  1. ive filled up 69.26 litres once (as you can see it scarred for life) resorted to doing 40 on a national speed limit A road so i cud get to a petrol station. got overtaken by grannies!!! ive pushed my luck in my last car and actually run out so it wasnt worth the risking doing normal speeds!
  2. i was having a look at the prolex website and i was wondering... not much has been said about the HKS Legamax exhaust on the forum, has anyone got one for their IS? If so whats the sound like, loud and obtrusive (boy racer) or deep and bassy? Thanks!
  3. ahh i get it now!!! i will actually look out 4 it from now on something new everyday...
  4. I saw those when I was looking, but was put off by him trying the old postage rip-off trick, no need to send recorded. :tsktsk: whats the postge rip off trick? sorry if i sound silly...
  5. i went for these in white for my red calipers, really good quality decals and theyre bigger than some of the others on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LEXUS-IS200-BRAKE-CA...2|39:1|240:1318 also the fact that the decals are curved make them look better on the car imo. i think theyre the same decals from the second post
  6. any chance of a few pics? i know you said its not at all loud but is there any change at all in sound, eg: volume and tone wise?
  7. i was considering a janspeed, raising the money as we speak infact. can u get back to us on how it looks and sounds once you fit it?
  8. hey guys the exhaust i first posted says its for the is300, does that mean it wont fit on a 200?
  9. is that for the one i posted or the second one that Hitnrun posted? also if it is for mine wht would that push the total price up to? Might not be worth it in the end...
  10. thanks for all your help aswell parthiban! as well as asi and aido. hope i have this and my spoiler put on by the next london or SE meet, i hated being the only almost fully stock IS at the first Ace meet. sorry gotta add rob to the thank you's, didnt see that last comment
  11. thats it... ive heard enough! cheap, not quite as unknown as previously believed AND has an exhaust baffle (thanks aztec) im gonna buy it soon as some debt collection is conducted!
  12. i have a bad feeling (well good feeling really) that i am going to end up buying this exhaust, parthiban you said youve heard of HP Racing, have you heard good things or bad. When i went to the site they only had alloys on there which made me think something fishy is going on...
  13. ah right! this exhaust is getting more and more appealing! cheap, can be made quieter or louder, did i mention cheap? do you reckon there will be a power gain at all, or a loss even, like on the powerflow? im really sorry about the amount of questions, i just wanna get a really nice exhaust, it the first car ive had that deserves to be pampered! and ive just caught the modding bug, well i always had it, never had the capital!
  14. i will probably sound very silly now but..... silencer baffle? and where abouts is it located, just for future reference. sorry for the questions!
  15. is there a reason for straight cut being better or is that just personal choice? now that youve said its a bargain i wouldnt mind going for it, its just that it has to be quiet at idle/low revs or i WILL get my windows smashed by my neighbours, its happened to a boy racer. i dont wanna get it here and find out its doin 100dB ALL the time!
  16. ooh do i wanna be the test dummy??? the biggest thing that is putting me off is the fact that its quite cheap... do you think there is any quality in the product for that kind of price?
  17. how far out are we talking? enough to look unsightly? would it fit in the oem non sport bumper cut out (if that makes any sense) i know the video has sound but what does it sound like outside the car, i usually leave 4 work quite early in the morning and come from from mates houses quite late, dont wanna disturb the neighbours too much cos they moaners. need something almost silent at low revs and as loud as can go at high revs thanks 4 the help so far guys also... why does it even stick out further cos its US spec
  18. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LEXUS-IS-30...sQ5fAccessories looking desperately for a superdragger or janspeed, while doing so stumbled upon this.... i know its cheap and no thats not why im considering it! just wondering what the knowledgeable people of the LOC think....
  19. will do!, just gotta learn how to post pics! expecting it sometime in the next 2 days, pics up by some next week
  20. Great news! 1)got the 1 sorted vti showed me, should arrive soon 2)the bodyshop guy said hes got some paint left over for my car from a recent scuff i had that he resprayed, so he'll do it for free! again i have to say thanks alot guys!
  21. just asked the body shop guy next to my mechanic,he said 15-20 max, maybe even less, he wants to see it before he gives me a certain price. thats not bad at all, near enough half the price they wanted for a sprayed one! thanks 4 all the help.
  22. i like the price of that 1 a lot more! i will search harder, the only reason i was even considering the expensive 1 was cos it was already painted. thanks 4 your help all!
  23. £20!!! one question.... where from?!?! i would love to spend as little as possible on it!
  24. those spoilers are nice but i find them a bit 'big' sespecially the hoop one. i like the smaller bmw style one. @lex28 whats the paint job like? or did u get the unpainted one? also is it of decent quality at all?
  25. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Painted-Lexus-IS200-...2|39:1|240:1318 just found this on the bay.... just wanted to know if anyone has one of these and would you recommend it or not, its not bad for the price and it'll be painted already, really wanted a trd one but can not find it anywhere for a reasonable price (lexus dealerships want 260 or something ridiculous and it will just be primed) thanks guys!
