Here is a link of the car with all fitted, the car is slightly on a slope but hopefully you's will get a fair idea of what it looks like!

I'd. Rather sell the full set but I would do the fronts for 40 plus il get a courier quote, where do you need them courierd too?

Hi I have my full set advertised for 60 if you'd be interested in that price? Courier can be arranged too...

Hi I've fitted the eibach pro kit to the standard shocks myself, as stated above, the front has dropped very nicely (perfectly in my eyes...)

The rear does sit slightly higher than the front but the handling of the car has been transformed and that's before I even get the car aligned.

Very happy I proceeded with the springs.

Thanks for all the advice.

Pics to follow...

Hi I haven't lowered it yet but the springs have arrived.

Car is away getting trd kit fitted but once I have it back I will post a few pics.

I look forward to seeing your pics!

Wow, it really looks well and sits lovely.

Gorgeous car.

I've decided to proceed and order the eibach pro kit but I must now also consider the wheel spacers too! So 15mm front and 20mm will be ok with my standard 17 5 spoke alloys?

Have 215/45 all round...

Don't want any rubbing issues just want to fill the arches out!..

Interesting...

Coilovers may be the way to go after all.

I look forward to seeing your pics.

Thanks andy

Hi thanks that's definitely helped.

I will wait and see how bouncy the ride is...

Coilovers will probably be a bit on the stuff side for me...

Possibly upgrading my shock absorbers with the eibach springs will be an option...

Any particular shocks that works well with eibachs?!:

I have a 2004 Is 200 Sport and only want to slightly lower it by about 15-20mm.

Mainly just looking to improve handling and stiffin up the ride.

There is a set of these on eBay at the minute for £160 plus £20 postage.

Im tempted but does anyone have a pic of their car with these springs fitted to standard shocks as i just want to have an idea of what they will look like?!

thanks.

Its ok simisker i managed to find a full kit here in ireland in plastic, currently getting painted, hopefully all will be fitted in the next week!

Not expecting it to be easy but I'm prepared to wait and to be honest don't mind paying a bit extra just as long as it's a genuine plastic kit, not interested in replica kits as they can be got here easily for 300..

If anyone has any numbers for people who would be willing to deliver a kit to Republic of Ireland I would appreciate that!...

My local dealers are saying that the genuine front splitters and trd grills cannot be bought new anymore. I've also tried every scrapyard and breaker in Ireland to see if they have any but no joy..:

I'm wondering is there any places in the uk where I may find a splitter. Or even a full kit!

It has to be plastic and NOT fibreglass though!..

I have an inky 2002 Lexus is200 with 152000 miles which is slightly rough around the edges but drives very tight and honest, it's great fun and handles abuse well!

I also have an immaculate 04 is200 sport in a very rare blue colour which Im very fond off. I have never seen another one on the roads at all! It has 61000 miles and is the tidiest car I have ever owned. Would love to fit a trd kit and possibly lower slightly 40mm at the very most and maybe upgrade the CD player to a dvd/iPod player. Don't want to mess with originality too much!

For anyone reading this with similar symptoms just to confirm the problem has been resolved with a second hand catylytic converter. I replaced the exhaust manifold which has got 2 built in cats. When I peered in one of them, it was clear the insides had broken apart and blocked the cat.

I still have the engine light on but car drives perfect now. Thanks for all the help guys!

Bump

So I guess going by the previous codes, it's the bank 1 sensor 1 lamda sensor that has failed. Is this the one that is visible to the left as you look in the engine bay?

Guys I got another scan today and I've been told the lamda sensor in bank 1 is showing a fault. Am I right that there is 2 sensors for banks 1-2?. Also does bank 1 cover cylinders 1-3 or 4-6?. Thanks

So can anyone tell me where the PCV valve is situated in the is200?!?

Great help thanks Chris.

will post up how i get on trying to sort it!

Got it scanned again since engine light was on.

showed a 171 and 174 code.

Mechanic translated that as engine running too lean.

He advised to change the throttle body again as he thinks the one i got was also a dud,

although the car was behaving the same as it was before i changed the throttle body which leads me to believe that something else is causing this trouble...

Lovely lexus you have btw ChrisIS200SportTTE!

Hi everyone, I just bought a 2002 is200 sport which drove perfectly when I bought it but I noticed it is not revving very well. If I floor it in neutral it only revs up to 3500-4000 then backs off even with my foot still down...

I had the car scanned but no faults were recorded although since I've had it scanned the engine management light has come on.

I've replaced the throttle body but has had no effect at all on the drive.

Anybody have any clue what else could be causing this problem?!

Hi folks just joined up to get some advice for when I need it! Have an 02 is200 sport in inky blue which I have about 2 weeks, very happy with it so far!.
