what i was originally thinking was saving up and doin a shit load of custom work to shove in a skyline engine mated to a six-speed manual and do just about everything possible to make it the fastest, craziest sleeping IS 300 ever.... lemmie know what ya think... (yes i realize i'm insane)

Hell, if top secret can put an RB in a Supra, you can put it in the IS. Just takes money.

Thats not a Supra motor... Ive seen that car in person at Auto Tuner... Its just got a GTE short block, but its got an SC300 head... Only like 2 people have put the GTE into an IS 300...needless to say, its bad ass..

But back to the kid talking about the IS 300... you can do some relatively cheap mods and get alotta power out of the stock motor, a nice catback (hks, greddy, apex'i) and an SRT intake and piggy back ecu can give you like 25rwhp or something like that. And 25 extra ponies at the rear wheels will make a nice difference.

Thats a supra motor in an IS300..
