i hope there are not to much pics sorry for my english

Very nice

Seen this in the flesh.........very nice.......the normal air filter is there to make it "look" normal for a cursory glance from a policeman (TUV)

yes i love the original touch in Austria, you have no chance to drive legal, you need for each part documents from TUV, or you pay over 3000 € for the first test is to much money.

Excellent pics of a stunning car matey

Seems to be a lot of effort

All the best,
Jamie

Maybe you might want to join a few of us @ the Ring around Easter time

Looks great mate, lovely job you've done and the airfilters a great idea.

Stav

Looks great mate, well done.

Well done mate, looks very nice, you have put a lot of work into it

Just looking again i love the way the Gauges are fitted, look awesome.

Stav

Thanks Mates!



great idea! is this on the nürnburgring in germany?



thanks but it is not easy to seal the box, because of the boost. The position of the apexi filter is from RoadRash



i started the project last year in august and it is still not finished next steps are other injectors(lying on my table already), modify the pipes and mount the Eibach Anti-Roll-Kit. Maybe the original Toyota side skirts in the spring.

are the videos working?

Haha nice summary of your turbo-modification,
just a few pics and not 30 pages to read



Awsome ride anyway and still enough to adjust on that setup!
And it's great that some pieces of my destroyed Lexus survived and have found another nice place.


And this setup is more street-legal than mine...... at least for looking

Great car!
Tell the guys about your radio-modification!
Boergy has installed an aftermarket-radio behind the original console
I think it was a Panasonic?

yes, a Pansonic Radio with Touchscreen. but i do this never again in the winter, i chance the resistors for the led lights, currently are the lights too dark.



















the major funktion operate with the original buttons (switch track, switch album, volume, menu, source...)

i love original look

Thats a great job matey but looks like so much effort.

Looks good though mate.


Stav

great looking project you have there and will be watching this space in the future

Very nice, i take my hat of to you as to any one that takes on a job like you have just done, and i bet you are each time you go out in it....top job you have done there.

Thanks @ Fast_Jap i bought my IS for over 6 years and i love each second to work and drive with him.

Today, i made a video of my exhaust system with a camera tripod mounted .

at the weekend, i opened my second Inlet manifold, and i see small pipes from the volume under the throttle body to the inlet-flange and the volume before. i think, it is not bigger than 5cm x 2,5cm very small for 3 cylinder!

i modify the manifold to have 5cm x5cm or more and close after this and build in with my new Injectors (213ccm)

i think, this is a problem for low agility and slow response characteristic of the engine. I drive a round with the IS300 from RoadRash and the engine are very fast rev up. (i hope you understand this what i mean). The inlet manifold are bigger and the pipes to each cylinder are bigger.





first pic after little modify to see more

great car,great read and the rear boot spoiler,is it from a honda

Hy!

Thanks!

The rear spoiler is from Lester in Italy. www.lester.it and is made for the IS.

greets

Tom´S

There is a chap who has a honda next door to me he has the same spoiler as that as you say Spike... but then you can bolt anything to your car if you want but always check the length etc b4 buying

looking good m8

Hy!

her a video from my IS in the snow is funny with summer tires

Hy!

Last Friday, i was with my IS on the Dyno

227hp on the flywheel and 288Nm is a good run with 0,5bar and original engine.

Dynorun Video



Next steps: new clutch, new tyres, bigger intercooler, modified downpipe with new katalysator, maybe a new boost controller

greets

Boergsn

Wow, that pretty damn good. Do you still have the standard pistons and rods in the engine?

As Cho said is that standard pistons and rods?

impressive figures for 0.5bar, well done.

yes, the pistons and rods are original. Only the intake manifold is modified, 250ccm Injectors with original petrol system (3,5bar pressure) in the spring, i test again with maybe 0,65bar. i will test with the new intercooler and other things. i think 240-245hp are possible.

have to ask about the gauges mod i take it thats custom ?? if so how hard was it how long did it take

excellent car love the mod with the factory radio

Thanks! i need 2 weeks, every day at night to make the gauge-pod. i have the old gauge pod for sell, but you need a good painter and the original dash box for a good look.

The gauge-pod was self made. I changed this pod to a original pod and installed a Zeitronix System. The Radio new painted and the brightness is passed from the buttons to the original light in the IS. her new pics.







the Apexi SAFC II and the SSBC was installed in the cup Holder

5 weeks ago..i installed the EBV Premium Discs and Green Stuff Pads on the front axle





2 weeks ago, i deinstalled my music system (26kg) and i will change the high of the spring cups on the koni damper and i see on the right rear side, a broken H&R spring! one week later were a a set of new h&R springs installed.





anti-theft device


new springs



the car drives better as afore, with new springs and lower weight on the rear axle, a new feeling on the road

Looks great mate, but i dont understand what you did with the inlet manifold. could you explain a bit more.

Stav

hy Stav,

some posts above i wrote the work



original have the IS a smalle pipe from the throttle-body inlet to the head inlet (i hope this the correct words) for 3 cylinders a small pipe with max 5x2,5cm! after the mod, the intake manifold is a comparable with a supra TT intake manifold. this have the thottle body, a big volume und 6 seperate pipes to each cylinder.

her a picture from a Supra intake:



the engine spools faster up with the turbo, before this mod, the boost was on the gauge and a little bit later comes the acceleration, with the mode, the boost comes ande the engine accelerate in the same time

i hope you understand a little bit of my discription of the mod *g*

I understand now, thank you.

Stav

hi!

her a video from the inside the car by the dyno-test

Link Video inside

greets

Tom

Boergy, didnt you post the whole thread with pics, vids and the other diagrams of the dyno-runs?

Here it is

Your car is pulling much more than roadrash´s standard IS300, very good

HY!

I rebuilt my IS to a standard IS and sell the Turbokit with the exhaust system, all Pipes and the FCD, Apexi SAFC II and the Blitz SSBC.

my failure was, i driven a GS430 S16 the car is great, from the first moment, i was in the car, i was happy no other car from Lexus can this have considered a while to change the IS turbo to a GS V8. i think, its the right choice.

Next week, i take the last photos and after this, the rebuilt beginns!
