The prices I was quoted for Ball joints as a set include fitting was 215.00 GBP so its not that bad

Hey, Sorted!! It was my Anti Roll Bar link or both sides.. At Last :winky:

Hello m8 :)

If ya going to get anti roll bushes, you must tell then your model. As the uk front bushes are smaller compared to the Altezza model. I paid 23.48 GBP at Lexus and thats for the RS model. So good luck m8.

Hello M8, Thx for the reply, Its not a clicking noise, more of a squeeking and cracking noise. Lucky I have warranty on the car, depending if its worn then I have to folk out money or damaged then they folk out insted. I let you know m8

Hiya ppl.

Need your help on finding the niose coming from the front end of the car. Recenty I've changed all four shocks and the anti roll bar bushes. But the noise only happens on uneven roads. eg speed humps(even going over at low speed). Can you tell me what it is? as i'm getting annoyed :tsktsk:

Hiya Guys :P

Need help on my Altezza. Recently I have had a cracking noise from my shocks so I changed all 4 shocks, then got new front bushes. Then still the same noise. What can it be?. Anti-Roll Bar? It only happens on uneven roads. I really need to sort this out as I'm getting abit annoyed of this car. btw the noise is now coming from the back of the car now..

Ok news really!!! Its going to take 8 weeks!! :o. They have to order the coilovers from japan!! At least its coming. Thanks for the link.

Thanks for your reply :D

I've phone Tein, They don't have stock of the basic Tein coilovers. Even if they do they only have the Tein SS with upper mounts and that the end of June. Ive tried Elite in rainham, which is also a tein mechant, still have no stock. Im willing to spend around 500 pounds.

might know some places over here that have them in stock but not sure how much the shipping will be to the UK, might be cheaper to get the Ferry over and pick them up yourself!!

Did you try here?

Your a top guy m8 :D

First thing in the morning I'm going to phone and see if they have the stock!!! Fingers crossed

Thanks for your reply :D

Everytime I give the car a good thashing on motorways, then after when I drive normaly, theres a nasty jerk, eg Nautral to drive, then when the car changes gears theres also a jerk aswell. What can this be?. Could it be the cluch? Please help as I'm getting really annoyed. :tsktsk:

Ive been driving my Altezza for 3 months now!!! And I've never looked back. Its just a really good car!!. :). By the way, do you guys have meetings in London?

Thanks mate!!! Just realised that I put the HID bulbs the wrong way!!! :o , now the beams aiming on the floor not in the sky. Cheer's for your reply.

Just installed my Catz 5700k HID lights, but need to adjust the beam. As I am dazzling drivers with my light. How and where do I adjust then. Please advise.. :)

Guys!!! I'm going to purchase a set off HID Light's for my Altezza. But I'm buying it from Hong Kong. Will it past the MOT?. I'm not sure if it's E marked. Please adive.. :) Feel abit worried if it fails, I have to put back the standard one's.

Hi again!!!

Anybody know where I can get spoilers or skirts for a Altezza. I'm based in Central London. Ive checked on eBay, buy nothing really I like. Even reconditioned ones would be OK. :D

Hi guys!!! Would it be recommended for me to change to Tein Coilovers Basic damper set. Its for normal driving conditions. Please advise.

No worries..... keep us updated.

Regards,

Jamie

Finally my car's sorted out!!! :D. In fact there was nothing wrong with the Speed Censor or the Speed convertor. It was down to bad wiring of the speed convertor. Luckly my brother in law who works for RK Tuning, had a look. Saved me hundreds of pounds. Thanks for your replys anyway. Hopefully nothing else go's wrong now.

In the past I have known this to be the Speed Sensor, usually located in the gear box.

An auto electrician will be able to confirm this for you though.

Maybe someone else will be able to confirm or provide an alternative solution?

Regards,

Jamie

Thank's Jamie!!!

Just spoke to JEM in collindale , London. They say its down to two possible faults. Speed convertor chips or the speed senor. If it's the speed chip it's 250 pounds and if its the sensor 50 pounds. Well I'm going there later to have it checked out. I let you know on the out come. Thanks for your reply m8.

Can anyone help me!!

I was driving in my RS 200 Altezza, when my speed dial suddenly dropped. Its was reading 0mph while I was driving!!. Could it be my speed convertor or my dials which has packed up?. Its happens quiet offen now. But all the other dials work fine!!. Luckly I avoided most of the speed camera's going to work. And would you know where I can take my car to have it checked. I live in Central London. I can't be driving like this..................

check in buy and sell section there is at least 2 in there.

Other than that plenty in scrappys use 247spares.co.uk

This site is fantastic!!! Looking at side skirts ant the moment and other parts. Thanks for that site!!!! :D

What kinda thing you looking for? I recently fitted the Lexus styling kit to my car, got the front bumper off ebay and the rest from a dealer, didn't end up costing too much.

So many different kits available for the IS/Altezza - guess you need to browse around to see what you like :winky:

Well, I like the High Spoiler, on the RS Models. but don't have any idea where to find one. Most important is to make my car sporty!!! :D How much did you pay and you got any photo's I can see as well.

Can any1 help me!! I'm after a bodykit for my car!! I'm based in London, so if any1 knows where i can locate one please let me know!!!! Thanks... :D
