I cannot seem to play the video but one critical figure seems to be missing ....at what RPM is the increased torque available?
It's a screen shot so I'd be very surprised it did allow you to watch the video haha, here is the link
There's a few other vids of is200s in standard form or close but this is the only one with power figures torque and bhp in the description.

Suspension Meister R coilovers, Eibach ARB's, full Superpro poly bush kit, front Cusco strut brace, B & M short shift, lsd from sport model

Full history, part Lexus, part Japanese Tuning specialist.. Alignment by WIM. All modification work carried out by specialists..
Only 79,000 miles, Just serviced with new NGK plugs
Message me if anyone interested. I am in no hurry to sell so stupid offers wont even have the courtesy of a reply. Over £7k spent over the years to buy and have fitted and set up. .Looks like a sleeper car as has no bodykit or spoilers and sounds nice but not loud especially on full boost with turbo/wastegate.
Come on you know you want to, lol
And you only live up the a419 from me so would be ideal for me to collect 🙁

The following na setup may get you some where near 200bhp.
Port and Polished head apparently the exhaust side is quite restricted)
Head skimmed to raise compression
Ignition Timing adjusted
Decent ram intake (not just as a cone filter attached to sopipes.)
Straight through exhaust
Uprated cams
Lightened single mass flywheel
Piggy back ecu and remap
Good service with decent engine oil.
But this setup with parts alone will be very pricey. even if you got everything quite cheap
-
But going back on topic, from nearly years worth of research keeping the 1gfe na and gaining decent power will you most expensive option. swapping for r200 engine is probably more efficient than tuning the 1g in my opinion, some will say "just get a is300" is300 average around 3 to 6k still! picked my is200 up for 550,
Forced induction is the best way of getting your money's worth.
Me personally if I had 2 to 3 k spare, I'd either go with the r200 swap or turbo /supercharge my block. or buy a mk6 type r or mk7 accord type s but then loose rwd
-
Just the answer I was looking for hahaha, you will probably here this all time, but if I did have the funds I'd rip your hand off! not only is it in the colour I want but it's turbod and uv done handling mods as well!
-
That's what I was thinking but didn't want to seem rude. What mpg do you get out of that compared to standard

1gfe 300bhp with a supercharger???

Why can't I view pictures on some threads? This one for example

Lovely, any more updates?

Washed and waxed it Friday night,..... Yes night and it's filthy again, thank you muddy British roads!

Black paint work is high maintenance as it shows dirt and imperfections well. So avoid unless you look after your vehicle and keep it clean

Updated :-)

Random lmao

Nice to see a good car like the is200 being rescued they really are a nice car still love the look
I know, iv always wanted one, so there's no better way then to start by reviving potential.

Make sure you change the idler and tensioner as when they wear they make the belt run at a slight angle and it wears out very quickly there has been a few reports on here about it
Don't worry mate, everything in that area is going to be replaced, as I plan to keep the car now, I will be spending a fair bit on it to get it near mint.
-
Nice, the cambelt I'd being done mid January, along with a major service, my mate is going to do the cambelt and I'm going to do the service, if I get time this weekend I'm going to attempt to Polish up the pulleys as they look horrible
