E7RTS

Thanks guys, appreciate the pictures. E7RTS I am liking the idea of using sticky pads to mount the ballasts, might just get hold of some no more nails strips.

Thanks again.

Glad i could help, the sticky pads have been more than adequate for me, and i've had them on 2 different cars now :)

Hi there, this is where i bought my HIDs from:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Xenon-HID-Conversion-KIT-H1-H3-H7-H11-HB3-HB4-9006-H9-/220486482784?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item335604bb60#ht_5471wt_941

They come with a 2 year warranty, although i've bought 3 kits from this seller now and i've never had any problems.

As for mounting the ballasts, i know a few people have mounted them in different ways, but i personally used the tape that you use to stick number plates on with and mounted them in almost the exact same places as Parthiban:

Mine are 6000k and i would highly recommend them as they are mainly white with a slight hint of blue, and they light up the road really well (not as well as 4300k, but i personally prefer the white/blue colour of the 6000ks!).

Its really down to personal preference when it comes to the colour though imo :)

Hope this helps

Hi all, currently looking for a set of the 18" six spoke lexus alloy wheels for my IS200.

I'm aware these are quite desireable and rare but if anybody has any for sale, or knows of any for sale, i would appreciate it if you could let me know!

Cheers, Rich

I had been told it was pretty simple but with this weather i just thought it better to know EXACTLY what i'm doing!!

Cheers for all the help anyway, much appreciated :)

Hi all :)

Got my sport grill being delivered in a couple of days, and when i change the grill i plan to reposition the horns too.

I was just wondering if anyone has a copy of the guide to reposition the horns, as every link i seem to find to the old guide seems to not work

Any help much appreciated!

I've also just found out it's making a loud screeching noise when doing slow speed full lock turns..? Anyone got any ideas?

Does anyone know where to get a manual for these cars as Haynes don't seem to do one.

I have this exact same problem! Getting my mechanic to have a listen this week so ill keep you posted :)

Are you sure mate? And what is this?

You better harry up! Only 2 hours left

Yeah i was watching this in my eBay, wish i'd bought it to be honest, but im trying to keep to a budget before christmas, and i've decided i really need to get the springs first, car sits far too high at the moment! Just struggling to find anybody that knows where to get TTE springs from

I dont suppose you would know where to get them mate?

Thanks for letting me know about this anyway, much appreciated :)

Also looking for a chrome exhaust tip and TTE springs?

If anyone has any of these items for sale or knows where i could possibly get them from please let me know :)

i would stick to TTE springs mate. seriously these gmax ones are crap.

Yeah think i will mate, any idea where to get them?

I'm in the same boat as OEMskool, not sure which of these springs to go for!

As ive currently got the highest setup possible (standard 2000 se) i would prefer the greater drop, but to be honest the ride quality is more important to me.

Any more experiences with either of these?

Also does anybody know where to get the TTE springs as i rang Lexus Teesside the other day and they don't supply them

Welcome along mate,

Tidy looking 200 you have there, lowering will look the part, standard se springs & alloys make them sit quite high, keep us posted as to how you get on.

Cheers mate,

Yeah i know i think i've got the highest setup i could possibly have at the moment Just trying to source some TTE springs at the moment :)

Got my windows tinted today! Very happy indeed! Also uploaded some pics of my car to show you guys :) Apologies for the quality of the pictures as they were all taken on my Iphone.

The first 2 pictures are of the night i first test drove the car, and the day i bought it. The last 2 pictures were taken this afternoon, just after i got back from having the windows tinted!

Next on the list are some TTE lowering springs :)

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone has a TRD front lip for sale? Or if anyone knows where to get one?

Checked eBay and cant find one at the moment :(

Any help would be much appreciated!

welcome to the loc. i had the back half of my car done for £140 !

Thats great cheers, got mine booked in next week, getting the rear half done for £100 with a lifetime guarantee.

Next on the lists are springs :D just debating between TTE springs or 40mm Gmax springs :duh:

Cheers for the friendly welcome everyone!

Hi guys, thanks for the friendly welcome!

Will get some pics of the car up tomorrow hopefully.

Just ordered my sport grill off eBay from lexus birmingham :)

Also rang a few tinting companies to get my tints done, just wondering if anyone has had this done? And if so whats a good price? Been quoted from £80-£180?

Hi guys,

Just bought a 2000 IS200 SE in blue, and so far i'm loving it :)

Got a few subtle modifications in mind: TTE Springs, Sport Grill, Tinted Windows and HID's are the priority at the moment.

Used to have a Golf MK4 and uk-mkivs.net helped me out a great deal so i'm hoping this site will be just as helpful :)

Should have my gold membership by the end of the week also.

Just thought i'd introduce myself anyway!

Cheers

Rich
