i would vote Niraj but something tells me his car is now butchered

Nice Ian so the car is fixed? Lookin spanky! Thats probably just some fireworks going off in the background! My picture feels fo insignificant now!! Need to get a decent camera!

My Entry: Not the best but fingers crossed!

Looks nice and lowered

Its not a problem, that happens to mine to! unless your car actually cuts out i wouldnt worry about it.

here's a nice pix of my car in HDR photoshop i will post more later

nice, stick up some normal pics soon. Whats the spec of your car mate

Just to follow up on that - have you had to order service parts, clutch, belts, etc. Would anyone stock them locally or are you looking at weeks to import them?

Robert.

you have a pm

lads im new to this site i want to get an altezza but was wondering what is the difference in the specs also in the lexus is200 specs? any1 know wer i can get this info cheers

Welcome to the site mate Here's

alink to the different models you can get. Ideally you should try go for an L Edition with leather interior and sunroof and the 3s-Ge engine. ( best of both worlds) A few of us are meeting up on Monday in Dublin if you wanna have a look at a few ranging from standard Altezza to Turbo Charged 310bhp altezza! Pm me if ur interested

carroll and kinsella in Deansgrange said they would service mine

Incase anyone wants a few pointers on the "lingo" we speak in Dublin!!

Dublinese

Likewise, luke warm, roof bonnet and boot first, silicone blade water off, MF cloth to dry, and the work downwards a side/end at a time, blade and dry each. I only use waremer water when I'm gonna give the car another coat of P21s, or there are too many dead flies on the front - I soak the front end with car shampers/larther in warmer water for 5 minutes (and keep it wet if it's too hot) - seems to make it easier to get rid of the little mites...

Silicone blade left a lovely scratch on my bonnet! so i tend not to use it any more, must have been some grit on it

Yeah, I spoke to the doctor and will be making my way to WIM on Saturday.

Guess I'll be going for the Goodyears.

Thanks for the responses everybody.

4 Eagle f1's fitted and geometry done 600 euro(417 GBP) in Ireland

Take it handy in this one! Any pics of the new one yet?

recently bought a set of Goodyear eagle F1 GSD 3's for mine and i find the grip amazing, especially in the wet,

Seconded :D

or alternatively see on My ICE Install how I modified the Autoleads Facia

Saw your one before Wozza, too much hassle for me. I'll try that other one Noel, cheers, anyone know how the headunit actually is secured into the Toyota one, once you make your din slot?

I tried searching for the part number for the facia plate you can get from Toyota(the one that you can cut to fit the size of your HU) The one that is a better mash to the finish in the dash Anybody have it handy?

Which headunit would you recommend Stav? i wsa looking at this one. which double din would you recommend for about the same price? If the only problem with the motorised one is blocking the heater controls, i dont mind that once the motorised screen can open and close properly im happy! In general are the screens on the double dins adjustable at all? is the screen removable for security purposes?

Just wondering does anyone have a motorised screen single din headunit in their Altezza/IS? Just curious when the screen comes out does it sit properly or do the aircon dials stop it from sitting flat?

ya see i want more torque and bhp

getting to the 400bhp 500 torque would be a dream ..... i know impossible but id love to get it that way as i dont see having loads of bhp that ill never use any good

So 280 bhp isnt enough for you Ian?

engine swap would be cheaper i think. Like this guy on the NZ site:

here.

Hi there and welcome to the LOC... Lovely car you have there indeedy! Bet you're well chuffed!

BTW, Noel, How do you know it is a Qualitat edition?

All the best,

Jamie

EDIT: Just noticed the grille :)

red interior too gives it away!

Can you only stick up one pic or a few?

Prolex do them, are you just upgrading the front or replacing the faulty original? If your looking to improve handling i'd say go for a rear first as thats the end that jumps out on ya the most. Kinwaymotorsports.com also sell them and nengun.com
