IRLRs200

Finally picked up my car yesterday, will post up some pictures after she gets a polishing in the morning!

Hey guys finally picked up my RS200 yesterday, absolutely love it!! as soon as i picked it up it ****** rain for a few hours! its the same colour Noel has, lovely colour up close! Nice tidy car, Ill give it a good polishing in the morning(weather permitting!) and post up some pics asap. If any Dublin based members want to meet up and have a look, it would be nice to get opinions and advice face to face!

i have a DB Audio 12" Raptor 1100w and an In Phase 1200w 2 chanel amplifier. Im currently in the process of transferring them over from my Civic to RS200, i got them off icebuyer.co.uk, got good advice off the sales lads there. hopefully it sounds as good in the Tez as it did in the Civic. I will let you know how i get on with the install after the weekend. From what i know your better of having a seperate 2 channel amp that matches the RMS of the Subwoofer, then a smaller seperate amp for the 4 speakers.

well the M50 in Dublin is similar to a runway, i could try on that!!

I was thinking that too, but it would be nice to know how much you can get flat out on the "track" of course.

Ye chips that wouldn't be much use, were in km/h now in Ireland. Thanks for the input anyway

Yeah "Track Days" thats what i need it 4!! :P So whats the most you got out of yours at the "track" Noel? Did you fit one of these too?

Just curious has anyone changed the standard speedo in the RS200 to show your speed when you doing more than 180km( not that i drive at this illegal speed!) Do i need to replace the whole unit with an aftermarket? Do i have to get it delimited? So many questions and i havent even picked the car up yet! 14 hours and counting!!

Ye mines a manual, i'm sure it wil sound very similar. I should have the car tommorrow just getting it registered. I was going to get the garage to NCT it but ill have to wait 3 weeks for a slot. No way i could wait that long! so ill just go and sit at one of the test centres and wait for a cancellation. No point in putting the filter on before the NCT.... one reason less for them too fail my baby!! ill post up a clip too when i get mine installed. see if there is a difference! On the same note on the Taka Kaira site it recommends that you purchase the Super AFC-2 when you but a filter but didn't know that sensor could handle teh difference in airflow. Cheers Noel

Hi Noel that intake sounds great did you fit it yourself? If so what a big job or fairly straight-forward "bolt here", "insert A into pipe C" or more than that? Do you have to get the ECU settings or anything like changed after you install the kit because of the more air coming into the engine? Another quick question, what is that little aerial thing you have on your dash to the right of your steering wheel? i noticed it on your video clip

Hi guys picking up my RS200 in the next day or 2, just waiting for it to get registered. First thing i need to get on it is an alarm and immobiliser. Thinking something along the lines of a clifford, not too expensive, 500 Euro fitted(max). Should i buy one online? anyone know a good place i can get one installed in Ireland?

I think red it is so , thanks for the help guys. ill post pics when im done

great improvement Robin, really tidies it up a lot, gives it a fresh look. I have so much work to do when i get mine!

ok so where can i get this RON juice? and do u have to use it on a continuous basis or can yo u just stick it in 4 instant power boost. Dont really know much about different fuel types, Goin from a civic 1.4 to a RS200 so ill have to start researching more to get the most out of my baby!!

thanks for all the welcomes i should have one within the next fortnight. i have a *cough* contact in lexus who's keeping an eye out for me. anything but green, really. so black, silver or gun metal grey i suppose. blue would be ok. been trying to figure out the difference between the IS200 and IS200 sport. is there a simple explanation? Hello and welcome.... Sport also has nicer pedals and steering wheel..... What do you mean " blue would be ok" ?......... blue is the BEST colour :P :P :P Better still get an RS200 instead..... in blue of course :winky: As Noel said blue is the best. I'll have mine on Friday Hopefully. Blue RS200! I know a place that has 2 more in Stock if ur interested shim Think they are silver though! I can find out if interested.

Sorry dont sound to mean like a total noob but whats mr morse talkin about? What is RON and is it just a nick name for Unleaded 95? There is a good Shell down the road from me, ill check it out tommorrow and see are they still stocking V-Power

Hi Noel, i thought i saw a few places that do it, do the Shell garages not do something similar: Shell V-Power? Never actually used it so i don't know how it peforms. Can you not just use standard unleaded 95 and use some of them additive bottles you can buy to bring it up to Unleaded 98

Thanks Noel these were actually the ones i was looking at them. Adding them to the list of stuff to buy!

Cool Noel thanks for the Info, dont think i could afford to run it on super unleaded al the time!! maybe just for the cruises and that! Does the every be any lexus club meets in Ireland? How much did that APEXI induction kit set you back? Have to get myself a good alarm first so i can sleep safe at night knowing ill at least here the alarm going off as someone tries to rob it!

Hey guys heres a pic of the current state of my calipers and wheel hub. As you can see the hub is gone fairly rusty looking. i only bought the car so just trying to tidy it up a bit. Trying to decide what colours to go for and need some advice from members with similar colour altezzas. Cheers picture of my Altezza

Hi guys just wondering if anyone has used www.eiretyres.com to get any tyres for their Rs200. Does anyone know whats a good set of tyres(that wont break the bank!) i can get to fit the standard 17" alloy that comes on the Rs200. Anyone from Ireland get these fitted in Dublin?

Hows things Dizz, i live in south Dublin area, not going to givin an exact dress for all those thievin bastards to come try and take my new baby!! Hows yours running? any problems since you got it? How much is she pushing out? any pics?

Thanks for the Welcome lads, Just replied to one of your posts in the Altezza section Noel, have a look if you have a chance. So many questions don't know where to start!! i'll probably be the forums biggest pain in the *****!!

Hi Noel, Just got my hands on an Rs200 up in Dublin, just waiting to get it NCT'ed, just a few quick questions from a noob if you dont mind. 1. Did yours come with those side skirts and front lip? if not where did u get them? 2. Have you done any performance mods to yours, if so what and where did u get the work done? 3. What BHP were you pushing out when you bought it? and whats she at now? Sorry for all the questions, just cant stop thinking about my car while waiting another week to get it! Cheers

Hi guys just a quick intro to say hi. The site seems really good and helpful, not sure if there is many Irish members here. looking forward to asking everyone everything about anything to do with my new car! My avatar is my baby, just awaiting it to get NCT'ed. Cheers
