  1. Has anybody got the part number for the eibach springs for the IS200? I'm going to buy some from a dealer near me and want to make sure i get the correct ones. Also will be fitting them myself to save money. The guys fitting them with me have done so in the past on Supras, so i'm assuming there's not much difference... Is this correct? Also they have the spring compressor thingy.. So are they easy to fit?? Obviously i'll get an alignment check done after a couple of weeks at wheels in motion or somewhere, along with the supras. Thanks Adie
  2. I think Anees was after a set. PM him to see if he still wants them. Although judging from his posts hes still undecided :P
  3. I found i couldnt get any copied cds to work in my 2001 IS. So on long journeys just take the ipod instead. Plus it holds a lot more tunes on it :D
  4. I agree.. It'll be interesting to see how fast the Lexus are that are racing on LOC Track Attack
  5. Oh and bhp was 160 at the wheels
  6. Had a dyno done this morning at Abbey motorsport. What a difference it makes to go to a proper garage. Cant speak more highly of the place. All employees were more than helpfull. All seemed concerned about my car and all my previous worries. After the bloke had done the dyno run, he showed me what he had done and thoroughly explained everything to me. Talking about the graphs and the Lexus car and Altezza in generall. I showed him my previous figures and graphs. After he stopped laughing at the graphs, he compared everything and the conclusion was... My previous dyno run the bloke had set the gear ratio up wrong and he didn't really have a clue about my car. Also the graphs were of no use and he might aswell of made them up, ( probably did). The graphs also included fuel management, and for my car being standard (supercharged but having standard exhaust, pre cats etc) is running extremely well. The only thing, i am losing power through, is the standard exhaust. (He gave me an address for a jap web site, but that will be another thread). Also he put Bazza's graph on top of mine and there was only 10bhp less on mine being standard. Thats with his having induction kit and better exhaust. Bazza please correct me if this is wrong. I'm only going by what he told me and the graphs. But i would appreciate your opinion in this matter anyway. The torque graph was still not that straight, but that is because of the variable valve timing that the car is equiped with( something like that). So all in all extremely pleased. Only gripe... Now to spend MORE money :P
  7. They look f :tsktsk: d mate. Mine still look great but close up, the gold is starting to change to orange around the edges. They are also 24k gold plated off some geezer off ebay. Not sure mine are going funny because i've gone round the edges when i've been putting on the klasse aio? Have you been polishing them? If so what with? My assumption is not to polish them and then see what happens. If they still discolour let me know and i'll order some more chrome ones with you. See if we can get a group buy Adie
  8. Been out again washing mine. Alot better in the warm weather. Just put 3rd layer of sealant glaze on. Very shiney B) :D
  9. i may be wrong but i`m sure there around 200 quid, ← 200 quid :o Whats the actuall difference between these and the jdm ones? Are they just deeper? The courtesy car i had 04 plate had one and im sure there is not much difference
