  1. Mmmmm, makes me want to remove my back boxes!
  2. I'mthinking more about increasing the rear camber but the article can't confirm exactly what parts were changed to do this. I think swapping the bushes is worthwhile but I'd only do that when mine are knackered 😀
  3. Didn't understand all of it but interesting read. Would like to know exactly how to change my car to later spec, especially at the rear 🤔
  4. There are rumors on Facebook that the GSF and LCF will be getting a 4.0 turbo V8 with nearly 600bhp and 500 lb/ft torque. How do you feel about it? I think it's overkill in terms of what you can use on the road but I see the appeal. Wouldn't say no if they put it in the IS though 😀
  5. Have to admit it was a struggle keeping up with the GT3 and gtr's!
  6. @Rebecca and @Flytvr you have to keep an eye on the south wales section of the pistonheads website. There probably won't be another for a few months but I'll post on here when something is arranged. @Farqui I don't think the laguna on the trailer was with us 😀
  7. Attended a pistonheads meet today. Met in cardiff and drove up to Builth wells using some of the roads from the famous 'welsh blat'. Some lovely cars, especially enjoyed chasing the GT3 😍 Also bumped in to alex and his lovely pearly white F, what are the chances? PS the engine bay shot is of a 600bhp VXR8, the owner was complementing me on the noise of my car after following me for 20 miles 😎
  8. Nothing sorry 🙁. The car spent a lot of time in the reading area so maybe it's from someone round there?
  9. Here's a bad picture of my mystery exhaust. It appears to have an X pipe and a H pipe! Someone spent some money on it!
  10. No issues with my discs yet, I got ebc pads though, which I've been impressed with.
  11. This is true but today the missus wanted to get home early and didn't want to stop! Obviously she always gets what she wants. I use my car everyday so fuel stops are a tedious necessity for me but I agree with the advice, I usually fill up once I'm down to a quarter tank 😴
  12. How far can an isf travel when the trip computer reads zero? I did about 10 miles today in heavy traffic with the gauge on empty and watched the fuel gauge drop well past the minimum level! 😮 Due to my cars, um, drinking problem I don't take any chances when it comes to refuelling but interested to know for sure how far it will go in an emergency 😀
  13. Got my brembo discs from ECP and they were genuine 🖒 Always interested in better alternatives though, anyone tried other brands?
  14. I couldn't resist taking the bait of the trolls! Also posted on the isf thread in the jap car section. Never had my driving described as constructive before 😁
  15. I'll be interested to see if you get any rubbing. Lovely set of wheels 🖒
  16. I thought it looked similar to the LC when I first saw it. Obviously they are both big coupes but the details are similar too. I think it shows how far lexus design has come, they used to copy German styling, now they are the ones ahead of the curve!
  17. Burnt orange for me on a grey car 🖒
  18. Pretty sure I'm free then, if I am then I'll be there 🖒
  19. Definitely the best colour, there are a couple of these in my neck of the woods and they look like supercars compared to everything else!
  20. I was obsessed with Chesterfield aprillias when max biaggi was in his prime! Bet that is a lot of fun.
  21. Just been reading the thread. Lovely car and you've clearly put a lot of work into it 🖒
  22. Hope you were gentle on those poor non-V8 drivers 😁
  23. The centre caps are a different size to the standard wheels and there isn't much of market for aftermarket lexus stickers! I'll keep my eyes open though, agree they would look good 🖒
