  1. Ye if you could... I'll PM u my e-mail addy, cheers mate :winky:
  2. Everything on my last car pretty much was bought from Takakaira, if it was a woman I'd marry it! Can't recommend them more! Even if there's something you want that they don't have listed you just send them a mail & they get back to you with price & ETA within 24 hours, amazing service! Where abouts are you? That's the exhaust I'm plannin on getting & was gonna get it from them too. Would love to see/hear it...
  3. Ah savage! Fair play Dan, they look much better with the blue imho :winky:

    Tyres....

    Ye that's where I was looking alright, not in a huge rush for them so probably gonna use this place... Had the Proxes T1-S on my last car, found them brilliant so might try the Rs seen as it's the wet that I'm worried bout....

    Tyres....

    Just wondering what tyres people are using... My car came in with Bridgestone Potenzas all round but ones on the back are now worn down to the minimum Trying to decide whether to go for the same again or try Toyo Proxies, Goodyear F1s etc Any recommendations??? (Grip in wet is essential seen as we're comin into sh1tty winter...)

    Lowering

    Oh really??? Thought I read somewhere before that the RS is lower :duh: One of the sites said fitting their lowering springs to IS200/RS200 "sports suspension" won't lower the car Went to the Tuning Factory off Kylemore road trying to source some lowering springs and all they do is a full coilover kit for 890 + fitting Probably D2 coilovers were they? Know the lads out in Tuning Factory fairly well, never had them do any work on my car tho obviously lol €500 for springs is rediculous money, would never pay that!
  7. I actually only got dipped beams So rare that I'd ever use my full beams that I didn't bother getting a second set...
  8. Hey mate, I just recently put HIDs into my car, what a difference!!! Got them from here. The dip beams are 9005 & full beams are 9006... Hope this helps :winky:

    Lowering

    Just wondering what my options are for lowering my RS200, have asked in a few of the shops around here & none of them knew anything bout what's available... Anywhere I seem to look (KYB, Koni, etc) they all seem to be for the IS200 which the Altezza is lower than anyway... Not looking to spend a huge amount either
  11. Hey Dan! Serviced my Altezza just before trip over to Santa Pod, got oil filter from Toyota garage (€9), used Magnatex GTX 10w40, think it took bout 5 litres.... As for the eyebrows: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Lexus-IS200...sspagenameZWD1V Was thinkin of getting a set myself... :D Howz big-bird goin for ya? :P
  12. Hey peeps, quick question... I sourced a new wing for my Altezza (current one has weird ripple on it), it's off a '01 IS200, just wondering would this fit my car ok? Mine's a '99 Altezza btw :D Cheers :duh:
  13. Define "fruity" for me Mr Singh! :P It does have at least an after market back box, maybe a full system ill have to check that out! Ye the camerman was attempting a japanese commentary role at the end there i think! Pretty sure mine's the standard exhaust & it has a mad sound off it, not sure wat fruity is but it could be that lol Must record it to put up & see if it's normal...
  14. Looks nice and subtle but damn she moves! Had a few challengers tonight, Civic Type R and Audi A4 1.8 T, both were dots in the rear view after a few seconds!! Civic Type R .... was it a real one? or a rice-fake? ..... you must have some mods in ur car that you dont know about, cos i'm pretty sure a genuine civic Type R can keep up with a tezza if he/she really wanted to Maybe it does have some mods i dont know about, has an after market exhaust or just the back box, not sure if its a full system though, Im talking about the 1.6 Type R, it was a 97', and as know said( as i discovered last night) no problem keeping up with and Intergra type R(had him on the straights but his handled better) If u wanna knock over to us at some stage I'll have a look over it for ya mate. Am a mechanic as well as an Altezza owner :P

    Err3 Issue

    Since I bought my car I've been using the cd changer constantly with no problems what so ever (apart from it being a bit slow changing cds :P). Been a bit paranoid about the Err3 thing so never have more than 5 CDs in it (no idea if this makes any difference). My question is: is it just a matter of time till it does jam & does it only jam with 6 cds or something like that that you can avoid???
  17. Thanks mate, ye she's just crying out to be lowered now. Can't find any lowering springs or reasonably priced coilovers tho:(
  18. Haha, just meant general area lol. Ye South Dublin myself, should meet up when u get the new motor & give us a look... Just put up a few pics of my car here, still haven't had a chance to take some proper 1s tho... Haven't had her rolling roaded yet, but think she'll be goin on on Sat week down in Enfield...
  19. Just thought I'd stick up a few pics of my baby. Still haven't done a proper shoot of her but hopefully I'll get around to it soon. Want some of my new HIDs :D
  20. Hi Noel, Just got my hands on an Rs200 up in Dublin, just waiting to get it NCT'ed, just a few quick questions from a noob if you dont mind. 1. Did yours come with those side skirts and front lip? if not where did u get them? 2. Have you done any performance mods to yours, if so what and where did u get the work done? 3. What BHP were you pushing out when you bought it? and whats she at now? Sorry for all the questions, just cant stop thinking about my car while waiting another week to get it! Cheers Hey mate, where bouts are u in Dub? There's a fair few Altezzas popping up Lately! Have mine around 2 months, brought it in myself & absolutely love it! :D
