Dates that are NOT possible for TTE:
June 6th - 9 th
9th june good for me :DMarcus....
I only picked the 9th as it was the end of the week! so we would go on the 9th, and go to the track on the 10th :winky: any date is good with me :D
OK - to make it easier for everyone, please select your option from the dates available below. We will go with the majority:1) Thurs 13th to Sun 16th APRIL
2) Thurs 11th to Sun 14th MAY - Nurburgring NOT available
3) Thurs 18th to Sun 21st MAY
4) Thurs 1st to Sun 4th JUNE - Nurburgring NOT available
5) Thurs 15th to Sun 18th JUNE - Nurburgring NOT available
And the reason we are going on a Thursday is so that we can go round TTE on Friday (so they will actually be there!). Saturday will be speant at the Nurburgring, and Sunday home ready for work on Monday morning... :D
I have also just cleaned up the thread and added a lot more useful info on the very first post to save people scrolling through lots and lots of posts... :)
Thats better Zee :winky: see i did not know we would be going on a "Thursday" like i said any Date is good, let you lot fight over the date :D

For a race car it looks ok................ :D and hiting speeds off 170+ i think it needs all the help it can get to keep it on the road

Wait for the new Lexus BS to arrive, which is an Audi A3, BMW 1-Series competitor. This will combine state-of-the-art vehicle design with a fair price. Quality will be much better than the German rivals as will Design. Have a look at drawings on my.IS - sweeeet! it arrives 2007.
BS meaning what? Bog Standard?
-
you could always get one of these, looks the same
you need if you think that looks anythink like the NEW! IS ;)
-
If i had the cash i would by an IS350 from the US, right away :winky: but as i dont have the cash im Happy with my IS200-Turbo
-
Will do.
Will get more details from Sami
The drive sounds a wheeze though
yea it would be fun to drive out there,
-
Spock, you are right.
It is the IS350!
408hp 460Nm+-
Dream on.. as they say.
In our case we will have to!!!
for the time being
WOW that looks the dogs nuts and the car looks good as well :D
-
but its obviously a copy coming from a company called Replikits :D
yea yea i know that :P
is how good are there copys
-
not to difficult to modify
even if it was a US spec kit
I know that matt but not alot off guys would or could do it, and a bodyshop would hit you big-time for doing it
I did my one :winky: O why we are on Bodykits............@matt you know that Vented bonnet i was doing well its now done :winky: and it looks the dogs nuts
-
If thats so then its not a "Visage kit" its a copy.........how good one would have to ask if its a copy ;)
-
Thats the same as my Kit, :D But i would say stay away as this kit is made for the US, IS and not the UK one so it will need to be moded front and back Bumpers to make it fit,
-
and i have the matching front lip that goes with it for sale
i was waiting for that Matt :winky:
-
currebtly i onkly know of one IS300 in europe that has been supercharged, the engine had to be rebuilt as the pistons and rings were destroyed, having only been fitted for a few months the engine had to be replaced
Because it was a $hit conversion right from the start!
The FI conversion on my car car has been planned for some time now, with the correct parts and engineering experience to produce not only the most powerful, but the most reliable IS300 conversion attempted. In addition to the weatlth of knowledge from the UK members, we have also been offerered help from one of the most technically switched-on members on the US site.
Believe it when you see it. It is going to be awesome.
most powerfulmost reliable IS300 conversiongoing off Topic ,,,,,,How can you say this mike when you dont know!!.................. ;) Big words mate, Just hope you are right mike :winky: or you end up looking a bit at the end off the day
-
