what has he made that panel out of where the air box normaly sits not sure what to do with the big gap left when the airfilter is in its place

sort off but that looks awsome ive seen it done on other jap cars and thought id give it a go LOL

i wasnt too far from it LOL i removed the elec window switch so i wont catch it and its out of the way

my mate has an almera gti that suffers from this all he does is take them apart and give them a clean and lube and they are fine after that so give that a go first

hi all

had abit of a brainwave last night

thought id try something a bit different the engine looks a bit bland in colour so thought all the plastic covers could be painted

but instead of just one colour was thinging of painting the jap rising sun over it.

thoughts on the matter would be nice

thanks

Mate well impressed looks mint i like the route u have taken over the front

job well done as i always say to the wife my work here is done so get the bru on lol

theres a screw in the small door pocket (the one to pull the door closed) then theres one behind the door handle behind a little cover and then theres just a load of plastic pop studs along the bottom that just need popping out.

remove the electric window mech just by pushing it backwards and should just lift out from the front end first and undo the connector

and that should be it I THINK.

hope that helps

there easy to remove and the tool you can buy from any car part shop or eBay only a couple of pound but like said above a flat head screwdriver should pull them out and then theres just four 8mm (i think) bolts and the thing just comes apart.

well i think if u have an SE or Sport u need one not sure for the S

but to say it simply the connections from the amp will only fit the standard head unit so to fit an aftermarket unit you need the amp bypass cable so it will take the normal connections for headunits

theres plenty of threads on here about it so just use the search

its looking good mate how much did it set you back

thats why i love eBay you can always find what you want lol

get it fitted when you get home and get some pics up on here

well impressed mate well done

cool theres a post under the newbies bit that shows u how to upload the pics on here

defo get some pics on here would love to see how it looks

what have you done with the airflow meter bit or have you just left it

havin the same sort of problems with the fuel guage on mine reads 1/4 when its empty but when you turn the egnition off it drops to the normal position at the bottom is this a common fault with the 200 my last one didnt do it.

could it be the dash or the sensor in the fuel tank

do you really need one....

its a suttle little mod that can look good in the engine bay

but to answer your question no not really

when i was lookking for a new lexus i came across a car that had the sub behind the rear arm rest however whoever did it might need to go back and have another go it wasnt to bad but ive seen better installs

done

thanks for the replys guys

ormi it didnt come with a bracket maybe it should have had one but ill make one

my dose and it goes up when i fill it but just wont drop past the 1/4 when its empty

right let me start drove to my town 2 miles from where i live fuel guage said 1/4 full on the way back started to spluttrer and then cut out completly.

tried to start it and it turned over went to 500rpm and then within 2sec cut out again.

so ran to the petrol station on a whim, hope and a prayer got a 5ltr jerry can can ran back and put it in.

low and behold fired up fine

could this be a fault on the dash with the fuel gauge or the actual sensor in the fuel tank

answer or ideas please thanks alot

no peterborough it might of come from leeds its been all over by the service history

here are some pics of the car while the sun was out

theres a thread on how to move the horns lower so you cant seen them through the grill that would be worth a look it under works shop threads i think

but otherwise looks mint

stupid question but could it be the gearbox oil being low that can effect it i think

i would defo upgrade to HIDs and maybe tint the windows not by alot just a light smoke just enough to keep it classy

otherwise looks in a mint condition

hi all

ive got an oil catch tank to fit just want to no if anyone has fitted one and if so did you make a custom bracket as there wasnt one supplied with it.

not sure how to fit it and to where

thanks

ormi looking towards you as i no you have one fitted

had to mate i dont think theres another car that offers as much as the is200 on the market
