Great video! I dropped my 02 is300 rear subframe about a year and a half ago and replaced all the rear arms as well with godspeed. Since the subframe was out I did polyurethane subframe mounts with battle version differential mounts on a y38 lsd. You might have done this already but rank one performance makes a good rear lower knuckle polyurethane bushing. Rank one also make affordable front rca's and adapters for the ls400 front caliper conversion. Looking forward to your next video!
Idk if I’m the first to say it but the IS has half the suspension of the gs400 which is crazy I just put the same lower control arm on my gs400 and I’m about to put the same rear traction arm on, I believe the toe arms are the same too I went with another brand instead
@@C3GARAGEMedia I'm thinking of getting this same set, mainly because it's cheaper than oem, and they have adjustments just incase I want to do some lowering, and camber. So are they good for a daily driver?
How did the car drive before you got an alignment but after the install. I just changed mine out and want to know if I got the same response out of it or if something is off. Thanks in advance.
Just got the figs hysteer and all god speed arms I was really surprised they ended up being better quality then I thought was wondering if you could post your alignment specs
How much more room do you have to get max camber? I’m trying to tilt my wheels in as much as possible. (Accidentally bought the wrong wheel offset so my fenders are destroying my tires as we speak)
Go for it! I have them on my daily driven is300 and they are great, just check the tightening nuts on the arms every so often to make sure they haven't loosened.
@@MRMAN-wb1tv sometimes when I check them the tightening bolt is loose and sometimes it's not. Guess if you wanted to you could use a low strength thread locker to keep them in place
@@jicez6649 Definitely will use threadlock!!! I had a recent problem with exhaust nuts backing out causing leaks, and I put threadlock on the bolts and I haven't had a problem since. Thanks for the response.
mitchell cristillo how do you adjust them, I just installed mine yesterday and when I test drove I could definitely feel I need an alignment which I’m doing today. Thanks In advance.
Hey man, I'm about to install all 4 arms as well, I was looking at the rear toe arms bolt for the subframe. How did u remove it, from what I saw, it looks like itll hit some metal and doesn't have enough space to fully remove. Any help and tips would be appreciated.
Dropping the rear subframe makes it really easy plus you can change the subframe and differential bushings to xcessive manufacturing bushings since the stock ones are probably done. Great way to take advantage of lockdown time.
@@jicez6649 yeah, maybe I'll do that in the future. I installed all thr rear arms without dropping the subframe. For the toe arms you just have to remove some metal brace that blocks the bolt from coming out completely.
How do you like the god speed rear? Any problems? Thinking about getting me the set too but not sure how quality is I guess. Can you share an update? Thanks! Mine would be just for DD aggressive driving
Looks great! Can't wait to see the IS on the track.👌

Hell yeah man looks great good stuff!!
Hell yeah bro.. Go Get You some lmao.. Great Video, Keep it up.. always waiting for the next one 👍

Same as a GS300 or a JZX
Updated on these please 🤝 how are they holding up?
Holding up great. Many drift days running these hard no issues. Sometimes the lock nuts wiggle loose.

What was the wrench size you used for the lowers? I just put these in my is but my originals had to be cut off due to rust, alignment is wack lol

How’s the drive with those Godspeeds. Thinking about doing the rear of my is300 with them.
Go for it! I have them on my daily driven is300 and they are great, just check the tightening nuts on the arms every so often to make sure they haven't loosened.
@@jicez6649 Why??? This the second time seeing someone say that.

Hey man, where are you at? I live in Broomfield, just north of Denver, Let’s meet up, I’m building my new project ‘04 IS also
Ian__ S live off 136th and I 25
C3GARAGE Media oh nice, I’m just west of top golf on Hwy 7 by the new children’s hospital. Let’s meet up sometime bro. Hit me up on IG: trd_co
Torque Specs for the toe arm please sir? Cannot find it anywhere
Ahhhhh Curtis you didnt adjust the arms correctly 😳keeps up the great vids 👌🏻
mitchell cristillo no but the alignment shop did. Worked well enough to drive a couple blocks
mitchell cristillo how do you adjust them, I just installed mine yesterday and when I test drove I could definitely feel I need an alignment which I’m doing today. Thanks In advance.
Do you have a link of where to purchase them
What torque specs did you use for all the parts

@@Max2JZZX10R nice, glad you got them in, these are awesome cars!
How much was everything an a link to parts
good stuff, what kind of size and offset for your wheels? thx
18x9.5 +33
Update?
How is the NVH. It must be more harsh and noisy compared to stock ?
A little bit but this is a full time drift car.
What tools were needed for the rear toe arms?
Basic hand tools. Breaker bar. Torque wrench and a ball joint separator.
Is that a good brand?
What setup you running on the front arms?
Running figs on the front. The rears are affordable but I think they will work.
would these help me get rid of the small camber I have due to the car being lowered?
Yep. Totally
What does the traction rod do?
Literally keeps the wheel from going too far forward or backwards.
Is it maxed out?
not completely
How do you like the god speed rear? Any problems? Thinking about getting me the set too but not sure how quality is I guess. Can you share an update? Thanks! Mine would be just for DD aggressive driving
