden's) on a nissan patrol(manual) and didn't have to change the nissan's gearbox.

so it's not impossible, but it will cost a fortune but if that's not a problem for you then go for it.

 

it would have to be into an automatic 250 becuase the manual wont bolt up...

 

yes.. thanks rob..
im in the process of selling my manual is250 atm and getting a top spec IS250 auto.

 

I wouldn't be so quick to sell my car before you've done some REAL research. Like getting price quotes on importing the engine, transmission, wiring harnesses, etc. Not to put down ClubLexus but the best the majority of us can do is speculate because this has never been attempted before (at least to my knowledge).

In other words, look a little harder before you leap or you may find yourself in the midst of a very expensive swap with no choice but to spend more money to make it work.

 

If your looking for a bit more power just bolt a bottle on and go... it will take you a half a day not an entire year to get right.

 

I've done many many engine swaps over the years and to hear that people are actually looking to swao an engine for as little as 300 hp. makes me laugh.
I can understand being different , but to be honest I would never even think about an engine swap for less then 450-500hp.

 

thanks for your advice there *****..
i'v done many swaps over they years too
randing from hondas' toyota's nissans' even mitsu's in hyundai's
i dont think this will be a hard swap as hey both come from the same chassis and same serise of cars..
most of u guys drive 350's lol
be nice to us guys who can only buy 250 cuz lexus Aus is a tool
