Modded IS350 Wasted!

E90ice · 11-28-2007, 01:38 PM

IS350 had customs exhaust, brakes, tires, rims and not sure what else, but had a TMS performance badge or something like that.

My engine & tires were cold as I just started driving and the outside temp was like 39.

We both hit it when the light turned green.

So, I have DTC on and start in 2nd gear. I get on it pretty agressively, but as soon as I hit like 4-5000 rpm...rubber...and power cut off

....switch to 3rd gear...rubber again and power cut off

..finally switch to 4th gear and I'm a couple of cars ahead and shut it down.

Damn you Shiv and traction

, now I need to buy better tires.

I hate it when people try to race and the engines cold...

HyperM3 · 11-28-2007, 01:42 PM

Few cars ahead and your car shut down that many times? Kinda hard to believe.

BoostedE90 · 11-28-2007, 01:53 PM

It didn't look like this did it...

Wow, thats the first picture Ive seen of the ISF that actually makes it look unflattering.

BoostedE90 · 11-28-2007, 01:57 PM

I think it looks pretty ugly IMO! The ISF website makes it look pretty damn good, but pictures I've found on the internet... not so much!

Here another one I found that makes it look like the body kit was put on by a 16 year-old in his garage...

I don't think it was an IS-F....that car does 1/4mile under 13

...!

That and it isn't being released in the US until the Fall of 2008.

E90ice · 11-28-2007, 02:02 PM

Maybe it was an ISF.

Nothing would give me more pleasure than to spank one of those.

I think the is-f was tested 0 to 60 and 1/4 and edmonds said the 335i was faster in both...

greentea335i · 11-28-2007, 06:30 PM

no way//

I think he meant the isf being slower then the 335i in 0-60 and 1/4

sdwilly · 11-28-2007, 06:48 PM

As far as the IS-F goes here is a write up on it (Overall I rate it Meh).

ISF with nice upgrades are going to run low 12s someone said

mtndog · 11-28-2007, 08:17 PM

My C and D arrived today...here are their results. Sorry about the quality

E90ice · 11-28-2007, 08:42 PM

Thats faster than the new M3.
C&D always gets very good numbers that a lot of the other magazines never achieve.
