Makes me miss my IS300 a little, very clean. Only downside is traction in that thing.

Yeah there is definately a traction issue with the IS300 and boost! I'm currently looking into buying a supra to take care of those issues.

Thanks for all the comments guys!

why does it have traction problems??? not enough sidewall on the rims isn't helping too much :lol:

it doesn't have an IRS does it? It can't be thatttt bad????

I don't see why a supra would have much better traction than an Is300 other than having a much stronger chassis and years of suspension research.

Oook, I might have proved my own point. I'm still wondering why the is300 has traction problems though, is it just reeeeally light in the back?

The rear end bushings are to soft, axles are too small, hard to fit a decent sized slick in the rear. If you chop up the rear subframe and put the supra diff/axles and solid bushings then you will be able to get a "decent time" down the track.
