			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Previously on <a href="http://www.vividracing.com/blog/announcing-new-products-specials-and-info/vorsteiner-ventross-nissan-r35-gt-r-aerodynamics/">this blog</a>, we announced the GT-R would be on the receiving end of a great new product from Vorsteiner. Now is the time for this new product to hit the market for both the Nissan R35 GT-R and the race inspired Lexus IS-F. The R35 kit comes in either FRP or Dry Carbon fiber and features performance enhancing lip spoiler integrated front bumper and aerodynamic improving rear diffuser.</p>

<p>Ventross for the Lexus IS-F contains a trunk lid with either single or double black carbon fiber, carbon fiber rear diffuser and an addon front spoiler formed with carbon fiber. All pieces improve the already great IS-F. Weight reduction, improved aerodynamics or one of a kind appearance, no matter what your need is, the Ventross by Vorsteiner can meet it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a big fan of the line of Lexus vehicles, and as owner of one myself. I love to see any, and all news of tastefully, modified Lexus vehicles. Currently, the Lexus IS-F is unmistakeably one of the hottest sports sedans, standing toe-to-toe against Mercedes Benz&#8217;s C63 AMG, BMW&#8217;s M3 and Audi&#8217;s RS4.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/10/04_lexus_sema_teasers.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="266" /></p>
<p>IS F by Import Tuner Magazine/TEIN</p>
<p>Lexus Description: Import Tuner Magazine and TEIN suspension company put their collective heads and expertise together to create an IS F that&#8217;s focused on track performance, while still remaining practical for the street. Weight reduction, added chassis stiffness, special suspension and big sticky tires take care of the corners, while a comprehensive nitrous system boosts the engine for bursts of overtaking power. Coming soon to a track near you.</p>
<p>Autoblog&#8217;s Take: What would an Import Tuner vehicle be without a healthy shot of NOS and a TEIN figurine? Certainly not up to the mag&#8217;s idee fixe of bikini-clad babes and bright-colored body kits. Thankfully, TEIN was around to stop the madness with a set of coilovers equipped with its EDFC electronic damping system. The Tom&#8217;s front and rear suspension braces should do wonders for chassis flex, along with the rear strengthening brace, and we can&#8217;t deny any vehicle that&#8217;s sporting stitch-welded body seams, adjustable front control arms and biggie-sized Brembo GTs. We give it five points for a complete package, but deduct two points for excessive vinyl usage.</p>
<p>Exterior</p>
<p>* Five Axis dry carbon front lip<br />
* Black chrome dipped emblems and front grill<br />
* Smoked headlights<br />
* S&amp;A Design vinyl</p>
<p>Interior</p>

* Nitrous bottle heater<br />
* P.O.D. system<br />
* Nitrous pressure gauges<br />
* K&amp;N intake<br />
* Tom&#8217;s Linear Throttle Controller</p>
<p>Exhaust</p>

<p>IS F by 0-60 Magazine</p>
<p>Lexus Description: With track performance a common theme among IS F builders, 0-60 Magazine ups the ante on their IS F project with a supercharger to tease out another load of horses from the big V8. Carbon fiber body components reduce weight while lowering the center of gravity and a custom roll cage adds stiffness and protection. A beefy brake upgrade kit was added to balance the performance equation.</p>
<p>Autoblog&#8217;s Take: We know first-hand that the 0-60 crew knows how to drive (we rode with Spinelli in a GT-R), so it&#8217;s no surprise that the buff book&#8217;s IS F blends the right amount of power with the proper dose of stick. Although they haven&#8217;t provided us with output figures for the GReddy-supercharged bent-eight, our educated guesstimation puts it somewhere in the neighborhood of 550 hp. That extra grunt and the carbon fiber body panels should do a lot to cure the IS F&#8217;s biggest issue: weight. And with a custom roll cage, TEIN suspension, upgraded brakes and a set of Yokohama Advan RZ wheels wrapped in Hankook Ventus EVO V12 rubber, this is the first IS F we&#8217;d actually like to drive. We await a call from Mr. Scotto.</p>
<p>Exterior</p>
<p>* Seibon Carbon Panels: Hood, Fenders, Trunk, Spoiler</p>
<p>Interior</p>
<p>* Design Craft Fabrication custom roll cage<br />
* Sparco Chrono Road Seats wrapped with interior-matching leather</p>
<p>Engine</p>
<p>* Greddy MP92 Supercharger w/ custom aluminum intake manifold<br />
* Greddy Intelligent Informeter Touch<br />
* Greddy Intake and filter<br />
* Braille Carbon Battery</p>
<p>Exhaust</p>
<p>* Custom system using Greddy Spectrum Elite components</p>
<p>Suspension</p>
<p>* Tein Super Street Coilovers w/ EDFC Kit</p>
<p>Wheels</p>
<p>* Yokohama Advan Racing RZ Wheels &#8211; Front: 19&#215;9&#8243; &#8211; Rear: 19&#215;10&#8243;</p>
<p>Tires</p>
<p>* Hankook Ventus EVO V12 &#8211; Front: 245/35-19 &#8211; Rear: 275/30-19</p>
<p>Brakes</p>
<p>* Performance Friction Lexus IS F Z-Rated brake upgrade kits (front and rear) &#8211; Forged 4–piston monobloc calipers &#8211; Radial mount caliper brackets &#8211; 2-piece rotor/hat assemblies (372mm front; 355mm rear)<br />
* Z-rated Carbon Metallic ® multipads specifically for IS-F chassis<br />
* Stainless steel braided brake lines<br />

<p>IS F by MotorworldHype.com</p>
<p>Lexus Description: MotorworldHype has taken another path that is a bit less aggressive, yet more easily accessible for the average consumer. Lots of carbon to reduce some unwanted mass and a well-rounded package of suspension, brake, engine and cosmetic changes provide sharper responses in all directions.</p>
<p>Autoblog&#8217;s Take: Show before go or a well-rounded package? The MotorworldHype IS F is equipped with all the tried-and-true show-car standards: Volk TE37s, Michelin Pilot Sport 2s, a carbon fiber splitter and diffuser, along with a Brembo GT front brake package. While this IS F might be a good representation of what your standard owner might do to his V8-powered luxo-sedan, we can&#8217;t help feeling like this one was phoned-in.</p>
<p>Exterior</p>
<p>* Carbon fiber aero package featuring carbon front chin/splitter and rear diffuser<br />
* Weight reduction package featuring carbon fiber replacement trunk lid<br />
* Lexus Starfire White paint<br />
* Gloss black emblems<br />
* Gloss black window sills and roof<br />
* Matte black tips</p>
<p>Interior</p>
<p>* Blue Alcantara seat inserts</p>
<p>Engine</p>
<p>* Custom air intake system</p>
<p>Exhaust</p>
<p>* Borla high performance exhaust system</p>
<p>Suspension</p>
<p>* Tein Full Suspension System w/ EDFC</p>
<p>Wheels</p>
<p>* Rays Engineering Volk Racing TE 37 in matte black &#8211; Front: 19&#215;8.5&#8243; &#8211; Rear: 19&#215;9.5&#8243;</p>
<p>Tires</p>
<p>* Michelin Pilot Sport 2 &#8211; Front: 235/35-19 &#8211; Rear: 265/30-19</p>
<p>Brakes</p>
<p>* Brembo GT Big Brake Kit w/ 6 piston front calipers and floating rotors</p>
