  1. Hi,

    I have a brand new set (still never open from TRD boxes) of the following TRD Competition bushing for sale.

    a) Steering Rack Bushing

    B) Suspension Bushing Set

    c) Rear Suspension Member Bushing Set

    The above is suitable for IS200 or RS200.

    Interested parties, Kindly give an offer for the above-mentioned products cos I am changing car soon.

  2. im picking up my lexus is200 tomorrow im going to change the wheels but im not sure weather to fit 17s or 18s basiclly with the car fully loaded will i get problems with the wheels rubbing the arches with the standard suspension and low profiles :unsure:

    From my experience, having the 18inch rim looks great but the downside is the initial take off speed as compared to the 17inch is much slower which mean a little sluggish.

  3. It all comes down to budget (unfortunatly)..

    The first thing you'll probably want to do is replace the exhaust, and here is a handy guide.

    After that, well, if you've got the money then the supercharger is the 'most efficient' increase (approx 215bhp with S/C), but it does cost 3 grand (GBP).

    If that is out of your budget, then consider an induction kit, which is in the 300GBP range.

    The combination of induction/exhaust wont significantly improve your bhp figures, but the engine will rev more freely, and the car will feel quicker.

    The ECU I'd reccomend is the 'Piggy Back' which is explained in detail on TDi's website, this will help you get the most out of the above mods, and as they are configured to get the best from the car, this should be done after you have the 'planned' mods.

    Other things you may want to consider are: 2.4litre stroker kit, lightened flywheel, Nitrous Oxide...

    Hi, Anyone done the stroker kit and care to share his/her experience after the upgrade. Thank you.

  4. You are planning to change your timing belt?.  According to BM, our timing belt will last up to 150,000km

    There have been 'issues' with IS200 timing belts failing WAY before their due date.

    Dealer tech recently showed me one he was doing - looked worryingly frayed!!

    Warned me to keep an eye on mine - not easy to get a look at though.

    Well, have them to check at 125,000 or 130,000km to play safe.

  5. Hi all,

    I was told that besides changing the timing belt, one also needs to change 3 other belts on the engine, such as the alternator belt, fan belt....

    For the 3 other belts, I can see the size number : 3PK900, 4PK9?0 and 4PK1070. But I cannot ascertain the timing belt size unless I took out those engine covers.

    Can some kind soul provide me the sizes of the belts as well as the TOYOTA parts numbers. I have also noticed that the belts are maunufactued by MITSUBOSHI (not mitsubishi ;-) ).

    thanks

    Hi John,

  6. I think the weight is about 10kg and shipment cost really depend on which courier u choose. We have DHL, TNT, UPS, Singapore Post etc in Singapore. I think it is much better if you could send a mail to AUTOFIX and ask them to quote you the price including shipping cost to your country. Alternatively you can give AUTOFIX a call at 65-64544940 and look for Chris.
