  1. Glad you and the better half are OK. :D Hope more than do the right think by you.
  2. Yeah mine does the same, I will wash the lights and the windows the first time the button is pressed but the windows are washed alone for a while then the light will be washed again. There seens to be some time delay before the lights are washed again but the times is reset when the ignitions is turned off. David :) P.s. 2001 IS300 as well
  3. I Have notice the same with my IS300 auto sportcross Speedo have a faster reading than my road angel, between 8 and 10%. Was a bit puzzled at first but decided to trust the new fangled technology of GPS.
  4. Yeah it is the same package that is on the ASP website. Dave
  5. Thats the baby's Cheers mate
  6. Dont think any brakes would have helped with mate unless we are talking about stopping on a dime :duh: Didn't know they were on ebay, I am away to have a wee look. Cheers :D
  7. Would the Brembo discs and PBR pads from altezza sports and prestige fit my IS300 S/C Is there another package for about the same money that is anybetter?? Lexus in glasgow have just serviced my baby and want around 600 notes for new brakes so I thought I would get some nice shinny ones :D and fit them myself. + they want 50 notes to change the brake fluid, again I will do it myself for what ever I can get a decent brake fluid for. Cheers Dave :P Think it is about time I got a good picture of my car to change my avatar
  8. Flux quoted me £900ish for a standard IS300 but I had a couple of crashes in 2002 that were beem to be my fault, although I dont agree that the first one was my fault. + a wee ban for doing 106 on the M6 one sunny morning in 2003. Still I am happy with the quote. :D
  9. The same thing happened to me just after I bought my IS300, with a multimeter the battery would read not bad ( just above 12 volts) but when I tried to start the car it would turn over but reluctantly but started then if I left anything running without starting the car I got the clicking . Took it back to the garage and they said the battery was ok as it was reading over 12 volts, forced the garage to send it down to there Lexus branch as I only had the car 4-5 weeks and the lexus boys replaced the battery and it has been cool since. :D
  10. :D Welcome to the club. Gib:- I leave mine in power mode all the time, i think it give the car a wee bit extra and I run with the gearbox in manual 75% of the time and only use auto while on the motorway :D
  11. Just seen thoughs pic's that looks harsh. Glad you and the little one are ok, hope the insurance sorts you out all ringht
  12. Hi I was looking at superchargers available in the sates for IS300's and can up with there three. http://www.prolexperformance.com/prolexper...roduct.asp?id=1 http://www.prolexperformance.com/prolexper...roduct.asp?id=2 http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=1683 I don't know if they have been looked at before and decided that they will not fit a RHS car or rejected for other reason. They are all under 6k US. and that is before a group discount. Shipping and handling to the UK would have to be added + fitting once you get your hands on them. :D :D So what do you think guy’s, I am still interest in have a S/C fitted for the right price of course. ;)
  13. Hi My insurance will be up in a couple of months, 29 and looking at £1100 Bugger Shall be hunting down the credit card to sign up for my gold memebership today.
  14. Single refurb'd alloy on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...7977786412&rd=1
  15. The only time my Engine Management Light / Malfunction Indicator Lamp came on was because my battery was not holding a proper charge. Had the battery replaced by the garage I bought the car from and has been fine since :)
  16. Always drive with the TCS off unless it is raining really heavily or icy. Even with the TCS off and I provoke a wee slide the stability control kicks in and stops the slide, spoil sports And no the picture left has nothing to do with the traction control, I had not even found the button yet to turn the TCS off :P
  17. Yeah sound great, would depend on the dates ma' missus in due to drop the second wee one mid July. :o Don't know if she would let me go while she was in having the baby What do you think
  18. Going a wee bit fast in a 40, if you do the crime you've got to do the time...
  19. Stopped by the rozzer today three points and a 60 squid fine :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: I will need to find out how much that is going to cost me
  20. Cheers for the help I will have a wee look at the links and see what is what. Liking the sound of 320bhp+ :D :D :D Does anyone know if the autobox can cope with 320+ I was heading down the s/c route because of the running costs and install problems with a turbo. More buying power for the IS300 sounds great. Anyone got a good insurer for mod'd cars my insurance will be up in september. Yeah Mr Morse the crunch is all sorted lookin bran' new again, only had the car 5 and a half hour when the wee wowwypop ran into me with a banged up mini :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk:
  21. Hi new to the site and would like you get some info on getting my IS300 sportcros moving a bit faster :D I have not done any upgrades yet and thought I would get in at the deep end and see what happens, induction kit, exhaust and s/c. Has anyone fitted a s/c to a IS300, is there any problem with the extra power and the tiptronic gearbox What kind of extra power would I be looking at for the above mod's. what do you think :P
