  1. Belt is 5PK800. You can use contitech as they are much cheaper.
  2. I like it. The wheel arches :) Yummi. Are they carbon? Seems to be a car casting for Fast&TheFurious 3: LINK
  3. Gallery of future movie stars? LINK
  4. What about UK...? I'm out... searching my soul....
  5. We found out that the OEM 16 inch are made by ENKEI. And that ENKEI deliveres many (perhaps all) Japanese car manufacturers. So could it be possible that the shown OEM Rim is done by enkei? --------edit ENKEI is part of YHI International Limited: LINK They do about 1.2Mio wheels/year OZ is also part of this group...
  6. lol :D This one is very close (MB Italia 011): Japan... hmmm. who does them? Which plant?
  7. Ah, Japanese Institute of Labour Seems to be something like TUV? LINK
  8. What you can see from the outside is "JIL". Dunno what it means. Italy... interesting...
  9. Does anybody know the origin name of the wheels? Or who is the manufacturer?
  10. This is interesting. My German plate would look like this: LINK It's a PITA that we are not allowed to have something like this. Everything is pressed into precepts over here :yack:
  11. And you have to dyno the IS200 in 5th gear I believe!
  12. Ah you mean this ugly film/deposit in the inletpiping? My supercharger had done about 60000miles before it was fitted to my car and I cleaned masses of this residue out off the s/c inlet/outlet and bypass...
  13. What is it for? Seems worthless to me....
  14. You should decide to sell your car... LOL... Your IS looked nice. Sorry, this thread over there isn't worth it. Two faiths fighting each other. We don't want to evangelise ... I always have a very arrogant smile on my face while driving my car..... cool car... very cool car .... Will never sell it. Will look forward for a SC400 ....
  15. So it should be okay. You can even feel that a flywheel is worn (bumps and groovs in the friction area).
  16. Did they check and machine your OEM flywheel before they fitted the Helix clutch? I see that your car has done about 60.000miles already. Learn: LINK Did they check for the correct stepping of your OEM Flywheel wether it is even or not/worn? They only have to use a lamp and a fine ruler to get a first impression... If there is something wrong you will be surprised what your clutch plate looks like now after it is gone...... overheated on the outside, very much dust falling... you should be there while they build it apart ;)
  17. So the Snout is more like on this s/c: The longer shaft. This means it seem worthless for us with the short snout :) I had time to compare the s/c noise with redneck's 2 weeks ago. Mine has done about 75.000 Miles and it is MUCH louder. But VERY cool. I like it. But for me Louder=Worn but not damaged at all. I only found this and want to know if we also have this coupler and if it is worth to replace it after 100.000 miles... awaiting seller response...
  18. Supercharger coupler: From here: LINK He says: I asked him what else do I need. Material and skill.. What is a "snout"? Is it the cover behind the pulley? Any comments on this? ------------ More Items: Rotor bearings: LINK Snout rebuild kit: LINK
  19. Perhaps the connector near the handbrake is loose. Its under the leather cover...
