I’m from Brisbane

I have a hks ssm on my isf, will upload some clips tonight if youd like? im running ppe headers, custom straight through mid section to the hks ssm. It has quite a loud raspy sound casually driving and on decel and is quite vocal on wot lol

Older style or the newer style?

The market for is250s is a dead market, soo many on car sales as it is. I had a 08 x manual, mint paint with heaps of tasteful mods with 205ks, lexus history etc. Ended up stripping some of the mods and just left coilovers in and is350 brake upgrade. Sold as is for 12k as is to a family member, had trade in offers of under 10k but thats how it is. Given the age of yours low teens would attract alot more buyers.

Yep

No, hes always been quite conservative with how hes tuned all my cars over the years especially knowing how I drive them lol

The mrs racing at motive half mile last year at stanthorpe

anywhere between 10-12 on average with normal/ spirited driving around 15 on track on long trips its dropped into the high 7s Tuned by James at BPS

You have a part number or link?

On a positive note, highly rate the nitto nt05 245/35 and 275/30. I do a fair amount of track mornings a year and always drive the car quite spiritly and still get a good 10,000 ks outta them. They are classed as a semi and have awesome dry grip, wet isn't too bad overall. But if you want more ks out of your tyres don't get these as they're quite soft.

Whatever you end up choosing make sure you check the load and speed ratings on them. Could void your insurance in an event, last time I got pulled over they had nothing they could get me on, desperate enough they checked the tyre placard lol

Even with the cats gone the stock headers are restrictive but 360hp is a good effort though, it would have been more worth while getting the headers followed by the tune. But comes down to whether one can justify spending close to 3 grand for 30-40hp gain is another thing.

yeah they do tend to have happier dynos over there as well as alot of downhill 1/4 miles lol highest ive ever seen outta mine was 296kw, came off the dyno back in 2015 with around 285-290kw and went back recently for a check up and still pulling the same figures. All dynos and operators are different in many ways but mph always tells the truth.

got your slip?

For nsw peeps that are interested, happy to meet as far as coffs harbour for sale on full kit.

No one will dip into the 11s without boost or atleast changing the rear ratio to a is350 or similiar. Ive been following Isf times for years now and that seems to be how it is. Even over here im still yet to hear of anyone dipping under a 12.5 between my wife and i we have ran ours down in excess of 50 times trying various techniques, setups etc. Best we have found was using a 245/40/18 mt et street still normal weight landed us a 12.59@116 but generally depends on temps and track conditions. As for 60 ft times the lowest we have squeezed was a 2.0. If these had a slightly higher stally they would be a weapon off the line

I have a spare drivers side ppe header up for grabs, was originally just rubbing on the steering shaft but we modded it enough to clear it. Then ppe sent me their revised RHD drivers side. So if your interested in it make an offer

Cats are over rated lol

sorry for late reply, these seats were in my wifes is250 which i replaced back with the stock seats when it sold. still for sale
