    You can check the "pinned" section on this website to get the specs and wheel specs for the IS200. (as I forgot). But regardless, it makes no difference, cos 0.5J is insignificant. Assuming your tire fit properly on the 7.5J rim, it should be able to fit even on a 8 or 7J rim without problems.

    what do you mean? You need to be specific here, do you mean: 1) the power is not on? 2) the power is on, but the screen is black? 3) the power is on, but the screen shows another color but blank? if you are asking about getting "tv" reception, then its not supposed to. You cannot play dvd on it, unless you have modded the tv itself.

    haha.. good spot scarface ..... its actually a toyota RunX. Its jdm import that has celica engine (180 or 190 hp vvtl-i) and transmission!! Some of our members have changed cars.. but still we're all buddies so they come out anyways! its all good. mixes it up a little when we go cruising! haha

    hahaha... thats only around 60% turnout .... we have around 40 cars in total in our club! .... i guess the thing is .. cos hk is pretty small, ppl dont need to drive long distances to all meetup. I mean, I live pretty far from the city, (i think i'm like the furthest that anyone actually lives away from the city) and i'm around 40km away.

    Hey folks, its been a while since i've posted our club meet pics. So here are a few for ur viewage! (the carpark should look familiar, as we've taken photoshots there before!)

    (i dont understand wave theory or much about electronics), but will something like this .. reduce or remove the distortion/noise I get on my TV/DVD HU setup? sometimes I see slight lines on the tv screen (when playing dvd) and while im stepping on the gas.

    dunno how low u want to go (practically), as on max drop, on 17" rims), my car when using flex was dropped with around 2.5" remaining between my side skirt and the ground. Couldnt handle the speed bumps and car parks, so had to raise it.

    hehe .. do wat i did. Installed a JVC single DVD head unit, running on factory speakers. I also installed a modded Altezza 7" top mounted TV to play my DVDs, now I watch Fast & Furious when I drive .... however, I need to source a new amp, as I have found that the HU just cannot produce the power when compared with my original system w/ original amp.

    from my understanding, its a one off prototype by Blitz as a project car. Havent heard such a kit being mass marketed (yet) ...

    RE 010 all the way. The RE 01x series are way better than the Dunlop SP line, especially if you drive hard in corners. When hot, the RE 01 will handle and stick much more than the dunlops! but if u r considering tire wear, then the dunlops will wear slower.

    hey waddy ... thats 20W RMS on the HU (50W per channel max), which I think its pretty much wat most single HUs do currently. Kicker / Infinity no doubt will put me back a few bucks rite?

    folks, i've replaced my stock HU with a single DVD player. However, now i need an amp to push my speakers, as the HU is too weak (even tho its 20W x 4 RMS, which seemed ok from the spec), as compared with my original HU+factory amp. What do you recommend as the best bang for the buck replacement (can I put it in place of the factory amp?) 4 channel amp that I can use for my factory speakers? I would prefer not to have to replace the factory speakers, as I think they are quite good already. btw, how much power can the factory speakers handle? Thanks!

    U need to search harder buddy. Theres tons of stuff for the IS200, contrary to what most ppl think. You can do a lot to the IS.... i mean for u guys in Europe, u have it even better as the Supercharger kit is readily available! Chassis/suspension wise.... money is the limit for modding! coilover kits available (in order of my preference): -TRD yellow -HKS hipermax LS+ -TEIN Flex then you have the others which I have no experience with: -TTE -TOMS etc etc ... as u can see lots to choose from.

    1991 Honda Accord 1995 Volvo 850 Turbo 1998 Honda CRV 2000 Audi TT Quattro 225 1994 Honda Accord 1999 Lexus IS200 In that weird order .. hehe

    can't believe they put BBS rims on it!!!
  16. BernardTamHK
    it can be done easily on the RS200 sat nav (the unit is located in the trunk beneath the spare wheel (ithink?))... but i dont know if its the same system as the IS200. i dont know the specifics, but i can ask my car audio specialist, who does all the conversions for our club's RS200s.

  18. BernardTamHK

    Hi All, The missus recently had an extremely bad experience with airfrance. I want to file a formal complaint, but realized that nowhere on their website or on the internet, can I find a decent contact and address to their HQ customer relations department. Does anyone have the name or contact of Air France's VP of Customer relations or related? The only thing I was able to find on the web, where lots of angry travellers posting their complaints on a net forum cos there had no where to send the letter to! Thanks ahead! Bernard
  20. BernardTamHK
    thanks infinity! does it affect the placement of the 3 buttons below the stock radio? (heated seat + trc buttons)?
  21. BernardTamHK
    can u guys post the link to this fascia plate? i want to have a look at it. Also, does it include the 3 holes in the bottom for the heated seat and traction control buttons?
  22. BernardTamHK
    good question ..... i always thought, stage 1 = the turbo/sc kit stage 2 = upgrades to the turbo/sc that does not change the turbo itself. Ie piping, pulleys, bigger coolers, things to improve the performance of the original kit stage 3 = upgraded turbo/sc itself & internal things stage 4 = .. heheh .. dunno, never thought that far. Maybe increased displacement, bore-ing and stuff like that?
  23. BernardTamHK
    the external one behind the glovebox ... Thanks!

    Folks, Who has the 7" popup screen on their tezza? If you do, have you done the dvd conversion on it to play movies? Bernard
  25. BernardTamHK
