Basically im not to sure if you lot will aprecieate this or not.. got a few pictures taken for me, and i just wanted to share them with you guys, basically i brought it standard and then crashed it... being a fanny ofcourse, had the plans from the start and this just pushed me more to put my thoughts into actions. it is by no means finished... i have a aero front bumper to go on but need to get it painted first and im sure ill fins some more to do.. untill i get some proper moneys together ;) see what you think ;) On to the moody pic's.. Comments/criticism welcome.
  3. how funny!!!! well id get the coilies if i were you but they will cost more... but im thinking on getting both... but ahhh we shall see, and about you getting wider wheels.. have you got decent rubber on them? as the grips only as good as the rubber pal..
  4. exactly what im trying to do ;) and i can by no means take the credit for the photos's as they were taken for me by chris kent heres a link to his flickr account and im sure youl agree that he has some cracking shots! http://www.flickr.com/photos/51959382@N06/ this was his first car shoot and im sure there will be a few more once i have my bumper fitted and maybe more lows...

  7. ok cool so im guessing im looking out for the engine code when looking out... as i should had guessed :) sorry for a waste of your lot time haha common sense should had told me... cheers for the replys :)
  8. Basically I want to fit a different steering wheel and I know if I take the factory one off the airbag light will be on therefore disengaging the entire system... Just wondering if anyone has done or if there is a module you can buy to keep the system in check with the drivers airbag removed? Or can a resistor be put in place? If so how and if anyone has a wiring diagram that would be ace... Cheers
  9. Yeah I'm making it do that ;) and I know it wouldn't do much I just put it on to make the bay look pretty ha! And if I were you I'd get the uprated anti roll bars that will stiffen her up a treat! Cusco make some and a few other companys.... I might be getting some sometime but it's stiff enough for me at the mo! Yeah that's the one I went with IIRC. I haven't got around to sorting it yet, but from what I've read over on my.is, it looks like I need to chop an inch off my K&N induction kit to get it to fit nicely. I'd imagine that those with IS200's or standard airboxes wont experience the same issues as me though. @steveboiboi - Yeah I imagine if you're running coilovers there's little point in a brace as you're not going to get much body roll. For me its helped make the car a bit more nimble. Though i still need to sort out the 'drifting' issue I get at roundabouts :P
  10. Well I paid like 31 pound and then Just like 8 quid shipping so quite a steal and it was brand new... Got mine off the bay and off a seller called 2 fast to cool or something like that... He normally has a buy it now on one auction and a bid on the other and I got it like 10 pound off what he was asking BIN so worth a look :)
  11. Driven mine and driven it pretty hard ... Felt No reasonable difference that I can tell as I've got coilies would down and the dampers turned on stiff as fu*% so noises I normally hear seem the same... More of a showy thing IMO as it's not a solid one and had the removable bar and bolts and Allen key to tighten it So can see it helping as much as a solid? As the flex will go straight to the movable parts... Got anymore feedback on your situation?
  12. Basically will the altezza clutch fit a is200 and I'm guessing no as it's a different engine ect.... Also if this is possible will the altezza flywheel fit also??
  13. just fitted mine this second and took me 10 mins! but i suppose when you have the tools there its a touch easier... but not driven with mine just yet but when i do ill let you know if i hear or feel much difference.. cheers
  14. Lucky me then I guess haha I was wondering if it was gonna be around the 400 Mark.... So pretty glad :)

  18. just wondering what this cable does?? from the name im going to have a complete guess and be totally wrong but heyho... does it basically disengage the supercharger?? so you can have it running or not? cheers hope the questions not to cringe worthy haha!
  19. quick update.... basically car has been ready to put parts onto now for a few days just awaiting some parts to be available for me to pick up... then all will be good.... heres a list of the damage... but im afraid i dont know what things are called so some things will be pictures.... 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. basically there the bits i can see need doing..... also not pictured. .cracked a weld on what i think is the subframe. .bent the damper in multiple places. and i think thats about it, but im not to fussed on the dampers as i got some coilies lined up anyway ;) so heres how it sits at the moment with all stripped out...
