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 laugh.gif )

discuss...
