  3. ^ ^ ^ i like you Transporter Mr Noby, as ECU's are clever the last post you have made is irrelevant as you can have software put onto the ECU so you can FLAT FLOOR SHIFT in a manual Why do you boast so much that is300 is the best car and nothing is better or ever will be,
  4. Yes mate he used the pro charger from the USA which looks a lot like a turbo but belt driven, the charger starts from post 26 here's his build thread http://www.**********club.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=7454
  5. That last post is depressing **** government
  6. ive got 2 sets atm one standard set with good tread on the tyres but need a refurb one set of Lenso RS5 but needs tyres >>>>> for sale link >>>>> http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/76845-18-lenso-rs5/ Both sets located Wolverhampton, West Midlands
  7. Just checking mate as most of the upgrades for the is300 are american ( as they didnt have the is200 over there ) so they had plenty of room but in the uk the steering column might foul on the manifold or turbo. yes it easier to supercharge but still not cheap, as long as you know how to do alot of the work or cost in someone to build it properly, turbo will more than likely be more expensive. Jim sold up as his engine blew down to poor afr readings in the map, Dino now has the kit on his 300 but have not spoke to him for a while to see how its going.
  8. Just make sure it will fit on a RHD car as iirc they foul on some parts as the steering column is on the the intake side on the LHD cars so not a problem. I know the kit is made for you engine but dose the is300 have the same or more clearance than a Supra to fit the manifold in. Thats my only concern will it fit into the is300 engine bay easy enough, also if you do get the XSpower manifold make sure you add aditional bracing as ive herd a lot of them cracking. This is why Jim went the supercharger route.
  9. My mate had a X type jag diesel said the economy was terible for a diesel. I do like jags but wouldnt like to pay for fixing one when it goes wrong get on to Phil01 on the otherside he is or was a brakedown engineer for Jag i think.
  10. Nobby you do talk a lot of s**t - being scared of a subaru legacy because its made by subaru and all that in your sig, i carnt take you serious Rory go get a 320d Msport or you can buy mine for 4k
  11. Not sure but it was off Ffrench's car look close to the c-west but its not
  12. i changed the rad in my manual not hard to do at all ,the rad i put back in was a auto i just didnt use the bottom tank if you have a auto make sure you but a rad for an auto ! Drain rad - should be a drain plug at the bottom of the rad undo all pipes and top 2 brackets Lift old rad out put new rad in do up all pipes fill with water and turn on engine with heaters on full when water goes down top up till full do this for about 10 mins so there are no airlocks. Job done have a beer. * Not sure what is in the bottom pipes water or proper coolant for the A/T box.
