BTCC was great :) sunny at Knockhill all weekend :o great racing as well ;) Andy

Hi Fredrik, sorry for the late reply, I will look into the shipping cost and let you know :) Andy

You can but they are not cheap :(

might not get the same discount tho, if a set is needed, the buyers could sort out splitting afterwards, since the parts I imagine will be packaged, a courier shouldn't be too much of a hassle to sort out for forwarding bits on I do not mind if you guys want to get together and buy a kit between you :) As long as only 5 people put their details forward to purchase these what you do with them afterwards is entirely up to you :winky: Andy

You know you want these :) :winky:

Hi Dave, yes they are unpainted. Andy

oops, thanks Tony :winky:

OK, here goes my first Group buy :) As the title says I am offering 5 TRD bodykits for the IS200 These consist of front lip, side skirts and rear skirt. Front lip http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c193/Blade918/A_022ef5b.jpg Side skirts http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c193/Blade918/A_022ef60.jpg Rear skirt http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c193/Blade918/A_022ef80.jpg The normal retail for these is £659.75 inc vat and I am offering these for the bargin price of £540 inc vat. Postage will be £20 for Fedex next day delivery. To make this buy viable I will need all 5 orders. Immediate payment will be required once I have 5 names and will need to be by debit or credit card. Sorry, no Paypal. :( The cut off date will be Fri 17th September 2010 or when I have 5 names. :) Delivery should be 1 week after all payments are processed but no longer than 2 weeks. Cheers, Andy

The caliper has been removed to see those springs otherwise you cannot see them. Andy

Yes they are the same :)

Wow that is an expensive key! I remember when the IS was facelifted in 09 that the SE-L was supposed to come with the card one as one of it's keys - I'm guessing that never happened then? Well if they do, I have not yet seen one on an IS :) Andy

These have been available from 08 for the IS series but they do not come as standard :( The IS card itself is £268.86 + vat and a cut emergency key is £23.88 + vat :o I would also be unsure if an American spec key would be on the same UK frequency as there do appear to be different spec keys around the world. I would also be willing to programme cards if needed :) Just my thoughts :) Andy

Type B: For Ali Wheel part number: 42603-53030 Looks like the Lexus retail price is £16.20+ vat Good luck Spurts Close :) £16.58 + vat Andy

ok, out of curiosity, what size does the badge need to be for the steering wheel? Andy

Now that is very interesting information, do you know how large it is? Rory any chance you could measure the size of the logo on the airbox? How much is it, if it's not too expensive I might be willing to try this out and see if it works :winky: The badge is £5.68 + vat retail :) So it will be interesting to see how big this is ;) And it is not used on any other Lexus. Andy

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if the Lexus badge on an IS300 engine cover is the same size as an IS200 airbox? I ask because the badge on the IS300 is available to buy seperately :) Andy

hi mate,well it depends on how bad the pitting is on the piston this is were common sense comes into it if it looks really bad replace it they are not to costly approx £20-£30... Hi Ormi, with the seized calliper pistons is it usually the case that one or more of them are seized and also how many pistons are there in total? Thanks There are 2 pistons per caliper :) Andy

your kidding??^^^^^^^^^^^^ done lots of these!! ill start with the most common 1)the lower piston of the caliper seizes which due to the piston not retracting makes the pads move/rub on the piston causing squeeks knocks and bangs hence why copperslip stops the problem(normally till it melts off or rubs off),one thing most tecs will push the piston back and say its not seized not the case if its even slighly hard to push back remove the piston and check!!! so on we go to warped flanges.... the heat generated by a slightly sticking caliper is amazing so the disk gets very very hot so does everything its attached too ie the flange,the flang can only get so hot so many times before it warps. 2)slides are the second one...no point in buying new ones because they can be cleaned up easy at worst you buy new slider boots and grease them up... hope that helps matey... No, I am not kidding. Most of the IS200s we see here are 1 owner cars owned by the more mature generation :) we probably have the lowest mileage cars in the country around here :) We have had a few stuck or seized calipers but no warped discs. Andy

Hi Mark, I have checked with our Techs and they have not come across this problem before Sorry I can't be much more help :( Andy

Hi Ed, you might find these useful.... Detachable tow bar PZ401-K2550-00 £561.12 + vat Tow bar (fixed) PZ408-K2552-00 £259.11 + vat Tow Bar Wiring 7 pole PZ457-K2563-00 £90.83 + vat Accessory Wiring Kit 12S PZ457-K2562-00 £46.00 + vat All Lexus parts :) Andy

Ouch, that price is just for the spoiler and that is + vat :( Have a look at this for a better idea...... http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c193/Blade918/spoiler.jpg Andy

A new bootlid with the spoiler mounting holes predrilled is £171.86 + vat but you would have the cost of spraying on top of that. Andy

OEM is either 27mm or 16mm depending which was fitted at the factory. Andy

Just checked all IS200 master cylinders and they are specific to each model only :( they are not used on any Toyota models at all. Andy

Doh, I forgot about that one
