  1. lol sorry mate, i will dig it out today, and get it of to you monday :D
  2. That would be the Hydraulic bearing, for the clutch.... :D and yes he is out now lol :D
  3. This should be on its way from the NZ in about 3 to 4 weeks time :D and here is a pic of what my IS was like :) happy days.......
  4. as to the guys 1st post he is not 100% on things like this, so i would have to say dont try and do this your self, take it some where to get done it will not cost to much as long as you have the parts :) you could all ways come down to me in gravesend and i will do it for you if you like, im happy to help if i can :D
  5. yes this will be ok till next month mate, :) as long as that is the only place you have seen some oil, just keep an eye on it, take alook every 3 to 4 days just to be on the safe side....
  6. Hi Marcus, long time no see Price for the IS-F is approx £50K I like the wald kit, but not the rear splitter as it is, needs to be colour coded. 50K hmm i do like the look of the IS-F but ..........wait for it........if i had cash like that to put into a car, (you are not going to like me for saying this) i think i would go with the M5 there is one round by me, what can i say.....all you think is WOW thats nice, P.S the IS-F needs this kit, if you ask me they should give you the opt to have this fitted before you pick it up :),
  7. They are good place to buy from as they will take back anything that dont fit as it should, i have got bits of them in the past, :D top items at a very good price i would say......
  8. can i ask whats the price tag for the IS-F
  9. I will try and get up to this one, have not been to the ACE in a long time :D
  10. thats bad put up over £100 i'm paying 368 fully comp i'm 28 and have my 25 year old wife as a named driver and thats with a 150 excess! thats a good price, can i ask who's that with ? thats with direct choice mate it was the best i could get!i'm a mechanic working for toyota and the wife is a traffic cop. i live in penicuik as well. yea traffic cop helps lol
  11. That's actually a good point, London gets worse every year and yet my premium still dropped by over £100. That makes no sense, unless the sheep have turned to car crime.......... :P (Sorry cheap shot ) London, is a big place with lots of cars to pick from so the % of your car geting nicked is low as there are so many, thats why, but where he is, theres no one around, so if you was looking for an IS to nick where would you get it from some where there is 10,000 car driveing around, or some where where there is only 50 car and no one to see or hear you take ??
  12. thats bad put up over £100 i'm paying 368 fully comp i'm 28 and have my 25 year old wife as a named driver and thats with a 150 excess! thats a good price, can i ask who's that with ?
  13. you are 23 and you are ****** for paying 800+, im 38 and im still paying 450, you work it out, it all come down to, where you are in the UK and where the car is over night, and how long you have been driveing, if i was 23 and had a IS200 and was asked to pay 700, i would be lol all the way to the bank ( and thinking to myself they must of f*ed up some where lol )
  14. Hi mate, I did buy a HKS V-Pro for my V8 setup, but then i sold it on, i got put/off as i know of only 1 or 2 place's who can map it 1 being TDI and the 2nd one being some 500 miles away. so now when the time comes to have the ECU fitted im takeing it to Thor as well to have the Links-Plus ECU as i have talked to roger about it. and from what i have been told, its alot better than the V-Pro .........go have a look on thor website Ad
  15. Ad mate this hasbeen going on so long now, i do feel for you :( get them to put a Links ECU in it and sell the V-Pro on mate, i know its more cash to lay out, ;)
  16. well its like this when you start to think about doing something to your car, and then start the work, you then do things to your car that you had not planed to do, so then it takes longer and more cash, i have done alot to my IS that i had not planed on doing when i 1st started the project. Exactly. I understand completely mate as it has been the same for me and all the extra bits (electrontics/I.C.E related) that I have done to my car. I hope you understand I wasn't having a pop, just merely being ironic related to my own experience at modifying my car, and my empathy with you for all the hard work/head scratching that people won't really know about when they see your car as a finished article. Hi mate, yea i know you was not haveing a pop :D hope you dont think i was..... lol
  17. well its like this when you start to think about doing something to your car, and then start the work, you then do things to your car that you had not planed to do, so then it takes longer and more cash, i have done alot to my IS that i had not planed on doing when i 1st started the project. its only taken me this long as i have not had the cash, for someone who has the cash sitting there, you could well have this done in 2 - 3 months, where it has taken me 20 but then i am turboing this as well, it would have been done months ago if did not have to make a turbo setup for it...
  18. like he says Ellz, the guy has gone for the V160 as he has put V8 in his supra, and i think his setup when done will be somewhere around the 800BHP. I have had the R154 before i got the V8 lol but as time went on i was thinking of useing the auto box that came with the V8 to save some time lol, but then i started to think about it, the auto box can only take around 300BHP and with that. thats no much good to me as i will be running more than that, so im going to stick with the R154 Box, like i said i have just got hold of a flywheel and Quarter master Twin plate clutch and Bearing assembly of that guy :D its come all the way from NZ
  19. over the past week i have been looking at flywheels and clutches & hydraulic bearing assemblies, I got a PM of one of the members on the V8 site that i go on, that was useing the same gearbox as me (R154) but he is now going to use the V160 (think he said) and he ask me if i would like to buy all the parts he has :) so i have now got all the bits comeing from him, flywheel + Quarter master Twin plate clutch and Bearing assembly :D
  20. well what can i say .....:D 1 hell of a fight... Joe got put down in the 1st round and then came back to beat Roy up, with a nice big cut over the left eye, WOW what a fight, from 2nd round on joe was playing with him all the way :D with the speed of his hands roy was no where to be seen.........went 12 rounds Joe won 118 to roys 109 dam good fight
  21. the one i ended up geting was for a honda, but it was a custom made for a honda, but it was the size i was looking for so i got it, and at the price it was up for i could not pass it up :) Coolio, i'm thinking i might try and use the standard IS rad as i will be making a air scoop directing flow straight over the intercooler and the radiator and then out of the bonnet, hopefully if this is efficient enough a smaller lighter rad might be possible. Do you know what turboooos you going for ? yea i was going to use the IS rad but i needed one with a biger core, as i think the IS core is only 25/30mm where the one i have now is 50mm turbo, im useing is T3/T4.....good for about 400,BHP so it should work well :)
  22. sounds like a good day......:D @dave your mail/box is full mate, been trying to PM you........;)
  23. the one i ended up geting was for a honda, but it was a custom made for a honda, but it was the size i was looking for so i got it, and at the price it was up for i could not pass it up :)
  24. Just read this on another forum i go on... can anyone confirm? i dont think anything will come of this...............for one how do you put to much back! as the engine can only have so many parts to make an engine, my understanding they can replace any part on the engine ( for safety of the driver) but not the engine itself I think if the FIA take anything away from him now, that would be the end of FIA
