Thats fantastic, I’ve always preferred a square set up and didn’t know the ISF had that much room. Thanks!

New member in Hong Kong, recently purchased a 2008 Japanese market model. Not many IS-F's on the road here and I limited my search to low mileage, clean, stock examples. Happy so far with the small amount of seat time I've put in so far. Biggest issue so far is the radio, JDM version so the FM ranges don't cover this market and I need to decide on a bluetooth or USB integration solution (VAIS vs Grom). Once I find a road to open it up a bit I'll get a better impression of driving dynamics! Had an E39 M5 and some M3s in the before I moved here, initial impression is the M cars are a bit more visceral but I really don't want to deal with M-car upkeep in HK where I can't DIY.

285/30/18 Advan A048. Very slight rubbing full lock in reverse but that's it. No spacers needed either.
