steviej Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 talk about your transplants!! The things you can do if you have the time and money. there is absolutely no wiggle room under that hood. So the 4.3L V8 fits in an IS? The big question is how fast is it? steveij Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-chargedIS340 Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 what i can say......... over the last 9 months, there has been a new IS model undergoing tests in Belgium, what i may be able to tell you is this car is currently in TTE. what i can also tell you is, there are no plans to put the is430 into production as the future trend of Lexus vehicles will not be for a sporty image................... however what i may be able to tell you is.....that v6 motors and 4 wheel drive has been tested at the nurenburg ring in germany, and that the is430 project was to test the engines capabilitys within the chassis..... the next IS has a very similer chassis layout :whistles: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
