    Naw... I was thinking about something along the lines of a Apexi Power Intake Air Filter System ( complete kit->> http://www.racinglab.com/appowinairfi.html). Didn't notice any difference with that fitted to my Altezza apart from a lot more noise when you put the foot down , gets a bit annoying after a few weeks. You might gain 2-3 bhp max

    Yes 6 coil packs mate. your car will be ok for the code reader :D Sorry didn't know there was a way to diagnose the issue electronically! Well there isn't over in Ireland for Altezza's, its just the ol' trial and error procedure!
  3. IRLRs200
    Take the coil packs out and physically examine, for signs of damage. Dont buy one secondhand just asking for trouble. buy one and them replace one at atime until u find the bad one

    unfortunately cars cost more in Ireland compared to most other EU countries because of the stupid Vehicle Registration Tax. You can get a 2002 one for similar money Carzone link Alternatively you could look for an Altezza Gita which is the import version of the sportcross, Remember the tax on a 3 litre will be 1500 a year!!

    IS300 Arbs fit an Altezza i think and is200 arb's fit an altezza. pm dave @ Prolex he should know, always gets back to you sharpish

    I got the same one of ebay for a 15 GBP delivered. Look identical to the TTE one if you cask me Seems price has gone up since i got it Ebay link

    Over here 96.6 cent(72.3p) per litre of E85(104 Ron Birofuel) Price hasn't gone up since i started using it 6 months ago. You use about 30% more but cleaner more powerful fuel! Still works out cheaper on average

    I have since highered the rear up a few mm and it seems to be a bit better. I'll try to adjust the dampening to make it stiffer at the rear so it doesn't bottom out under load as much i hope

    Good man Bobby! on the ball!

    Cheers, don't think ill bother doing anything with the coilovers, probably just put standard shocks back on with lowering springs. Probably getting rid of the car soon so don't want o put any more money into it really!

    whats the expected final bhp of a supercharged is300? who makes the supercharger?
  12. IRLRs200
    Its coming from Honk Hong so not sure if the radio will work over here, only place i can see it for sale is ebay

    Had an Apexi induction kit on mine and have since changed to Drop in Apexi panel filter and its a lot better. Not sure if its cover in oil cant see this affecting the sensor. i think unless its the induction kit is mapped properly you won't see the full benefit of it and might actually lose torque, well mine was!

    It's a "TOM'S" 280T (factory turbo-ed) :) must be a good bit more available as 280bhp was the magic figure in Japan but i can't see them just making a turbo version thats on it's limits.... I'd say if it was running on 100 Ron fuel on the day it would have got better figures. slight pinking from only running it on 99 Ron the operator said so he eased off.

    Is it possible to replace the springs on aftermarket coilovers. just wondering if replacing the springs on my D2 coilovers would make them more comfortable for the quality Irish roads. Is there much of a difference between TTE and Tein springs? Here's what the springs on them are like: Most of the roads are travel on a daily basis have major roads works on them im afraid the huge potholes etc my do some serious damage to my coilovers
  16. IRLRs200
    Its a WALD wide arch kit. Looks great in the flesh i think
  17. IRLRs200
    Damn thats low at the rear, no way you could drive it like that on the quality Irish roads! Not a fan of that RS200 badge though
  18. IRLRs200
    ye not bad Bobby! Thats a good video, did you make it yourself? :shutit:
  19. IRLRs200
    Had a pair on mine, They aren't the best to be honest, the custom made ones, Got these ones of fleebay, quality is so much better and the fit is perfect compared to the first ones
  20. IRLRs200
    remember Aztec, the veilside will sound yotally different on a IS200 compared to the altezza. Ill try get up a short vid of the exhaust @ idle on mine
  21. IRLRs200
    Cant fault my HKS silent only time its silent really though is on idle. Love deep him when you put the foot down. Looks tasty too!
  22. IRLRs200
    As far as i know the Maf sensor monitors the amount of air coming into the engine and the temperature of the air, could be totally broken so the ecu doesnt know what to do . Not sure if this causes misfire. maybe take it out and give it a clean with electrical contact cleaner
  23. IRLRs200
    Faulty MAF sensor?
  24. IRLRs200
    havent been able to find them anywhere else, unless that site gives a toyota part number, you could try Toyota, but i would imagine they would cost even more from them!
  25. IRLRs200
    Replacement ones can be got from Japanparts, few different types this site, none with angel eyes as these dont come as standard, so you will probably need a pair. Hope that helps
