First thing to do would be to get the car put on a diagnostic reader. (not just an OBD one!! You would need one that read specific data i.e ABS)

I know that the LS series suffers from ECU issues but i don't think that reads the same for the IS. As with the LS it also brings on the VSC light. My gut feeling would be one of the rear ABS sensors starting to go don't. If this is happening the car would constantly be thinking that it has poor traction I.E wheel spinning and constantly trying to correct this. Could just be an air gap issue between the sensor and the pick up, but with the sensors not be mega money i would get the codes read and the change the sensor. (save messing about)
