Aw ;[ I read and read and read through the thread from the beginning, my heart pounding with each post. I knew by the time I'd reach the end, surely the results would be there!

Unfortunately I found this thread too early =[

It seems that a lot of us have made estimates on the potential cap of the VQ37 at maybe 550, but what is the limit to the transmission???

The IS300 5 speeds are well known to be made of glass. They were designed for the n/a 2JZ-GE which makes such little power that Lexus never assumed people would break them.
