hi i have a set that came with my gs300 mark 2 genuine lexus if anygood . 

get a garage  so know one can see it to nick it . 

black on black 450 h 58 reg done 71 k ... dont know wether to leave standard or mild modd i.e coilovers alloys ... would like a carbon rear lip tho if any one knows of one looked on eBay but there all small lips would like an "f" style like i had on my 250 ....

hi my wife has just had a loan ct whilst her lex was in for recall , and we both commented on how NOISY it was for a brand new car (esp lexus ) she is currently using my moddified gs300 se/sport gen 2 ... and the ct sits on the drive ... says everything .i was going to trade her is in for a ct but the only thing i like bout the ct is nearly 60 to gallon .

HI I WAS CONTACT THROUGH eBay BY A KAREN ANDERSON

this is a scam i reported to eBay as it looked suspicious , they (eBay ) took it off some DAYS later

k.anderson asked me to deposit the amount into an accound by the shipping company  dealing with the car .... i would like to report this to the cops but they are not intere3sted in this type of crime ( they call it fraud) i call it theft of monies by deciet i.e THEFT . please be sharp when looking for a car on eBay if its toooooo cheap its not right ... 6780 pounds for a 12-3 k car

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED .. CHEERS

anyone done this ? 

hi i will be in the market for another sc  soon , do i go with a series 1 or is the facelift much better . 

also is it true up to 2002 they were hand built  ? 

find a stainless specialist in your area with good reviews  i paid 750 incl fitting from cat back on gs430 sport , and when i  said i was'nt loud enough they put 2 smaller boxes on the rear and gave me the  quieter ones as well no money difference . i used custom chrome in nuneaton warks . it may be a little out of your way tho. 

no disrespect but black wheels  hide the design of the wheel IMO  notice the black 5 slab in the back ground when these are polished they are the bomb !!!

i had my 18" f sport wheels done in shadow chrome . 

hope this helps 

i used a co. in nuneaton for my gs430 sport 700 pounds incl tips , from cat back , thinking of having my wifes 250 done as well . 

and when i get my sc430  it will be straight down there , unless its got one on lol. 

i had to clean a clio once with biege seatbelts (originally ) i tried every thing with out sucess in the end i pulled the seat belts out and jet washed them left them to dry , what a diff. a bit extreem i know but hey.

hi all what size have you got 19-20 and is there much diff in ride quality. 

Yes guy did it himself used Paul woodsport  for gearbox etc

Update: Had the exhaust sorted this cold morning. Quite difficult to find a decent stainless steel exhaust company in East Midlands as first of all the prices are ridiculous and the ones i found seem to be fully booked for weeks. I'm not going to advertise here but the guys who did the job were very professional and helpful. 

FYI i have included a drawing of the SC430 exhaust system. 

Sections 5 and 7 were rusted trough on mine and i had them replaced. They cut off straight after the lambda senors and removed the last cat also. 

Once the cambelt and radiator are replaced, i will have the back boxes done too. The car has noticeably more power and i don't awake the neighbors in the morning anymore 🙂

Prices as follows: 

Section 5: £150

Section 7: £300

Section 8: depending on the setup approx £350

Another option was to buy OEM parts from Lexus but stainless steel costs a lot less and comes with "lifetime warranty" lol.  

 

While the car was up on the ramp i had a good lookaround underneath. Common problem on Japanese cars is underside rust and this one is no exception. The oil leak is still there but it's very minor and i'm sure the new sump cover gasket will sort it.  Radiator actually looks very fresh, but i will replace it anyway as i have done on all my Lexuses and i recommend all LS/GS/SC 430 owners to be aware, that the gearbox coolant is flowing trough it. Ideal solution would be to bypass the rad and have a separate oil cooler. I'm sure many of you have fitted these already. 

was it facing a kfc in midlands ? 

It's a manual box !!!!

Doh 

as title , has anyone done this if so any difference to stock ? performance wise , used to have one in my v6 mr2 .

also what did you use / where from ? many thanks in advance

dont fall for it ?

Hi Karen is it the same Lexus c.t ?

I would get in touch with eBay an ad tell them that I informed them of this scam back in November and they removed it, they know it's a scam and did nothing to stop it being relisted . It will cost you 35 quid to take them to small claims court . What have you got to loose . eBay ought to be held accountable for their content . I'm really sorry you fell for this , but I spotted it as too good to be true I only followed it up as i wanted to out these scum bags ! 

LOL  1ST PIC

if the mating surface ihas debry on it it will cause wobble from 1st application of the brakes not 5-10 k miles later ?

hi i have the same on my wifes 250 replaced them with quality disc pads done 10k and there is a flutter , i noticed when i did her rear pads the caliper was a pita to remove i greased all the slides etc , it may be the rears arent working and putting more effort into the fronts as there was no issue when new , try looking at your rears or get your local garage to put it in the rollers and check the rear efficiancy
