  1. for brand new parts u never goin to beat nengun unless theres a super sales on at autobac, but second parts will be the gold dust over here!!!! will you be able to find any?
  2. not a good investment, if u want a good investment find something rare here big modding potential, with some rare parts good rims, nissan 180, s15, jzx110 crown, evo 6.5 etc if u want more info on that drop me a pm and also im extreamly intereste in the TRD catalogue also when would u be coming over if we ask you to bring some parts over, how long would it arrive an how much is everything included?? thanks Frankie
  3. really for a genuine one? i would have through its would be an 100% perfect fitment as the nissan genuine one i used was like soooo perfect!!!
  4. thank you!!! would u know have any c-west style bumper other than the lagana one?as looking at your web site there wasnt much there! thanks
  5. right, been searching for a while for a c-west bumper for sale!!! has anyone got one or know where to get one?? i ve heard that the replica one are like a bitach to fit but how bad is it? and also has any one had a genuien one?? cos im sure that they are made of different material? the proper are made out of plastic like the OEM bumper but replica are made of FRP as i have had countless of them on my s13 while i do a lot of drift days, as soons as they touch a cone they shatter into million pieces!!!! so anyone got a second hand one??? also anyone got a good condition 3sge 6MT head for sale???? thanks Frankie
  6. fancy this its my car with geniune mileage http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...showtopic=59937
  7. how do u not get attached to the s15?its one of the best looking car other than a white altezza!!! im selling my altezza just because i miss the s-body sooooo much
  8. ok, if i wanted to get the head and valves ported and flowed, would it be better to get a manuel head to have this done or should i just do it on my as200 head? also compression ratio? is that due to piston or just valves? what other difference are there between the auto and manuel? thanks
  9. l yes i was thinking an ecu too, but if i change it i would propably want the motec one, because in later day i wouldnt need to upgrade it!!! or if im just goin to light tune the car im sourceing a TRD or Tom's one.....which would just be a plug and play!
  10. thanks Build the 3SGE up... forged rods and lower comp pistons, 800cc injectors, upgraded fuel pump, ECU and a GT30 should get your 400+ wheel HP and not ruin the balance of the car.... which would be a shame considering how much you have spent on handling mods! There is loads of info on built 3S's on the MR2 forum www.mr2oc.com. By the way if you ever have an accident and decide to part it out let me know hahhaa! Nathan ts P.S. my car was already white when I bought it... white is by far the toughest colour for altezza's thats for sure! i never like the idea of tuning a high compression engine to a low one, just sort of feels like that car is losing it's "soul" if u know what i mean!!! so is the engine exactly the same as the mr2, i mean technically? e.g. size, compression, ratio ans stuff?
  11. thats obviously with uprated internals, totally different head for sure and maybe some con-rod!! but i heard some rumours that does the manuel altezza have titiaanium valve springs as standard? or thats just crap? oh really??? how much would you charge if i were to get you to make up some for me?? is it that u using a ae-111's quad setup? thanks oh shix ur about 7500 miles away!!!! but still would u do it?
  12. yes thats what im afride of too, just cost and the time!
