im pretty confident i ccan do all the work myself and save £300 :) as for the haynes manual thats gutting! will i need any torque settings come to think of it?
-
Nice looking car, i also have a knackered cd player. Ive had a look about and you can buy a new fascia that replaces the stock cd player and gives room for a new one and room for cd's etc. I hope you get something like this so it can give me an idea of my options Stani
-
I would think so. Lets hope somebody on here can tell us and i will sell them yeah
-
American based i think. I got them from ireland though lol
-
Yeah im getting everything for £350. Buy a haynes for torque settings and im off :D

some more pictures from last night now lowered/personal plate and HID's next weekend i plan to fit 30mm hubcentric wheel spacers, LED rear lights, tidy the calipers up, fit new timing belt kit, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, new oil, new coolant, spark plugs and all new belts. stani

yeah ive just fitted 50mm springs and they are good. just dont do what i did and go over a speedbump a little too fast. the bounce from the front wheel going over the bump made the passenger sill scuff. the speedbumps i went over were big though any other ones taking it easy will clear no bother. ive just bought 30mm spacers for all wheels so ill update with that once there done. may need some stretched tyres! also ive had a look and the guy i got the springs from has more sets. just looks like he hasnt relisted on ebay. im sure he will soon just search: lexus is200 tenzo springs

if you were closer to me (dundee) i wouldnt mind highering (if thats a word) it for you with my standard front springs ive just took off. only thing is im always busy so finding the time would be hard.
-
its ok i got one from toyota today for £2.49
-
so has your car been lowered at the front only?
-
ill get one from toyota?? nearest lexus is 50 miles away
-
im with the policy shop, got them through a compare website. i have payed £2000 though but they were the cheapest i could find -
this happened on the last bolt after lowering my car at the weekend. does anyone have a spare one?? also its a rear one thanks
-
next on my list to do are replace all belts include timing and full service. what do people recommend to use on an is200?
-
looking good, which bodykit is that??
-
cheers, i wish the front went down slightly more. would be good to see other cars that have been lowered 50mm to see if there is a difference. just bought some hubcentric 30mm wheel spacers too as the arches needs filled badly!
-
thats it done now, for anyone interested in doing this it took me 3 hours to do all 4 corners. very happy with the ride comfort and how the car sits.
-
Cheers for the reply. I managed to get the front done today, didnt need to undo anything apart from the shock. I turned the wheel on full lock and got it out that way. I can say it sits perfect and once ive done the rears tomorrow ill get pictures up! Stani
-
Right i was on the car for half an hour this morning then i had to work but in that half an hour i didnt even get the front shock out! Does anything else have to come off?? Or is there a way of doing it cause it doesnt want to fo past the top arm of the hub

Have I Got The Right Lowering Springs?
stani1029 replied to stani1029's topic in Brakes & Suspension
So would you recommend fitting them? Will it be more bouncy or stiff? -
Basically i bought tenzo 50mm springs about 4 weeks ago. Eventually got them today but its got is300 2001 onwards on the box. I have an is200 2000 model. Just need confirmation please
-
ive bought 50mm ones for £110 delivered new, ill let you know if there worth it and put up pictures to give an idea
-
just putting up my progress so far and will update as i go day i bought the car start of september photos from today things to come soon are personal plate, HID kits, 50mm lowering springs, tint windows. need advice on what colour to put calipers, i have the lexus stickers for them in white but the colour im still unsure. im thinking black??
-
my only problem is i cant see them fitted on the pictures on ebay. they might look good but once fitted may not be my taste. the LED ones sound good, and the covers ive seen but does anyone have pictures of them fitted on a car? my cars that dark grey colour. ill put pictures up soon once ive finished what i want to do to it :) cheers
-
on an is200 the rear lights are just not doing it for me. what is the next best thing? cheers
