I test drove a few is300s when I was looking to buy one but i could not find one with a manual transmission..... I love those cars! But then I found an Audi A4 black on black, 6 spd manual, AWD and turbo'd 2.0...... one test drive and I was hooked! Factory governs at 136 around 5200 rpm in 6th... I hit 142 with it down a huge hill but thatll change once I get the tuning software for it and get the hx40 upgrade done. then she will really scream!

I cant wait for some snow down here!

Naw Id keep up on the paint, the advantage of having easy touch up paint lol.
But ill probably wait til i wheel it anyways.

twistedtoy92 · « **Reply #464 on:** Dec 24, 2012, 10:15:22 AM »

I agree, get it wheelin first! Drivetrain is first priority in my book. My runner is ugly as sin right now but once its running and ready to roll it will deserve a fresh paint job

Ya'll have seen what ive put into this.

THK Matt · « **Reply #468 on:** Dec 27, 2012, 03:47:02 PM »

the front does this \-/ so to speak. and i have never noticed til today. which means all of my measurements are off. and I will not deal with a bent frame again.

needs to be gone. need some prices thrown at me.

tgmaul88 · « **Reply #469 on:** Dec 27, 2012, 03:50:57 PM »

86bobbedtoy · « **Reply #472 on:** Dec 27, 2012, 05:05:40 PM »

Im not gonna put my son in this vehicle or my gf or myself. And feel safe with both frame rails tweaked. I do not have the tools, time, space, or reaources to do a frame swap or fix the current one correctly. As it is its like pullin teeth to weld a simple mount on. So its up for sale and im currently looking to trade in my focus for a 3rd-4th gen Tacoma ex cab or dbl cab.
