rwd...yes another thread, new option? Options

[playr158]

Ok, so i'm the crazy mod whore. I like things that waste money and are more than unfeasible.

practical discussion:

for a RWD setup. who has experience with IS300s.
I have been thinking that their rear end might jus work.
$250 for a cross memeber
$300 for a diff
$100 for a drive shaft
then you need control arms, ect. but you get a rear end brand new for lets say under a grand including everything
size/dimensions/shape issues?

they have the toyota typical 3-point strut hats so they potentially up top could slide right in (as if that was a major obstacle )

discuss...

[the] suprica was far from all OEM parts .... that entire front was made up of aftermarket pieces sans headlight and hood.

Bondo is technically aftermarket, I guess

Bondo, Fiberglass, invader front bumper, Bomex front bumper, Z3 style VIS fenders, Invader rear bumper, invader side skirts, Aerospeed coilovers, custom catback exhaust, TWM short shifter, velox wheels......damn all that looks oem to me?!

But /off-topic discussion

theory was IS300 rear subframe & accessories, reasonably within size limits ect.
