  1. I will keep this short with a picture. I gave this up for a Lexus GSF.. enough said.
  2. I have never owned a force induced car. I jumped from a V10 BMW M5, into a V8 Mercedes C63 AMG, and now into a V8 Lexus GSF. I am a dying breed and will soon run out of options... and end up in a Tesla.
  3. I'm landing in London on the 16th! Wait for me!
  4. Very easy to install, 20mm spacers do not require you to change out your studs, so it's a straight forward installation. Takes minutes. the only thing I've noticed while driving is the sharpness in turning. That's pretty much it. Yes, the Viper is mine. It's a 1st Gen early 93 with 7k miles on the clock. She's my pride and joy.
  5. You want a good stance? 15mm all around would be nice. You want a more leveled stance? Then 20mm front and 15mm back would be great. You want an aggressive stance like mine? Go for 20mm all around. Here's a video https://youtu.be/jZwqlbvdWUA
  6. Got the car lowered on RSR Springs, and installed camber arms as to have the cambers adjusted to factory during alignment. I also replaced my Tanabe's with Greddy's. https://youtu.be/jVrfPyRlbKc
  7. Took off the Tanabe's and got the Greddy Supreme SP's installed. Tanabe's sounded great but droned like hell and the tips weren't aggressive enough for me. The Greddy's are much quieter and look great and give off a howl at higher RPMs which is awesome. I'll have a few drive by and in cabin videos up soon. Enjoy https://youtu.be/zITXhgw8pQM
  8. Same planet as yours but in a different market I'm afraid. Thank you for the information, I had no idea. We never had them in this part of the planet. I didn't even know the 250 existed.
  9. I don't believe there was an FSport version of the 2nd Gen IS to come out of the factory. Everything you see on this car has been put on by the owner after purchase.
  10. A short review on my custom steering wheel. Hope you find it useful... https://youtu.be/5IpyuFvae1s
  11. Oh look, did someone post a pic of their piece??? Nothing like a good old TWS Ice Man Renailt F1 edition. Had this one for 10 years, not a single scratch.
  12. Absolutely, I'll get on it right away and get back to you with their quote and a shipping cost as well. No worries mate. You may also want to consider getting the trunk mat that goes with the spare wheel for the GSF. Here's a video of the trunk before removing the spare. https://youtu.be/4ti-KpmLMWw
  13. Hi there, The OEM spare wheel my car with was not the a GSF wheel. It was what some people would call.. a transport wheel? Here's a picture of the wheel.
  14. If the Pursuit of Perfection is to be properly implemented as far as this Brand is concerned.. then our local Lexus representatives EK Kanoo are the definition of it! We are not only blessed but very fortunate to have a dealer who understands today's demands and needs. They have grown to adapt to the market segments as a whole and have truly stuck to their values and commitments to customers. We must have the only dealer on the planet who will sell you a brand new Lexus, and modify the hell out of it and still honour your warranty. At EK Kanoo they will honour your warranty no matter what you have installed to the car, in fact, their subsidiary at Kanoo Performance will do the modifications for you! From the simplest exhaust and intake upgrades to a full blown supercharger kit! NO PROBLEM
  15. Thank you very much. The shine you see is the interior treatment that was made along with the paint correction and coating. It will be wiped away in a few days after it's cured. So to answer your question, it's not always glossy.
  16. Great write up! I actually got rid of my spare and put a trunk liner from a GS350 instead. Here's a video before and after Before After
  17. Walk - Around #2 with ceramic coat job complete!
  18. A closer look at the Tanabe Axle Backs and remote engine start stop from key FOB
  19. New member signing in from Bahrain. The land of smiles! I also live in London where I visit often.
