  1. I used to have a VW Corrado VR6, not quite the speed spec you quoted but you can pick one up now for less than £5k then tune it with your spare change, I know for a fact you can s/c them. there 2+2, not too flashy and quite rare so resale would be easy! trouble is front wheel drive, Do work very well in the snow. plus you will have the active spoiler on the back, thats fun! Great and reliable car!
  2. Following the Heel-Toe topic on here I found this little Vid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0e-J-Mg1dA LOC link http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...883&hl=heel
  3. Is the car lowered? could be bad camber adjustment, Tracking maybe out, do you drive your car hard through corners although i think thats the outside part of the tread. tyre pressures good? you can get cheap tyres online, i got my winters from www.mytyres.co.uk or .com alot of places do part warn's, however i wouldn't trust part warns.
  4. Alot of time and effort spent on this, maybe a little too much! not my cuppa!
  5. Hello My partner had this with her car and it was the master cylinder for the brakes. A way i have been told if its a wheel bearing is to hold each side of the wheel and shake it, if it has movement then it may be a wheel bearing. Are all your wheel nuts done up? Im sure others will come along and advise. Aaron
  6. I fill up with BP ultimate every week, one week we was away and all i could find was a Texaco so i used there higher octane and car felt like it was more responsive...it was probably just in my head!
  7. Did you get the plates from a shop, internet or cut them down yourself...had any issues with MOT/police?
  8. Looks great! Dark wheels I would be jealous of! only thing i might try is wheel spacers on the rear to push them closer out to the arch, however they may then scrub. Is that a narrower number plate on the front? Aaron
  9. They do look the part, good job! What was the time scale and guide to price?
  10. Is that 10% off for non-gold members, how about us Goldies?
  11. lol is that a hot new mod from the USA...i want one :D
  12. i thought they looked good in c/f :D if you had more c/f on the car then they would be cool, I was going to put c/f browes on my car the continue a c/f vinyl tear along the side of the car, then i realised people would take the p**s out of me so that 5min thought died. Its good that you will have c/f on your car, nobody will know but you, still cool tho' :D Also is that corner spats i spy on your avatar?
  13. follow linky http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DRAGON-PERFORMANCE-M...1QQcmdZViewItem
  14. Just found this on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lexus-is200-se-sport...1QQcmdZViewItem wish this was around when i was changing my head-unit, might have saved me a bit of time. Aaron
  15. Hello. These strut bars are mainly for a Tezza, on an IS they will probably resonate on your airbox, unless you modify the bar. I have front and rear strut braces, mainly for looks, however when there off you can feel a slight difference, mainly in steering but it isn't much. As far as i'm aware ARB's are the way to go if you want to feel an improvement. This is just my oppinion, I'm sure others will be about soon. Aaron
  16. :o im getting worried now! could somebody PM me please cos i thought my Lex was pretty damn secure after reading the last reply im not sure. (my IS is an older) :o
  17. Welcome to LOC! If you go Gold you get discounts on parts and other things, Lexus centres are still selling styling for the IS200...Ebay can also be a good place Good luck and hope you enjoy your Lex. Aaron
  18. I have grooved discs fitted to my Lex, I had no vibration when driving...All i got was a grinding noise which went after about 50 miles (handbrake pads bedding in i was told) Could it be that when the wheels were put back onto the carthe rears may have been put on the front so out of balance? are all your wheel nuts tight?
  19. Today saturday at around 12:00 - 13:00 I see a Grey IS200/Altezza, it had a TRD Sports grill and a Kazama looking exhaust, heading towards the Waitrose/M11. Was it you? I was passenger in my girlies polo heading into Cambridge
