Welcome to the club :)
-
A lot of people do it that way now, and will be doing that for the forseeable future as anything that is held in stock in small companies is just losing money!
-
Welcome to the site mate :)
-
I had my ARBs fitted when I just had the standard Sport suspension mate and you'll definitely feel the difference the second you hit a big roundabout :)
-
Nice one, welcome to the club :D
-
Bloody hell I was hoping we were going to see some proper tatties in here That looks quality though mate, are you basing that on some existing artwork or is it something that you or someone else has drawn up? Noticed from your car interior that you like your dragons mate!
-
Actually looks like you may need an additional sensor for boost - Anees has this hooked up in his car mate :)
-
Aye should be fine mate, they can read allsorts! Here's the Blitz one: http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/Product-177.aspx And the HKS one: http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3474 :)
-
Do you have two sticks in the engine bay? If so one of them should be for checking the tranny oil I think? -
Aye just let the dealer sort it mate, they provided it, just tell them it's the wrong one and they should be able to swap it, they're good for stuff like that usually :D
-
I think it's a great idea, practical as well if you ever break down as it'll be just like pushing a shopping trolley
-
Another option for all that is either the HKS CAMP system like Anees has in his car or the Blitz R-VIT DS which both plug into the OBD port and then into a screen where they output all the info!
-
Well stone me I just went and had a nosey at how these looked and to be honest I was happy with them - thing is I already ordered another type which are popular in the USA so I'll compare them but these look nice colourwise in the numberplate surround on mine!
-
Welcome to the club :D Whereabouts is the heat coming from - just the engine bay?
-
I think these alloys were diamond cut - it would probably be difficult to get them all to the same finish so whatever way you do it, either painting the one or getting the three diamond cut you'd probably need to get all 4 done just so they all look the same.
-
Cheers for the heads up mate :D I actually just went to the shop to buy some Heineken to get me prepared, I can't wait to come over and have some of that ice cold stuff!
-
Just stuck these in the Aristo and that's at a 45 degree angle too - will see what they're like but reckon I'll swap em back over to the normal bulbs or inverted :) I've got some blue PIAA ones hiding away somewhere but I'd be getting pulled instantly for them - got away with them great on the IS as the HIDs masked them but I'd be getting my pants pulled down with those in the Aristo To be fair for LEDs these do seem really bright, I might have a quick wander to Halfords to swap them out though.
-
That's come out mega, black looks great when it's clean :D
-
Jimmy over on the other side just put his black one up for sale mate? The sound system as standard I think is really good, I had to replace the subwoofer recently and another has popped on me so got to replace that now but it's a decent system :)
-
For proper dish mate look into some of the Jap brands such as Work, also some good ones if you go to the Wheelmania UK site and go to the Silver section (for some reason that's where they hide the proper brands!) Also, for proper dish, check out some SSR Viennas - they are totally insane as they tend to offer some of the deepest dish alloys I've ever seen in my life!
-
Awesome pics there mate!
-
I think the problem with the bumpers is probably due to the way they've been painted in the past - you notice that on a lot of cars as those parts are plastic and seem to react to the paint differently? The paint on these is a solid black too, it's not clearcoated, and these do seem to have quite a bit of orange peel which would need professional work to get totally flat. If that's sorted though it does make the car look like a mirror!

Importing A Lexus Is F - From Japan
aido replied to Realitycheck77's topic in Lexus F Club - Lexus IS-F / GS-F / RC-F Club
I don't think the satnav will work either as it's not as easy as just getting a new DVD for it... -
Who's is that?!
-
I'll sponsor you dude, can't really commit to anything at the mo as I don't know if I'll be coming or going this year