  13. right, guys since i brough the car off gary, the car been lovely and love the ride, havent done much apart from sprayed it white here is the mod when i brough it. Carbon bonnet, RSR manifold 4-2-1, Buddy Club Spec II exhaust, HKS Racing Suction Reloaded, HKS Hipermax suspension, TRD 2way LSD + 4.7 final gear, Cusco front camber kit, Carbing cooling plate, TRD oil cap, TRD themo, BILLION radiator cap, BILLION coolant pipe, BILLION exhaust wrap, Spilte Fire direct ingnition bridge, TRD black housing headlight (blue back lens) with 6500k HID, TRD carbon grill, TRD front upper strut brace, TRD rear upper brace, Rear boot brace, TRD front and rear lower brace, Toms front tension rod, TOMS front and rear lower tie brace, Full TRD bushes all round, TRD engine mount and gearbox mount, TRD instrument with center rev, TRD short shift, TRD anti-roll bar (yellow), Defi BF water temp, oil temp, exhaust temp, oil pressure, 17" Black Super Advan with 225/40/17 all round, Manual conversion, Helix Cerametalic Clutch, Cusco light flywheel, Carbon GD mirror, Ikeya pillow tension rod so the car handles like a dream, but im not sure but in my opinion, all car with electric throttle body is a bit slow on the pick up, so i was thinking of a power upgrade, but here is the quesion, should i spend over 5k to mode N/A or have a 1jz twin turbo engine put in? N/A- trd individual throttle bodies, higher lift cams, titanium spring, ported etc so simply get the head upgraded all run under a motec ecu to rev up til about 11k rpm this conversion would cost around 4-6k resulting max of 270-300BHP or engine transplant- 1jz twin turbo from a soerar or a chaser which is a 2500cc twin turbo stright six, which will be 280 even on standard ecu also benfits on one of the best gear box around which is the R154 box, this set up can easily be tuned til around 350-400 with one or two bit extras!! this would cost around 3-4k but power is unlimited, but what is in my mind is that if im not sure if i had a different engine put in it might feel different..... and also, if monster matt see this please give me a brife idea of how hard was it to change to the 2jz engine please, thank you so what is your opinion on power upgrade??? thanks
  14. so did got round fitted but relised that some how its not getting enough pressure to push through the cooler, and hense no pressure the car just would started. maybe a bigger oil pump would solve the problem???? so has no one fitted one?? mine is a yank item with filter relocated...
  15. so trying to fit one yesterday.....with sandwich and oil relocated? but no pressure after it was fitted... anyone had this problem?? thanks
  16. mr prolex could you confirm that im on the list or not because i have paid!!!
  17. yea talking about hand brakes, lexus altezza's hand brakes are really good as standard.... you think so....... ive found they only become effective after a bit of work, could be my 255 rears that make the handbrake work a tad more...but im not that impressed i do have a plan in the pipeline for a more effective handbrake as i said standard........maybe u dont find that is because ur car is no where near standard....... and u should try standard nissan hand brakes compair to these as im not "BDC" level.....i suppose
  18. yea talking about hand brakes, lexus altezza's hand brakes are really good as standard....
  19. i think reading a map is great...but dangous when driving at silly speed on unresisable twisty b roads!!!!
  20. you need to concentrate more on weight shifting to initiate than worry about Hp....the ae86's only have about 3 hp, but because you throw them around, you can get good angle....they use there weight to initiate, yes i know how to use the weight and do the "scandanivan swing"........ just feels as the car like to pull stight alot, and dont really like it being side ways.... maybe due to a short wheel base??
  21. mate no one is wrong for asking a quesion...im from a friendly world ha..... so yea its fairly simple actually u really should start off easy like doing a dount or something......turn the traction control off might be a good advice.... just image ur doin a wheel spin hard.......and start turning the wheels and u should feel the rear end stepping out....its all about feels!!!! if ur want more info go to www.driftworks.com..... everything u need is on there!!!!! btw.....how do i get a gold signture?????i am a gold member!!!! trying to contact steve???but him pm is full!!!
  22. no im not goin to norfolk arena on the 7th, cant make it yet and its was only the first time i drifted in the altezza, so still need setting up and sorting out before im happy for it to do it again. yea i just need a computer unit to raise the rav limiter to about 9-9.5k than i would be more happy, as its only 7.3k at the moment and its bouncing off quiet hard as i have a 4.7 final drive too... i dont want to strip my car out as its still an everyday car!!! with my pass experience with turbo cars, i reckon if i make it up to around 250-280 Breaks than it would be a lot more easier to drift!!! one thing i found with drifting with altezza,....its sooooooooo fuel eco friendly i only used a little over half a tank!!!!!!
  23. i am coming now!!!!! could someone like give me a post code for it please? and its now 5 lexus....if altezza counts!!!!!
  24. Thanks to gary...i took this little jem off him!!!!!! tyres was advan a048 on the front the rear was anything that make smokes and no.....i cant quiet drift in this yet....its hard work on N/A cars really when im so use to turbo power!!!!ha
