Found this on ebay. Custom IRS for an S197 built for SEMA. Wonder how it handles...

That thing has been on there a long ass time i think it started out at around 5k

I'm no expert on IRS setups, but a lot of those load-bearing tubes have big bends in them, and that alone would make me nervous. It's pretty, but I think I would have to throw the "bling" flag at it.

yeah that things been around forever. I remember seeing it almost a year ago on ebay. It doesnt look like a stout system.

'show car' normally isn't 'go car'. Pretty, but built for the SEMA show. I'd think if it was a smokin deal and a stout enough part to go racin someone would own it by now.

It would be far less expensive to get the IRS out of a 03-04 Cobra and modify it to bolt in, which is no big deal. The cars composure would improve dramatically with the IRS too. I miss my 03’ Cobra a lot, I never should have sold it. The IRS was very, very nice. An added bonus of IRS is you don’t need to deal with driveshaft vibrations/harmonics like you do with a solid axle.

I have been wanting to pick one up forever but I am so busy it will be quite a while before something like that happens.

The downside is that if you are making 450rwhp the IRS will need axles, bushings, etc. they already have 3.55’s in them already though which is ice,
