Which IS200's come with an lsd from factory ?

Does anybody know what I need to convert my car to HID lights ? Is it just bulbs ? Ive been on ebay looking and there is literally thousands of different ones for sale and all different prices. I dont know which to go for and how much to spend Thanks in advance ;) Steve

Hi guys, I was just wondering what I can do to get my IS200 to go faster, I have noticed it is really slow (This is an observation and not a complaint) Im over the moon with the car apart from a few niggles here and there which Im going to sort before I mod the car. I want to start looking for things and pricing things up to give the Lex abit more 'GO'....Is there anything I can do without supercharging or turboing as I dont want to go down that route yet. Im sure I read somewhere about remapping, haS anyone done this to an IS200 ? Cheers, Steve

Im off out for a meal tomorrow night, then chillin friday and on saturday night Im going to see the new Fast and the Furious film B) Im gonna drag the missus along.

I know what you mean mate, My last 3 cars were....Last one - VW Golf 1.9 GT TDI one before EP3 Civic Type 'R' and one before that VW Golf TDI SE. All three could shift but the VW's had plenty of torque where as the Type 'R' was a revvy lil bugger. Compaired to those 3 the lexus is really sluggish....BUT I wouldnt swap it for any of those three now, Im just gutted I didnt get a Lexus years ago. Im not in as good a financial position as last year (Credit Crunch etc). Ive only spent 2k on buying my IS200 which is going to be abit of a project as I go along but last year I was able to spend 7k on the Civic Type 'R'....I said to my Dad earlier this evening that I wish Id have spent 7k on a lexus last year instead of the Civic. Soz for my waffling lol.

Reaganlives, Where abouts in Manc are you matey ?

Im a Valeter mate and what I use for these sorts of things is 'Tar and Glue'....Bit on a clean rag and just rub it off with abit if pressure.

Its just the TRC OFF light on mine aswell, Its just flashes on and off, Mine comes on as soon as the car is started though and carries on until the engine is switched off. I dont want to take it to lexus for fear of getting spanked for something which is probably a little problem.

Thanks for the demonplates link guys, Theyre not to far from me either B)

Cheers Asi :winky:

Is there a link to see Aztecbandits homemade kit anywhere please.

Yeah Id definately be up for the santa pod show, I wont be doing any runs though as its not the fastest cat Ive owned lol

i got plates from demon.co.uk compliments the rear perfectly Cheers mate I'll check the website out for the plates. Are the wheels OEM Lexus items, Mine has the 17" 5 spokes. Sorry for all the questions, Its just Im totally new to Lexus, Only had mine 5 days lol....I am learing though.

Im with directline Im 28 with 5 years no claims but 6 points £380 is what I pay.

Ok cheers Stav, Would the best place to get this fixed be the Lexus dealership and would this be expensive ? Hey Ive just noticed youre in Lancashire mate, Any meets happen round these parts ?
