  1. ok so i got automatic is200, and it´'s been raining here for 2 days and i want to drift roundabouts! but there is no way to get it sideways, i've tried to stomp the pedal in 2gear to make it kickdown in first no luck, tried to go fast in first then rip the steering wheel no luck, it´s wet outside my friends TDI omega auto can do roundabouts! how can i make it drift roundabouts? i alwayys understeer way to much and don´t even spin tire.
  2. How many of you guys have done the Acis valve mod? My is200 auto is pretty sluggish until i hit 4k rpm i heard if open it the car will be quicker up revs. Like
  3. Thanx! Yeah there are but most of them are auto, there are not many is300 here less than 30! Also we sometimes joke about lexus being toyota in suits :)We can use studded tires over the winter or all season tires if we want.
  4. Ok so, im new here and just got lexus is200 few days ago, first Lexus ever owned had over 25 cars im 22 years old. But this is how it looked when i got it, upper photo is 2 week old the lower one is how the is now on summer wheels.. Put on lowering springs, xenon,yellow fog lights, led interior lights, led licence plate light and window visors! Still got few more things to do like painting my OEM 17 inch rims white, decat the exhaust and new CD player. Few photos of the car! My uncles is200 stock height vs mine lowered both on 16 winter tires! 2 week old photo vs now Stock height vs lowered
  5. Snow tyres?? I think you'll only slide if you are doing silly speeds and yanking the steering wheel extremely to one side. Wheel alignment also plays an important part, my brothers celica with bad front tyres understeers on mild turns, my old CTR corners like rails. snow tires (studded) we call them nail tires here in Iceland, yeah the power isnt that much in those cars you really have to yank them if your gonna go sideways or be on very bad tires
  6. Okei thanx guys! Im currently on nail tires brand new so i got no worries at the moment, i was pretty nervous because my uncle is also on new tires but not nails and his car slides in roundabouts! Btw i came from w210 e430 benz and that car didnt slide in rain even on bad tires! Not that i tried haha.
  7. so i just got is200 automatic and my uncle has one just like mine expect his stock height im lowered.. and he is always warning me that those cars are very tailhappy in wet? is that true?
