Your new wheels look great. Conrats m8!

Light comes on when there is 10 litres left!

I've tried the cassette adapter of my MP3 player and sound quality was awful. Gotta find a better way to connect the player.

FYI: IS200 2002 and IS300 2002 has exactly the same breaks! (It is the fact!!! I had to prove it to get my TTE Compressed car approved in Finland)

I did not like the previous wheels you were going to get (but I did not mention it, because I did not want to make you sad:D). But these wheels look very nice!!!

I don't play too much...so I really don't need the X-Box. But I will try the Grand Theft Auto 3 game on my PC whenever it will be available.

Gap size between the tire & fender is one finger or less. The wheels are 8" wide, so the gap is less than it is with the stock wheels.

hi superchargedL, r u saying that after installing the compressor, your Hiper does not sound loud becos it is now overwhelmed by the super-charger sound ? or becos now your engine is more power with the supercharger, the Hiper sounds quieter ? [Edited on 17-3-2002 by John Lee] I think it is now a bit quieter because of the power.

I've had no problems with HKS Hiper (no problems with scarpping), I have 30mm lowered.

I am anjoying the supercharger, it makes the car feel like a CAR! (what???) It feels great, I highly recommend it to everyone. -30mm springs are on.

Yes, the exhaust looks very good!!

I bought HKS Hiper from them. No problems.

IS300 has slightly different suspension (springs & shock absorbers). Breaks are identical in IS200 and IS300 2002. But the old IS200 (1999-2001) has different breaks. All other stuff should be about same (except the engine & gearbox of course)

first one is ugly second one is too big! :D

They look great m8!!!

Full leather is not available for IS200 in Finland. I like the Leather/Ecsaine comb, maybe it is better than full leather?

Well, that sux.

The 2002 model has these new features as standard (compared to the old finnish IS200 I previously had): - Different mask/grill - Chrome exhaust tip - Higher quality materials used in dashboard - Doorspeakers look more luxurious - AT model has armrest - Window airbags - ABS brakes has EBD & Brake Assist systems - Double-locking system My car came with a sport package that includes the following: - 17" wheels with 215/45/17 tires - Sports steering wheel (two tone leather) - Tinted rear windows - Light Weight Aluminium Pedals - Alloy Scuff Plates - Sport suspensions with thicker stabilizer - Leather/Ecsaine 8-Way Multi-Adjustable Power Seats - Limited Slippery Differential (LSD) - HID headlights - Yellow foglights - Auto-dimming rear mirrors Does not the UK IS200 2002 Sport has these all features/equipment/accessories?

These figures describe it quite well.

Yes, I can feel the big difference at all RPMs. Low-end torque is better than in the standard car. The car goes like a rocket when I hit the 4000-6000 RPM. I am very happy how the car feels like now (no longer need to hit the pedal to the floor all the time like it is with the standard car:D).

Well, there is a *big* difference between the stock exhaust and the HKS Hi-Power. The HKS Hi-Power was quite loud sometimes (when driving uphill [not enough torque]) before, but it is not so loud anymore with the TTE Compressor. I can say that you will hear (deep wrooom wroomm sound) the HKS Hi-Power to the cabin sometimes. [Edited on 9-3-2002 by SuperChargedL]

There were no problems installing the kit. The mechanician who installed the kit is very skillful, he knows exactly what he is doing, he has worked for Toyota Rally Team before. Only small prob was that the ECU in the new 2002 model has a bit different wiring than the old model (the TTE instructions were for the old model), but it was easily figured out. The car feels now different (better! more powerful!), the sound of the engine is a bit different (rally-type, deep sound).

Is the *nitrous* something they did in the "Fast & the Furious"? :o What is it exactly?
