    @Cactus to be honest I am looking to get rid of the ISF once all this has blown over. I test drove an FK8 Type R the week before lockdown and fell in love. If I was 100% keeping the ISF then I would be in for this deal so bad timing for me at the moment. Even if you had to pay full whack, you will not be disappointed with an H&S.

    If they do, expect to see a low priced Fox exhaust on eBay very soon 😉

    In my opinion owning a Fox Exhaust equipped car driven my friends H&S exhaust equipped ISF... It's the H&S every time 🙂

    Still my favourite looking car of all time. When I was 18, a guy I worked with at Barclay's took me out in his 355 Spyder. Probably slower than my ISF but the noise was intoxicating 🙂 GTS is my favourite as best of both worlds. Semi top down motoring but don't lose the F355's lines 🙂

    Just updated my post. I contacted Fox directly as they offer two different tail pipes. One inwardly rolled which I don't like and one slash/straight cut which I prefer. Also got them to coat in black

    I have the Fox exhaust fitted. Went for the straight cut tips and had them painted black. I contacted Fox in Germany directly to sort that out. It's louder than stock but there is a bit of drone now and then. My friend has the full H&S system with X-Pipe. The H&S sounds way better IMO and if I was to buy an exhaust again it would be the H&S.

    I ran yellowstuff pads for a while. Nothing bad to say about them. They were superb. I currently have Ferodo DS2500's and although superb as well, not worth being twice as much as the yellowstuff pads. Will return to yellowstuff when it's time 🙂

    I bought a pair. The bulbs are almost 12 years old so probably needs a refresh now surely? 🙂 That's be justifying spending £100 on bulbs 😉 Found some Denso ballast units for £40 brand new so worst case scenario... headlight refresh. Again... self justification here 🙂 It's nibbling away at the new car fund/keep the ISF and refresh the suspension fund though 😞

    Top 3 things about "my" ISF 1) it's mine 2) wife hates it. 3) my little boy loves it (he is 2 in March) VID_20200205_164803.mp4

    @Linas.P I was looking at that one today with my friend at work who owns a 2011 USB ISF. That one does look like a bit of a bargain. I reckon the price is low as someone will have to brave the Irish sea crossing in the current stormy climate 😉
  11. FTBBCVoodoo
    @Linas.P good work. Couldn't find that earlier. Was only searching in the F section. Have ordered a couple of Osram D4S night breakers so hopefully they will do the job.
  12. FTBBCVoodoo
    Thanks buddy. The ballasts are thankfully cheaper so will go bulbs 1st. Worst case scenario I have new bulbs and have to replace ballast 🙂
  13. FTBBCVoodoo
    Thanks bud. Think the last time I bought a bulb was for my old Saxo VTR back in 1998 when I was 18 years old trying to make my headlights look like the HIDs on the old Police Omegas 😉
  14. FTBBCVoodoo
    Slightly boring but anyone know what bulbs are needed to replace the dipped beams on a 2008 ISF. One of mine intermittently cuts out so need it replacing Check Halfrauds website but nothing obvious. Did a search on this site and couldn't find anything obvious either 😞 Found these... https://www.powerbulbs.com/product/osram-xenarc-night-breaker-laser-d4s-twin Not sure if they have the power of a million candles and no idea if that's a good price. Not bought a headlight bulb in years.

    If that's the case, I wish they could have bolted my renewal onto the end of my existing warranty as I renewed early thinking it was my last chance 😞 if I still have the car in September and I get a chance to renew then I will snap their hands off 🙂
  16. FTBBCVoodoo
    I renewed the warranty on mine the day before she turned 10. Currently runs out at end of September. You can't bolt on another 2 years on top of that. The most they can be under warranty for is 11 years and 364 days old. I already had about 6 months left on my existing Lexus warranty and they wouldn't stick it on to the end of what was remaining 😞

    @Fair and square - Project Mu make pads for the GSF. May be worth a shout if you want something decent on there. Not cheap but but could be cheaper than Lexus. http://www.modinjapan.com/project-mu-type-ns-rear-brake-pads-for-lexus-rc-f-and-gs-f.html

    It's for sale about 5 miles from where I live so if anyone wants me to take a look at it for them to save them a trip then let me know 🙂
  19. FTBBCVoodoo
    I meant that's the standard list of items you normally see on an old ISF (like mine). Nothing worse than that.
  20. FTBBCVoodoo
    MOT history of an ISF. Advisories A) Tyre Wear B) Brake Wear C) Covers fitted preventing inspection D) Child seats fitted preventing seatbelt inspection E) All the above. I had one show up for a rusted exhaust mount. Soon sorted that out. Can't have an exhaust hanging off like some MK1 Renault Clio 1.2 Equipe. 😉
  21. FTBBCVoodoo
    I did order 2 sets (1 for a mate) so not sure if it would be cheaper with just the 1.
  22. FTBBCVoodoo
    For the turbine/bladed type wheels as pictured, I believe the position is to aid brake cooling due to the fins drawing in air. In reality probably makes zero difference. I believe the later option wheels don't have a recommended side. Just front/rear.
  23. FTBBCVoodoo
    Mine cost $55 to ship.
  24. FTBBCVoodoo
    I should add I am running the wider setup so 275/30/19 at rear as well so not sure if they makes a difference to wear.
  25. FTBBCVoodoo
    Not in particular. I haven't run them at 36 since the USRS were fitted a while ago so may drop them and see if it makes a difference at all.
