His ISF review was one the main thing that cemented my decision

Hi there! I am from Northern Ireland, might be interested in this as crowd sourcing didn’t pan out. Any additional options are on this badboy? Cheers

Sorry for the spam, but Maxton kit is on Thinking if I need rear defuser, most of them look terrible

Thanks lads for all the info. My wish-list just got more expensive. I was also looking at Bistein B6, but to be honest, I can’t fault OEM. I didn’t buy this car for comfort and I am happy how it eats all the imperfections. Weirdly enough, my wife thinks it rides softer than her Audi on Magna ride 🤔

Don't mind me asking, but what will you be upgrading suspension wise?

That's something new I've learned. I feel stupid for buying poly Figs 90 without even considering OEM alternative. At least I will know what to get if I will hate the ride 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing this with us. And about the brakes, well, I don't feel like I am getting sufficient bite and it really shows when warm. Or it could be just me as I don't believe that I've caused that much wear during few sends. To be honest, I decided to get new disks and pads and I will bed them in myself. My pad choice is Ferodo DS2500 as I am familiar with then and I did loved how they performed on my BMW.

Thank you mate, I think you hit the nail on me head. By the way, how does GSF bushes feel? I bet it gives much softer ride, what about the roll?

Thank you, I wouldn't call it misfortune, but it fuels my OCD and it does ruin my experience with the car. This and the brake fade, but at least I know what to do with brakes 😄 Glad you liked it! EU funding schemes don't reflect much on the road quality, I would even argue that the asphalt they lay in South is worse during cold and wet conditions. It all depends on the season as well. They do have nicer tractors on the road. But nicer or not - they still make same big prostate splitting potholes like here in the Norn Iron. Even the the road layout is the same and you can fly off the road even without reaching national speed limit. That's the price you have to pay to have local farming produce on your table I guess. In Armagh we are confined to 50 mph in the city and for the most part I've not noticed the issue with the pulling for more than a year. I didn't even notice it during 1/8 runs. On the motorway I thought it was just a wind or road imperfections and I don't have luxury to drive like McGregor and I didn't care much. Now as we have some good weather and restrictions are gone and I have ability to fully "send" it like Yukihiko Yaguchi intended. Both in Bishopscourt track and Enniskillen airport, not to mention industrial sites I have access due to my work. But venues where you can enjoy your car to the fullest are still limited and I bet in Kent alone has more race tracks. Bike is a king here. I can't complain much as I never done it in the past and I was surprised how cheap, unrestrictive and accessible it is. I keep hearing that drift scene is absolutely disgrace here, but I can't complain with my stock diff 😄 Might change my mind after OS Giken diff.

Not yet. I bought myself a set of Fig 90 LCA's after hearing that OEM bushings can cause similar issues during their life-cycle. (Only noticeable at higher speeds) Not sure how true is that, but I've used it as excuse to improve the handling and reduce inner tyre war. Today I've visually checked ball joints and a subframe and everything looks and sounds ok. Did another 5 OCD runs with two sets of alloys, swapping wheels and adjusting the pressure. Still. The. Same. I've booked in Hunter-Seeker alignment with a Kwik-fit (there are no other companies that do proper geometry checks here) as I lost a previous print-out. Now I am afraid I will have to work my way through all suspension elements until I will find the culprit. I've seen similar threads on US forums... Most of the times it was LCA on earlier models like mine...

Yes, I have another set of alloys and the car does basically the same.

No, the road is perfect and flat, better than the Autobahn. I've took my wife's car an hour later day and I drove much faster with no issues. Yes, first thing I did was check the pressure. It did the same with old ones as well... One of the main reasons I've changed tyres was that pull... I wouldn't be able to tell if wheel is perfectly aligned, but according to Lexus - it is... Not sure about discs, braking is not affected at all. Both sides seem to be the same. My eyesight is left dominant, but my wife's is 20/20, and it still pulls when she was driving. She notices that even more than me. Seat position should be ok. I am just wonder what I am missing here. I've seen some Americans and Aussies having same issue and there was lad here with same problem, but they never came back how they sorted it. There was some talk about the lose subframe, but surely, Lexus should have picked it before an alignment? No mate, I have 2 sets of alloys at the moment, does the same on both. Exactly the same feel at exact same speed.

Hi there, so I have this problem when my ISF starts to pull to the left when I drive over 100 mph (private road, don't worry) and it gets progressively worse if driven faster. Good road surface, new tyres, no wind. I've took my car to Lexus and they checked my brake system (checked it for uneven wear, warping and etc), did the alignment and took it for a test drive. I've asked them about caster/camber, they said it's all green. The issue still remains. Any ideas what could I check that could influence this behaviour?

Interested in headers as I was waiting for UK manufactured ones for ages. The problem is... I live in Northern Ireland and I am still looking for garage to fit them, it's not an easy task that can be handled by some random garage. I will get in touch if all goes well.

Sorry to resurrect this old topic, but did you find one? I was also looking at the same and decided to go with stuck on.. Not sure about being subtle, but check this https://www.outcastgarage.com/products/og-designs-duckbill-trunk-carbon-fiber-lexus-is250-is350-is-f-06-13?_pos=1&_sid=22588ea90&_ss=r
