Turbo Lexus IS300 Videos (with GN in it)

[Cryptic]

There are some really cool videos of Lexus IS300's that people have turbo'd. The IS300 actually has a Supra motor under the hood so it responds very well to turbocharging.

The video on the bottom left-hand corner entitled, "1st S. Florida IS300 Meet" has a GN in it. If you look at the far left side of the video when the video is 2 minutes and 30 seconds into it a good looking GN is parked there.

Here's a direct link to the vid:

Though I do recommend checking them all out. The vid entitled, "Turbo IS300 in Santo Domingo" has a race against a Porche 996 Turbo and the IS300 wins !!

Very impressive.

I thought so. I knew they responded to turbocharging well, but before I witnessed that video if you had asked me who would win in a race: a turbo IS300 or a 996 Turbo; I would've gone with the Porsche. Who knew?

That's freakin' awesome. As I said, it's a clean looking car, and a famous car now, I suppose. All the ricers and turbo guys see it.

Must be odd to see your car like that, but at least after watching those videos you know the previous owners knew what they were doing with a turbo car, unless they used your car as a testbed for what not to do !

well that guy only had the car for a short time, he had it for a total of 5000 miles. i picked it up from him and it only had 55,414 on it... and at that time it was completly stock except for the car back exhaust and the k and n filter... so i dont think they really did much testing on the car...

I was being mostly facetious anyway. That's actually what I'm trying to pick up once I get enough money together; a more or less totally stock car. They're hard to find, especially at a good price.
