Hi guys, I'm contemplating about selling my Audi S4, to get a IS200 Sport with six speed manual, and a nice bike (+ gear).
The Euro IS200 has a nice 155hp straight six, but I was thinking about getting a 1JZ, so I used the search... but you guys don't seem to have the IS200, just the IS300?
I was hoping that there is someone here with some knowledge about swapping the responsive 1JZ in the IS200 body... or did I use the wrong key words maby?
Cheers![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
P.s.: before people are going to ask 'why not buy an IS300' and 'why not go with the 2JZ-GTE'; I'd rather not use the IS300 because it's more expensive to buy and own (higher taxes and insurance), and I prefer the 1JZ over the 2JZ because it's supposed to be more responsive, and with fuel being US$ 7,50 per US gallon... a little bit of mileage is appreciated

Sorry, but it's not the 4-cylinder type ![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
We've got the 1G-FE VVT-i engine over here.
But, I'll take a look at toyotanation and my.is, thanks for the tip

I really don't like fourbangers :P
Having owned several Honda's, had quite a few of them, even powerfull ones, I can honestly tell you that 4 cyl's grow boring.
