  1. A cheap set of winter tyres would be better than a seto of summer tyres , i had nexen winter on a couple of years ago ( is 250 )and drove around land rovers sports in the snow as they were stuck . they were brilliant .

  3. Hi im also looking at tyres for the front and noticed these by 235/40R19 MAXXIS VS EV 96W XL SILent for ev motors , With a db of only 68 !!!! & fuel B, wet A & 96 load rating.. , and as prev mentioned a W rated tyre on a T rated vehicle is way over the top ... i have used maxxis 225/45R17 MAXXIS HP5 94W XL on my prelude 200 bhp vti and was very impressed..... what are peps thoughts .

  13. have you tried a pedal controller , i purchased one for my rc h 300 and was blown away by the trottle responce (in race mode ) so much so i bought one for my sc430
  14. hi if anyone is interested i can supply at 12% discount for forum memebers . hope this doesn't go against forum rules . cheers paul .
  15. throttle controller from tunit DOES NOT go into the obd port it takes the place of the connection of the throttle through the tunit box (which is now bluetooth) to the cars ecu . the difference is as quoted above , it woke my car up . i have one on my rc which had the most dreadful throttle unless in sport mode to now totally changing the cars reaction time ... "reaction time " ......its the difference between a spint in wellington boots to running in running shoes . if you would like one please contact me .
  16. from the lexus forum in usa ." I just installed a throttle controller on my 2003 SC430 and all I can say is WOW! I've made quite a few modifications to the car and this was the easiest to install (5 minutes tops with no tools) and the best bang for the buck. Gone is the annoying throttle lag. It' like the car woke up from a nap after nine years. Way to go Apexi."
  17. i would say it makes more of a diffence no need to switch etc i have just put one on a friends alfa guilietta 1.4 turbo that he has to put into dynamic every time he gets in the car to make it drive nice ....now is bam goes like the provebial ...
