Old Member, popping in to say hello

Hi guys,

Been a long time since I posted, so long in-fact I thought it best to post a newbie thread here!

I used to own a couple of IS200's a grey one and a silver one. But they ended up failing, and being beyond economical repair.

Currently running an Accord CL9 which is the K24 engine Type S. Not as hardcore as the R but still pretty quick. Done some upgrades to it, so will start a build thread and get some pics up. I know you guys like them.

IS300 Sports Cross (The new daily)

by FOSSIL FUELS, 16-11-2023, 08:03 AM

Well just before Christmas I decided the civic wasn't for me... I tried giving it my own touch with wheels type r front end and shocks and springs fir better handling... But it just wasn't me.

So I went out and started car hunting again... I wanted the sporty feeling of the IS200 just with more power... So I spoke to a few people with supercharged 1GFE engines... Sounds good... Looks cool... But couldn't find out that suited me.

So I started looking in to IS300's went to see a few... Some just have stupid amounts of milage... Some were clearly written off but not gone through insurance... And others were water damaged during the floods a couple of months ago...

But then one day when scrolling through auto trader I found an IS300 SPORTS CROSS, full service history from new, only 2 owners that were friends, 4 original keys (including the valet key) cambelt done last year and under 100k with the Tiptronic box in it.

Went to go see it and bought it straight away here's some pics.











I couldn't help myself... I have already started buying bits for it... Clear centre lights for the boot lid.

And a carbon fiber bonnet

Can we set up a wik to capture some of the knowledge imparted over the years? I can imagine this being particularly useful for is200 owners
