IS200/300 rear end differences
IS200/300 rear end differences
I know the diffs are different, so I'm assuming the prop and axles will need to change with it, as well as an IS300 speed sensor? Is the subframe the same?

if you want to swap the subframe the MK4 supra one fits with some tweaking.

16-08-2020, 02:55 AM #7Can I still use the is rear arms if I do that though? I'm assuming that means a Soarer subframe will fit?

16-08-2020, 03:03 AM #8not sure on the arms mate, would probably be best if you could get a frame with everything still attached, and there will be a bit of modifying to do on the mouting holes at both front and rear but anythings possible with the right tools and cash.

16-08-2020, 12:42 PM #9UK spec IS300 diff is good enough for my requirements, ~3.2 ratio which is okay. I've found a crash damaged sportcross that should do the trick. Not sure how hard it is to swap a subframe/axles etc though even if they do bolt right up.
