Broo this is SUUUCH a sick video I'm vicariously living my is350 owner ship life with this vid. Love how you showed how the lip was installed and the program to turn off DRL absolutely mint! Liked**
love your tree fiddy bro. Makes me want to get more mods on mine. I want an exhaust so bad lol. I am thinking about doing the airbox mod to drill a hole. have you seen guys doing it? got any tips on size and placement? i want the most flow and sound. i love that deep roar from the fsport box
I assume the wheels are R716 18x8.5 front and 18X9.5 back My question is what size tires did you put on them and do you have any spacer? any Rubbing? Thank you and great video!!
Do you know any mods, to speed up the shifting ? I mean you pull the paddle, and 2-5 sec later it shifts... On the ISF its instant, and i believe, its just a software thing.
ISF is the much better 8 speed ZF box, one of the first cars the use it I believe, now popularised in many modern cars over a DCT. Where the Is250/350 is just a 'good 6speed auto' for fuel economy and luxury..
@@brent1835 it was an in house gearbox from what I've read in the past it's not a dual clutch it's a normal torque converter that has full lock up after 2 gear when mashing the go faster pedal
J Grant Many IS owners have this problem including myself, go into your dealership it might be under warranty still , I have an 09 currently waiting on them to be shipped and then I’m getting new a dash .
I figured this is more a montage of all the mods so I focused more on music and clips, and not really focused on the talking. All the videos have full versions on my channel for more info
your screen digitizer has gone wrong I had the same problem was quoted at the dealer “that I needed to replace the whole head unit quoted over 1500” got it fixed for $150 3 years warranty.
All that money and you could’ve just bought a 2012 with f sport package. I’m gonna be letting mine go soon starfire pearl 74k miles if anyone’s interested
@@MartyMotoring Hi Marty I saw a set of vland headlights and tails combined for like 700 on ebay. Just keep an eye out. I had tails on my ISF and they were awesome. Sold the car last year and bough a RCF
KB L Nice! That’s a good deal. I have the tails now, got them for a deal a while back. I’ve had these headlights since 2017 and they are great. Running Auxbeam RGB bulbs and I’ve heard mixed reviews with the VLANDs headlights. So I probably won’t be buying new headlights for now lol
JoaKing Z I like my F sport with a resonator delete but the DNA Motoring wasn’t bad. Invidia Q300 is well known, same with Manzo and Megan racing exhausts
Marty, looking to upgrade my suspension, just curious-why did you go with the shocks/struts vs coil overs? .I want to drop my front down about 1” or 1.5”. The gap between tire and fender in front is 2” and the back is 1.25”. What do you suggest? Thanks
At the time I did it for simplicity and cost. Now I’m running coilovers and they are a little better overall. If you don’t care about adjustment or ride quality, springs are fine!
Stock numbers are engine horsepower which is different than wheel horsepower. With the 25% drivetrain loss, it’s calculated at 253 wheel hp stock. I got 274hp to the wheels, which means whatever I’ve done has added wheel hp, and makes the engine closer to 330hp.
Hope you don't mind some frank assessment of your situation with the IS350. Seems like you did a lot of unnecessary mods but never took care of the basics like fixing the check VSC light. This must have been a constant niggle in your mind thus spoiling your overall enjoyment of the car and never letting you be fully satisfied in your IS350. I suspect that constant dissatisfaction played a part in your final decision to sell your car. I always try to abide by the maxim : basic fundamentals first and the basic fundamental in enjoying your car ownership is proper maintenance of your car. Hope you don't repeat the same mistake with your next project car.
I fixed it like a month later with a new wheel bearing assembly. Car drove the same but the light was off. I wanted to sell it anyway, as I made the decision a while back and was working towards that point. Was time to move on. I always take car of the basics first, so I can enjoy it stock. Lots of people don’t though. My cars usually have everything in perfect working order because I’m OCD lol
I cant believe you put that sensen garbage on a Lexus. I bought a set for my beater prius and when they arrived i wouldn't even consider mounting them. One was only half filled with oil and collapsed halfway thru the stroke. Btw the track should spray a water box for you to burn out in. If theres none I wouldn't even burnout, too much traction you risk wrecking the drivetrain.
The Sensen have held up over the last 2 years but definitely not as good as OEM being a cheaper aftermarket part. And I did hit the water box that day lol it was before I knew how to do a burnout in it. Open diff results in a one wheel peel a lot, unfortunately
Well it was $10,000 about 3 years ago. And mine is worth about $7500 now. Many parts I got discounted, sponsored or were just cheap. I am barely modded compared to most Lexus IS lol. You never get the money back from mods.
The music is too loud
can’t go wrong with a lexus i have a 2012 es with 175k runs like it just came off the lot. it’s crazy how reliable they actually are
Man the transformation is wild
Right in time to fill my Lexus IS needs lol

