  1. Hi does anyone know which plug from the amp in the boot goes to the speakers and which wires go to which speaker? My stereo doesn't work and I'm thinking of using an ipod for music. My plan is to dock the ipod in the ashtray so the car still remains looking standard and go from the output of the ipod dock to an eq in the glove box with outputs to 3 amplifiers (front, rear & subwoofer) It would be much easier if I could run the wires to the existing amplifier plug to save running new wires to the speakers. I've found this wiring diagram but the colors dont seem to match with the amp wiring
  2. sorry but NO dont do it. you will be ok to replace the directional f1 with another directional but if you switch to an assymetric design it must be on both sides. the idea of switching the spare if its directional would be a good one or just buy a directional toyo and switch the rest when funds allow. i am sure on this and have even heard of insurance companies trying not to pay out for this reason alone :shutit: it will affect the handling in the wet as an assymetric directs water to the outside of the car. also if you do get another gsd3 make sure its made in germany as they have recently switched production to china and the quality has reduced. (its written on the sidewall btw)
  3. you know what you have but never know what your buying imho :duh: keep it and dont buy problems? my cousin would do the service for 500 euro max but he may be too far away? get a good independant? 877 801 433 paul

  6. Completley agree about the keys. if the theives are already in my house id rather them find the keys quick and go with my cars rather than snoop around the place looking for them, kids rooms, mrs in bed etc etc i love my cars but not that much!
  7. Hi, just wondered what wheels you took off as im after some! id also be interested in the contact i need a cd player, os silver wing, maybe the interior and a few other bits! Glad someone got a deal on sport wheels, theres hope for me yet lol just a shame i never got there first! only messing fairplay to you mate!
  8. Hope its sorted soon mate, on a lighter note have you decided what your gonna buy for it with the cash you have saved in fuel when you get it back 100% :P
  9. ive got some springs here if any member wants em and is willing to collect from birmingham, now got a mk1 gs so if a donation can be made to my new modding fund id appreciate that too :winky:
  10. Im back! sold my is200 in november as i couldnt afford the supercharger and wanted speed! bought an impreza but always said id get another lexus, Picked up a mk1 gs300 yesterday (keepin the scooby as well!!) and im glad to be back in a lex, this time a "proper" one! err no actually its not a proper one as it hasnt even got leather lol (legato) still im glad i never spent the 4k or so i was going to spend on a mk2 now as im happy with the car and i get to keep the scooby to "play" with, (although i do need some wheels, leather, lowering, tints, stereo system, ahem maybe scooby will be going lol). anyway i thought id better spread the word even the mk1 gs seems a better car than the is200 imho
  11. Hi i know it was an old post but do you still have the seats? just bought a gs300 with cloth trim
  12. just thought id put my 2 pence worth in here i think you are all missing the point here fact: the is f is a masssive step in the right direction for lexus fact: any m3 has always been an awsome car fact: audi rs4 deserves respect what i mean is ive worked on, loved, owned bmws for years and if somebody had said to me a few years ago id prefer something made by the same company that made a corolla id have felt but would i swap my IS for an e46 would i :tsktsk: but an e60 but would i then swap that for an IS F :P keep the pressure up lexus, keep battling bmw, try harder audi either way im gonna have me a nice car after this IS :D am i wrong?
  13. They are being discontinued in certain sizes, mainly 50 and 60 profiles. This is because Goodyear now have a new model called "Excellence". I think it will be a long time before the directional F1 is replaced with the asymmetrical excellence in lower aspect ratios. well actually i work for goodyear and yes the gsd3 we all love has been replaced, theyre still being made but not in germany as before the design has been shipped to china of all places. there is a new eagle f1 which is an assymetrical design (not rotational but has an "outside" and "inside") i replaced my gsd3s with toyot1-s and was impressed they seem more grippy than the toyos, ive now fitted 18's with contis and and think im gonna change back to toyo asap. basically if you do go for the f1 gsd3 make sure theyre of the german variety its written on the sidewall "made in china" or "made in germany", thats my two penneth!
  14. hi m8 congrats on your choice of car! cant help with the seatbelt but if you need any help fitting the headunit gimmie a pm :winky: firstly get a facia off ebay and dont beleive the hype its not so hard to fit if you know what your doing tell you what ill fit the lot start to finish for a nifty so go looky for a facia :P
