The IS300 owner was driving like an ass. Talking on his cell-phone while driving WAY too fast and weaving in and out of lanes.

So I decided to speed up a little bit as he passed me. We were approaching a toll-booth. We both got in to a booth, right next to each other.

Well, the little shit looked over and gave a semi-degrading gesture to my wife. Bad move...

So, we both launched pretty hard out of the toll-booth. I was in the left-most booth, he was just to my right. There was NO FREAKIN' way he was gonna get ahead of me.

Needless to say, I OWNED his punk ass up to 85mph (3 car lengths), when I decided I didn't want my wife going nuts over my speed. So I slowed down.

The IS300 dipass was behind me, flashing his brights, getting on my ass. So I moved over to the center lane and he pulled up. He wanted to run.

I didn't bite. The roads were wet, my wife was in the car and after the little gesture he made, I didn't feel like making any more out of this.

One kill was enough for me.

Mike

good kill on that loser!

Zapata

I guess he had one of the non-turbo IS300s Lucky for you! Also lucky that he didn't catch you in some twisties

EXCELLENT kill!

Black CL-S 4-Life

Nice kill! Way to show that IS300 driver his place in the food chain.

NJTypeS

Just out of curiosity, how many IS300 drivers actually turbo charge their cars anyway?

cusdaddy

LOL!!!! :P :P :P - Finding one of those non-turbo IS300's is rare (at least the way it seems according to the CL thread on their forum)

I never had the fortune of beating up on an IS300. I have ran into a few, but they never want to bite...

GREAT KILL!!

1SICKLEX

LMAO!!! Good kill dude. What was the gesture?????

Scrib

Not sure what it's "called" but...

Take your index and middle fingers, make the "peace" sign.

Put one finger on each side of our mouth, extend the tounge... Move the tounge around.

Like you're eating at the "Y"...

It was just offensive... And certainly uncalled for considering I didn't do jack SHIT to the guy.

darrinb

what a cock sucker

Gilgamesh

Umm...he was an IS'er, you know what that stands for right? Immature Shyt.

goldcltype-s

good kill scrib

the gesture was made to scrib to piss him off
it used up here quite often.

it to signal to scrib that he wants to eat some pussy
i'll leave it at that.

a guy was sent to the hostipal up here a few months ago for that gesture.
the guy got traped in traffic and the guy that recieved the gesture got out with a baseball bat and went to town on him and his mercedes.
Don't let it bug you Scrib the guy's a loser.

Scrib

It really doesn't bother me actually. It's really sad that some people act like that, regardless of what kind of car they drive. Especially around the holidays... LAME!!!

It's actually kind of funny that it was an IS300 driver, with all the flaming going on around here. I wonder if he was a IS300.net member.

It's over, it's done with and I beat his ass.

Life is good.

green svt

Good kill. Sorry about his immaturity. Sadly, these things happen. I toasted one twice at the track last summer. He had NOS stickers on the side.

is300 drivers are, for the most part, such faggy dicks...ive only met one is300 driver than wasnt a fucking loser and he is in his 30s and a respectable human being, seriously, what is it with those guys??? you go to their forum and its just rampant with the stupidest most arrogant people youd ever guess even walked the face of the planet. and most of them are total riceboys. get a clue fags, bottom barrell lexus doesnt mean shit respect fellow drivers...especially those that will hand you your ass

1SICKLEX

Well, I happen to not only visit internet forums a bunch, but attend meets as well. Every IS owner I have met is the typical, classy Lexus owner. SO what, EVERYONE talks crap on the internet.

That bottom barrel Lexus is better than most other cars.

I am RobG

you definitely top out on the patience meter, if he or anyone ever made that gesture towards my wife/girlfriend, i'd probably get end up in jail

IS300included

Ok asshat, I'm one of those faggy dicks.

All you have proved in your previous post was that YOU in fact are the faggy dick. You just displayed that you are judgemental, uninteligent, and just a plain asshole.

You say our forum has stupid arrogant people? Come to IS300.net, drop by the parking lot and start talking your shit. Then come back here and tell all your buddies how stupid we are over there.

The enthusiast IS300 driver (the ones on the forum) will all tell you the same thing: "The IS300 is slow." No fucking news there. We know this, our car handles well, is fun to drive, but when compared to the others in it's class, it's slow. And our "bottom barrel" car doesn't mean shit? I'm sorry you feel that way. But for every person that says that the IS ain't shit, I'll find ten that say the same for the CL. It's just opinions.

You know, the IS driver that got killed in the story in this thread is exemplary of a class of people called "idiots", they can be found representing every kind of car on the road. I've found, and dusted, many CL driving idiots who did the same thing as the guy in the IS spoken of in this thread. The point is, just because a few morons drive an IS, doesn't mean we're all morons.

Don't generalize. It's not nice.

And scrib, I won't gesture to your wife, but I'll race ya out of a toll booth. The outcome will be a little different though.

I am RobG

what is this round 46 of Is vs CL

IS300included

I don't want to start an IS vs. CL argument (although I fear I already did).. but come on guys.

Your car is faster stock, but a CL with 5K in mods vs. an IS with 5K in mods won't stand a chance, staight line or twisties.

For $3900 an IS owner can get a PLP Supercharger that puts his/her car up to 330HP.

I don't know much (no, I know NOTHING) about Acura CL mods, but what can $3900 get you guys????? I'm actually curious (I also own a TL Type-S and I wanna mod it).

The CL is front drive, the IS is rear drive. Our car has a better platform for performance, that it all. Your car is better for comfort, weather driving, and smoothness.