It's a beautiful car to modify. I love the clean looks rather than ricer
Awesome job you’ve done with the mods on your IS! I love the exhaust sound too👍🏻🔥
Aight! Thanks to this video, I’m getting the 2011 Lexus IS 350
Turned out nice bro!
How much in total for all mods have you spent?
Guess we’ll never know
Came along way awesome 👊
We need more videos like this
I like the demon look of the Lexus IS.
3 years i less then 11 minutes great work
I like your vids keep them comin
This was great! nice transformation!
What is it about these!?!? I’m obsessed but I don’t know why. It’s not the prettiest car…not the fastest but I’m in love. 🤷🏼♂️

Watching from the time that you had installed F interior bits
Any tips on how to get the blacked out trim around the grille? Looks so much better
What is your tire and wheel setup? By the way nice 3fifty!
That is b e a utiful!!!
nice vid =p to bad i missed the recall for the dash and door panels =/
You can still get the dash and panels til June I believe. Give your dealer a call. 2008 and newer
Do either of you know if that recall is only for the older gens? Do the newer models suffer from this?
@@farley9255 2 gen
@@is4life862 thank you bro.
@@is4life862 Did they have this problem in the UK ? As mine is a 2006 and don't have any sticky dash or door cards ?

282186059273 that's the item number for the grille on eBay. Cheers!!
Why no LSD? That’s one of the first things I would have thought would bring it to life!
Good video but I didn't like the music it was distracting when you're talking

Love your lexus marty! You wouldn't happen to know if these wheels would also fit on the 2008 IS250 AWD, would you?
Respect to you Marty. Jah Rastafari
I recently got a 2006 Lexus Is350. And the center touchscreen thing isn’t working. How can i fix this?
Sorry man i have no idea
Is the screen completely black or is it still on but isn’t functioning when you touch it?
oXumeR it doesn’t work when i touch it.
your screen digitizer has gone wrong
I had the same problem was quoted at the dealer “that I needed to replace the whole head unit quoted over 1500” got it fixed for $150 3 years warranty.
oXumeR fuck.
I wanna buy one thats been taken care of like this..
All that money and you could’ve just bought a 2012 with f sport package. I’m gonna be letting mine go soon starfire pearl 74k miles if anyone’s interested
You still have it for sale ?
Bro, what version of window visors did you use? I saw it installed on your ride near the end of your vid, but you didn't mention it. They look nice!
What did you do to the paint that it's so nice??? I need to know!. My paint looks shit. I have a 2009 acura TL black
There are still scratches and imperfections. Just have it detailed once a year and wash it by hand
The IS-F cluster swap - was that just a plug and play swap?
I have not done a cluster swap. I left that clip in there for fun - that's my brother's ISF.
Supercharge it ;)
Way to fuck with the reliability
Nah that's small dick energy
why tf would you supercharge it
@@IIOctaneII why tf wouldn't you...... Everyone's different dumb dumb
hey where is your video about the bluetooth adapter
What rotors are you running?
What kind of repairs have u done? And maintenance would like to see that.
All those videos are on my channel :) But mostly just the alternator, oil changes and cleaning the throttle body as far as maintenance goes
How much was it to dyno your car ? I’m looking forward to doing it to my is250
It was a special for $50
Marty Motoring lucky
What front struts did you use? My front passenger side struts just started leaking and I am researching into which ones to get.
I answered my own question. You said sensen struts at 2:34
But another question. How would you compare the sensen struts to the OEM struts?
I would say the Sensen are not as good and I think they are failing now. KYB or OEM tokico are probably the best.
Hi, how are you?
Could you mention what performance lexus is giving you?
both on the road and in the city? in miles per gallon?
Thank you
I get like 21 city and 26 highway, 23mpg combined
Hey Marty, what were the wheel specs on the Option Lab wheels
18s! 8.5 front 9.5 rear and 35mm offset
Not sure if I missed it but how do you get the F logo in your gauge cluster?
I have not done a cluster swap. I left that clip in there for fun - that's my brother's ISF.
Are those brake calipers stock? Or aftermarket cause I love them and want them for my car
They are stock and I just painted them

Does anybody know If the 2015 and up generation, the base model come with leather or pleather? I can't find his info anywhere.
J Pizel it’s leatherette material looks and feels like the real leather but it’s not lol it is more durable though which is a plus
Gotta make the vegans happy lol
Bro let's talk money. I want to purchase your lex
Anybody selling an F-Sport exhaust?
I know man. I need one used. New they cost over 1000 on Ebay
Does the upper strut mess up comfort over bumps while driving?
It does make it a bit stiffer and solid
How many miles did it have when you got the lexus?
Carlos Leon I think he got it around 110,000 - 120,000
I bought mine with 130,000 miles
Good to know. I'm going to look at one with 81,000 miles on it.
how much mpg do you get by normal drive?
22mpg usually
