All depends on ur budget really. I ended up getting BC Racing Coilovers for £600 and thats the cheaper end for that sort of thing. Would highly recommend them but it all boils down to cost in the end.
-
Did u ask the difference between the 2? From a quick glance it just looks like the vehicle years are only slightly different for the IS200. Im sure u could always buy the cheaper one and return it if it doesnt work.
-
Item 400354279011 on eBay any good to ya?
-
Not sure on the specific drops, had Wheels In Motion fit them and lower it. Not crazy low but looks better and also handles better too. Adjustable dampening is also a plus point if it ever went round a track lol. Havent taken any pics yet as its usually very dirty and this weather is crap. Maybe i cud try some tomorrow.
-
If it says it does then no doubt it probably will. I had mine lowered a few weeks ago using BC Racing Coilovers from the same website your looking at and have had no problems.
-
My total mileage to WIM then to the meet then home was 330+ miles :-s lol. good to see u guys tho.
-
Not WIM tho theyre only in Chesham now. There was a post a little while ago by Tony saying they and Atomic had parted company. Whether there services would be the same i do not know.
-
Not long to go, end of the week ;-)
-
Shud take a garage that does custom exhausts about 3 hrs and cost me £460 (stainless steel catback system). Prob doesnt do anything in the way of performance but only got it done for looks and sound. The exhaust pipin sits abit lower where the 2 pipes connect up and maybe this might be an issue if u wanted to lower the car alot. Im getting it fitted with coilovers this weekend so i will find out but wont have it stupidly low.
-
Havent got a splitter yet but here is my custom exhaust to give u some ideas

noby76 all the info is here
-
See you there ;-)
-
Pm'd u my number, but dont really know of any IS drivers so hopefully there are still a few interested on here.
-
According to there website Chesham is still the place to go
-
And with the exchange rate that would be just under 2k ;-) wonder how much shipping would be tho.
-
I second ur proposal of making gozza organiser ;-) Im sure like me 1 or 2 others are fine with Salisbury (even tho it quite a distance for me) and are available pretty much whenever. Its just getting answers out of people on here that cud be difficult as not everyone will constantly check there internet, hence getting peoples mobile numbers for better communication.
-
Well looks like me and lewe_d_is200 are fine with wherever. Just need more feedback from others, if not just private message those that have shown interest on this thread and get there mobile numbers or something. Depends on the minimum number of guys ud like to turn up too.
-
Seems like i'll be coming down ur way so think its best someone more familiar with the area sorts it out ;-) as far as i know i cud prob do whenever.
-
Also a suggested date needs to be put forward. Again im not bothered when as long as its a weekend. Im useless at making decisions so maybe Gozza cud make a suggestion? ;-) lol.
-
I'll prob have to travel a reasonable distance wherever u guys decide so im not overly fussed. And KentIS300 i know what u mean. Ironically where i live i only used to see 2 IS's and since i bought one i see one every 5 mins now lol.
-
Should i assume that seeing as u suggested it, that u are familiar with Salisbury then Gozza? Weekends would be my preference just so u know.
-
Well if something does get decided it wud need to be 100% confirmed cos i wouldnt fancy driving all the way down and nobody turning up. Maybe pm people and ask for there mobile numbers?
-
270 miles there and back for me then :-s lol. Depends on what others fancy tho.
-
Whos goin to organise one? One central to eveyone above wud be much appreciated.
Best Hid Kit And Fitting Hid Kits Also Engine Tune
in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club

As above was going to suggest hids4u. Havent got any on my car but i think generally people do the dipped beam then just get some whiter halogen bulbs for main beam etc. Either that or use a cheap hid kit for the mains seeing as the hids4u ones are more expensive. Maybe u shud ask a garage about hid's on ur car, even hids4u said the rules are unclear when i asked them about it.
As for angel eyes ur only really gunna find the attachable ones. People on here that have angel eyes have the attachable ones, at some point i think i will prob do this.
Engine wise if u want more power its either a supercharger (usually TTE which are second hand and rare) at about 2k or turbo charging at about 5k plus. Unless u wanted to go down the engine swap route?
