i have a 2005 is300 sportcross with lowered front suspension and i hate it - speed bumps round here are a nightmare. Would your front suspension fit my car? The previous owner fitted konis. the lexus garage want £700 to change back, this could be the answere?

Have you set the KONIs to the correct damping force (mismatch between spring and damper; is always a nightmare)?

aren't the IS200 front springs too weak to support the IS300 engine?

The spring rate for the IS200 suspension is different to the IS300, due to the heavier engine aye.

But I'm selling IS300 ones anyway :P

:lol: I could've sworn it said IS200 under your name when I replied

i do not know how to adjust them, in the meantime i have bought the original shocks and springs from Jimxs, i will get them fitted next week. At least i will get my ride height back to normal which is the most important thing. Thanks for pointing it out though. Ed
