Woah, just saw this over at is300.net:

It's a GS400 4 litre V8 engine transplanted into the IS then with an added turbo and nitrous - she's currently kicking out 650rwhp when NOS is active - crazy stuff!

The installation doen't look very nice, but it is still impressive to get in there and working :D

who saisd it was Bollocks.................

i said im doubtfull of the 600+ hp quoted, anything can be made to look like its moving with computers and graphic design. The back ground is minimal and blured, and the rest can be done like i said with CG, all other pictures of this car are off it static!!, only one partial pic of it "Moving" does not mean it actually moved

how would the car steer with NO power steering fluid, and you would kinda think that the detail on the conversion, you would rember to add power steering fluid..especially for a photoshoot, i know for any shoots ive been on the atention to detail weeks before ensures everything is spot on...........

look for yourself.......im only going of what i see, not what im told

Just a thought,..... whenever we have done indoor car shows we have had to remove all flammable fluids from the car for insurance reasons. The car does look like it's at a show.

im on about the photoshoot pics..outdoors, not the High quality staged pics

[Colin P]

either way, it looks good!

i'm sure it's all legit (maybe not the hp but he does admit it's an estimate)

i'll keep an eye on the thread (when I remember) and hopefully we will get some better photos and results
