Not payed till Wednesday :duh: so I will prob have to take the extra couple pounds hit an pay on the day, my cuz has a celica so I could convince him to come down to... sounds a great day out

Car has very light tints all round. They are the "light smoke" type, not the blacked out dark/limo tints. :) With the whole car being done, from a distance the overall effect is darker I think. You can easily see through the windows from outside however and I've never had any issues with visibility from the front tints; nor have I struggled to make eye contact with predestrians or other drivers. It is one of those things, some people will say it's illegal so foolish you for doing it. But again on my old car I had dark smoke on all the back and light on the front...never been pulled for it.. my cuz has limo black on all of his windows drives with the front down most of time though, he's never been pulled either... it's the cop on the day I think.. unlucky did u tint the windows yourself? Cuz if you didn't the tint company should of told you they where illeagal

Do we have to be a Gold Member to get in on this + my car is pretty much standard I don't want to show you guys up with the lack of doing any mods to my car

Not seen any like that b4, nice...

Just got mine but it's about 86k on (reg 99) Just passed MOT an Service thanks...lol

Does the Kazama exhaust make alot of noise? I'm feeling like going noisey when I get some cash together I imagine it will be great with an induction kit on at 4k-5k revs...lol

I quite like it, but then i'm probably a little younger and don't appreciate how good the car looks already.. adding more mesh makes you look more boy racer like, but in fairness take a little of the quality an prestige away from the luxury motor all down to personal choice if ur fed up in a yr or so I'll have it ;)

I have similar ones to option 4 in gun metal grey, so I think they look nice Liking option 2 as well... then option 1 to many spokes for IS although i am into multi spokes as well... Not a fan of option 3... But thats just my opinion, i'm not paying for them..lol don't curb them like me after 3 months I was almost in tears

Well I got to pay £500 for the service and MOT, new sparks, and ball joints, oil top up, filter etc... I am now officially poor sorry to not come to this one, do you do this every month or so... Notts is so the closest place for me to get to which is why i'm gutted i miss this one... P.S. Maybe I could catch up with a few of you guys at a weekend (when ur available) or something cuz i need lots of tips and help...lol my first mission is to fix or change my head unit

I may be unable to come now as the car has to go in for a few things to be fixed tomorrow so it can pass the MOT, spark plugs and a ball joint? but if it's all reasonable price i'll certainly be over at some stage. But no need to book me a place, just incase i can't... will update tomorrow night.

Mr Morse I will show you at the meet and maybe you can help explain what i need to do next... thanks

I'm also in desperate need to put a aftermarket headunit in, what do i need to connect one?

Ok I have no knowledge on Wheels/Alloys/Tyres etc, but I got sum off my friends Honda Accord(he says they will b fine) all I do know is there TSW 19's Catalunya Now in my Max Power mag it says they are 215-35-19 <---what that means I have no idea.. I checked on the tyres for help it says Proxes T1-S 215/35/ZR19 85W Do these wheels fit without any trouble I was told by my cuz I may need spaces of something, I don't want them all falling off or being destroyed cuz I have no idea what I'm doing..lol :duh: (also been driving on them for awhile should I stop?) Another Question Now the car has not been lowered yet, but if I got it lowered 30mm will that cause any probs.. PS. Forgot to mention it's a 99 IS200 Sport PPS. Took the pic off was 2 big really Thanks for help in advance Chris

thanks will try this sat thanks will try this sat

It's the 9th of March now isn't it anyway?... ;)

Hi all this is the problem, I just had my MOT and 85k Service and it's passed. But when it came back there is still an annoying squeak when I break(although I was told there is still pad left), also it sounds like there maybe a prob with the suspension or wheels as when I go over a bump there is another squeak. My cuz thinks it's either a brake pad worn out, or the fact i didn't check the wheels would fit and they are slighty moving and I will need spacers is this right? How can I find out the size of the wheels etc as I got them off a friend, I know there 19's but I don't know any no more :duh: I don't want to drive around and a wheel poping off...lol and if it has nothing to do with the wheels I will feel alot better if it was just the brakes neeed new pads. any help appreciated.. thanks

Got it's service and MOT, sorted insurance just Tax to go...lol and shall be able to come :P

Intresting read, thanks for that..

welcome to my world of broke headunits, waiting for a free weekend to acturally take a look.. maybe this week, keep ur fingers crossed

Hair grows back, mine grows back so fast i didn't mine trying it out for awhile (best in summer though ;) ). Where a cap if you hate it...hehe All lexus drivers with shaved heads :o

Why is there so much poping? I want mine to do that...lol

Mine is £170 for the 99 IS200 Sport :(

Thats what i was thinking, its a ported box as well dunno if that will make any difference? Answer in my old car, turn it up more..lol ;) till you can afford dynomat

Quick question are these the standard 6x9's and front speakers etc... or must u change these when u get a new head unit?

Hot!! i like they are not far from what I have ;) i'll try get a pic up.. ^^^ total lie, went to take a pic of mine a few minutes ago they look differnt by far..lol
