IRLRs200

Can anyone point me in the direction of a fairly decent Hotel in Oxford, near the University if possible, flying over at the end of the month for a few days to do a bit of work,

Thanks for the reply guys.

@ IRLRs200- I will have a look around. Do you Know of any places in Dublin or near enough. Cheers

@MonsterMat- I am in Ireland so its probably easiest getting them here. If all else fails I will confirm parts needed and see what you can do. Much appreciated.

cant remember off the top of my head but check the Autotrader as there is a couple advertised in that , in the breakers section. ill ask around for you try get a definite place :winky:

Today I completely lost the back end. It came out of nowhere as i exited a round about into a bend resulting in me :tsktsk: smashing into a kerb almost sideways then bouncing the front of a guard rail. The rear wheel took the most damage as it hit a milisecond before the front. It wasnt even drivable. Basically the rear wheel was after twisting in at the back and sticking way out at the font. I nearly cried when i got out to look.

Anyway turns out to be the lower wishbone ( think thats what its called) and some other link busted. I also need a new back wheel as its badly marked but suprisingly not buckeled. Are the suspension parts the same as the IS200 and are they only available from Toyota or can i get spurious parts from a motor factor. Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Darren.

parts are the same you should be able to get them all from Toyota, there is a few altezzas for breaking around Ireland that might save you a few quid

Probably sell up and get some "M power"! Might have lots of goodies for sale of i cant shift it though

Dont slag my quality editing skills! Wish i had a turbo

Thats a very nice looking motor and rare too....have you seen this tuned altezza?

Ye i was there at the dyno :winky: Only one i know of in Ireland/UK if not Europe. Overtaking in 6th gear in this thing is effortless!

Anyone have any opinions on the 01 BMW M3 E46? good? bad? Thinking of upgrading. Please don't hate me!

no i just got the bhp at the wheels,

not the best of pictures,

think there is a few factors that can affect hoe the fly figure is calculated and i think if its not done there and then by the dyno operator i think any thing else would be guess work! 163 @ wheels sound good to me, more than mine got the first time it was dyno'ed, might be getting mine dyno;ed again before the end of the week so ill ask the guy how its calculated @ fly

come on, some one?

Does your dyno print out not have power @ wheels and fly?

ill be grand so! im traveling to /Germany in FEB, run my car on E85(Ethanol) so ill be fine!! few Jerry cans in the boot. "Ich verstehe sie nicht!"

Hi you run your car on E85(Ethanol)? That's really interesting, because up to know I thought it's not possible. The reason is that a few month ago I found a lexus statement, that the engines are note suiteable for E85(Ethanol). What kind of system you are using?

Maybe we should start a thread for alternative gas like E85(Ethanol), LPG, CNG and so on. I'm running my IS300 since 2 years on LPG (Autogas). It's cheap and is working perfect....

Best Regards

Been using it in my car for the last 6 months or so, using this system. Either start a new thread or PM me for more info

TDi?

Stav

was thinking TDI, but a good bit out of the way, Ill probably be geting the ferry into to either liverpool or Holyhead and working in Oxford so is there anywhere decent around them areas? also thinking Thor racing? thats on the route i think?

anyone??? Ok any places near London, i could drive there one of the days, ill be over there for about a week

Welcome to the club matey enjoy? :D this is the chap a few of the guys have used in the past click me might be worth giving him a shout?? :)

this guy can do it but i think its quite expensive, 400/500GBP i think. I just use a TOM on mine and am converting the motorised screen soon to play off my dvd player

Ill going to work in Oxford for a few days in Oxford(hopefully they will let me drive over) I i can bring the car i'd like to get a dyno run in somewhere near Oxford, and maybe get a LOC meet in? Any suggestions?

Oh brilliant :D .... thanks very very much :)

well done to Jamie too ... had me worried ;)

Well done Noel

Silver IS350 is my bonus

Worked for a large Scandinavian fuel company when i was younger, we each got a selection box one year! Cant complain this year though, got a 2 grand xmas bonus, huge xmas party with 2000 people free food and drink all night. Twas a good year

try this site: Japanparts

It isn't cheap though, about 500-600 Euro plus delivery and customs if not more,

Wow that's dear enough... Is that the best you'll get them from

ur probably best off trying to get one second hand. or a diiferent bumper maybe, plently of other, more unique bumpers out there

Got my car dyno'd @ thor racing, 163.7 Bhp at the rear hubs, how do you calculate the bhp at the fly wheel?

not sure to be honest! we all got our figures @ fly

Have a look at my Autoleads Facia Mod Post.

This could help you decide what you want to do.

The only problem is the increased cost for the Toyota part, plus you

will need major mods to it to still retain your heated seat switches.

Read the thread, walthru & pics to show how I modded mine.

no heated seats in the Altezza!

Ups... no idea about ext. amp... :(

Check behind your glovebox on the left hand side, if you see a small amp(think its black with small silver end caps)

Hi all,

I´m going to change my OEM 6cd changer of my IS300 Sportcross Sat-Nav for the 2-Din Alpine multimedia unit (IVA W-202R)

I´ve got the fascia adapter but.... I need the ISO connector. Where can I get one??

Thanks for your help.

Maax H. from Madrid. Spain.

If u have external amp in ur audio system:

Click here to get one of these adapters.

Is the autoleads cheapo £12-15 adapter worth using or is it better to put more money in and get a genuine one?

Had on autoleads one and the only way i think it looks good in the dash is if you respray it following DJ Wozza's guide. have the Toyota one now, much better!

You can contact the webmaster of JapanParts.com. I bought my JDM parts there.

The japanparts reference is : 041-004-046 - 1 DIN MULTI BOX - for SXE10/ GXE10 - JP ¥7,400.00 - US $65.46

Ye priced the cubby box from Toyota, 150 euro!!

i only have the part number for the facia plate, not the cubby box

double din facia plate 55413-53010

cubby box 08171-00020