The CL has it's strong points and so does the IS.

But performance-wise, you're comparing a 2JZ-GE I6 to a honda V6. The 2JZ, when you start modding it, doesn't stop spitting out horsepower.

I am RobG

for 3800 we can get the comptech supercharger and then we're both back to where we started

jimcol711

actually, the cost of the comptech supercharger for the CL-S is exactly $3,900 if you go through the guy that sells them here. so for the same price as the is300 S/C a CL-S can have virtually the same thing...(however as of right now that S/C is only available to 6-speed CL-S owners....)

bent09

iTrader: (1)

We can get a Comptech SC.

I test drove the is and thought it was a great car. I loved the steering wheel but overall the cl was a much better car. Like you said both have there strong points but overall I went with the CLS

IS300included

Niello Acura (in Sacramento, CA) told me that to put a comptech s/c on my TL (when the s/c is available for the TL) would cost me about $7000 by the time it was all said and done.

damn.... that's expensive.

Can anybody here give me a link that proves this $3900 quote for the Comptech S/C???????

Black CL-S 4-Life

The supercharger isn't out for the CL-S auto or TL-S. Hes full of shit!

jimcol711

go to the comptech parts forum, the guy who sells the stuff is named Dean, his screen name here is Deansbluesi he sells the supercharger for $3,900 shipped. $7,000 was merely your dealer trying to fuck you up your ass....as most dealers do on performance mod installation costs. if you have the know-how to install it yourself, you can get the comptech supercharger for $3,900 shipped and installed.

IS300included

Hey queerbait.... maybe if you READ MY POST you'd realize that I wrote that the dealer gave me the approximate price for the s/c WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE.

I'm sorry if you didn't catch that.

Of course, I just got a response from Comptech (I emailed them asking about the s/c for auto TLs and CLs) and he told me that the s/c would never be made for the Automatic trannies cause they torque converter and your weak little halfshafts (FF = Joke) can't handle that whopping 35-50 extra HP.

jimcol711

here is your proof:

"Hey guys,

Just got off the phone with Comptech. The 6 Speed Cl-S supercharger will be shipping next week!!!!!!!!!!

I will be taking orders now for them so that you can be the first to get them

Retail on the kits is $4495 and I am doing them for $3900 shipped anywhere in the US.

The kit is making ~315WHP with headers and exhaust!!!!


Who wants one?

Payment will be via Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express.

Please let me know if you have questions.

Thanks

there ya go, now you can get yourself a supercharger for your TL-S....only problem is the version for the TL-S and automatic CL-S isnt out till february now i beleive.

IS300included

Ok so let's set this out.

CL-S 6spd plus $3900 = 310HP, FF, 3500 lbs.

IS 300 5spd plus $3900 = 330-345HP, FR, 3200 lbs.

What will perform better? Hmmmmmmm let me think.

IS300included

And lets not even start talking about turbos.

IS300included

Hey..... wanna see just how dumb IS owners are????? Watch one of your members try and talk shit in the IS300 forum.

http://www.is300.net/forum/viewtopic...8843#133188843

Ouch.

jimcol711

id like to see the proof that an off-the-shelf, out-of-the-box supercharger for the is300 can give you about 160 WHP!!! im not going to call bullshit on that, but i seriously would like to see some proof, that seems veeeerry optimistic from a supercharger and no other mods....considering is300's dyno at like 180 hp. show me the proof.

blackmagiCL_S

Honda and Toyota rivalry...isn't it funny?

I like the IS300 but I wanted a 2 door car. I think they are pretty nice cars and look a fair deal better than a lot of the smaller 4 door sedans out there.

Stock for stock, the CL-S is faster. Deal with it.

IS300included

I've got my dyno time in two days. I'll post my proof then.

Dyno sheets are all I consider proof of this sort of thing. One of the dudes on IS300/net posted a dyno featuring stats proving my statements.

The reason the S/C for the IS provides so much more power is because it runs at a higher boost pressure than the comptech unit. The 2JZ-GE is a motor that can handle high boost.... the V-6 in the CL and TL can't... plain and simple.

The engine in the IS takes very well to boost and can handle lots of it. It seems that the engine in the IS was designed to take boost and do a lot with it.... cause that's what they do.

Black CL-S 4-Life

Fuck off troll!

IS300included

You guys don't read on this forum do you?

I ALREADY SAID THAT THE CL-S IS FASTER STOCK.

YOU deal with it.

IS300included

Oh what???? Poor baby can't deal with a little ownT????

Or does your fag-ass lack the inteligence to think up a more well thought out response???

People like you should just do existense a favor an kill themselves.

I am RobG

and instead of spending 2-3 grand having a dealer install it, do it yourself, its all bolt on and not all that hard to do after reading the directions. And also horsepower gains are relative to stock acceleration....i'm just throwing out numbers here dont quote me but say the IS does what a 15.2 in the 1/4 and the Cl-S 6spd does a 14.6...add the supercharger to the cl-s chances are it'll be around a 13.6-13.8ish....i'm sorry but if you throw you supercharger on you're not gonna gain almost 2 seconds, not startin anything just making a point

jimcol711

robg, watch out, apparently this guys got a supercharger that gives him a 170 WHEEL HP gain....

IS300included

You know what I decided here?

This is all pointless...

We don't need to argue.... You drive yours, I'll drive mine. How bout that???

I'm out.

Peace.

Bitch watch who you call a fag. If you were here in Houston I guarantee your fake troll ass wouldn't be talking shit! Fuck you and your IS300!
