i ask because the is200's are coming down in price, any idea on how easy the conversion is? some jap models have a 2jz-ge dont they

conversion is easy. The standard motor is a 1fge which is almost exactly the same size as a 1j/2j. Basically like doing an rb conversion on a silvia or 180sx. Plenty of people in Aus have done the conversion. Its not exceptionally cheap but neither is it unaffordable (depending on your budget). You can find a lot of info on altezza forums, i'm looking at doing it sometime in the future.

cool :D before my 33 i used to have a mx83 cressida, really wanted to do a 1j convo but didn't have the facilities or the time :D but i will soon :(

i had thought about just getting an aristo and thats the hard work already done lol.. big bigger than the is200 tho

yea they're too big for my liking. Shape doesn't appeal to me. I like the looks of the is200, with its weight and center of gravity it handles really well and its easy to mod, its fairly new. Plus a standard 1/2j makes it a pretty quick car.

weak big post there lee...youve lost your mojo :P

oh really???

that wasnt a big post attempt Isacc.......

but sinse you want it so bad!!!!!!!!!!

nice big post there lee.... i feel so satisfied *goes off to smoke cigarette

lee in that post u said "oh well i hope its big enough", do u say that often? specially to ur missus? :D

Lol.....

i'm a bit worried about you shane!!

oh BTW can i get my Card Back??

yeah but are they as good as the bmw 3 series?

better imo, i was looking at 325i's before I got the is200. Suppose it depends on what model 3 series your talking about though eg. e36, e46, 318i, 325i, 328i etc? That and whats important to you in a car.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
