@Farqui It had an exhaust sound off with @Rusty Crobar and lost, badly 😂 🐀

@DAW No I'm no jealous I'm not you know I'm really not........ 😂 Hope you had a good time and your cheque book didn't start gravitating towards the LC 😊 🐀

🤥

@Rusty Crobar Shame really it would be great to know 🤗 🐀

I don't know really this just so childish you wouldn't see me or @Mark G or @Warrington guy or ................ cough cough any of us responsible.........isF owners behaving in such a way............. 😂 As evidenced here with me travelling at precisely 29.9 mph 🤣 🐀

@Rusty Crobar They clearly have given it some thought, after all matey your cannons need all the support they can get 😂 As an aside we have all probably asked you who supplied/fitted it any idea any markings stampings ? Big Rat

@talaipwros In many ways I agree coming from long term Porsche ownership myself more than anything that I wanted was reliability which for me had to come from engineering integrity, I never felt that with any of my Porsche. Big Rat

@Nick W858 Only joking Nick I have some great memorable moments with mine over the years, that feeling for me to working my way up through the range of Boxsters - Cayman - 911's Gt3 and Turbo will stay for forever, personally I never had any of the well published problems of the non GT/Turbo engines lunching themselves- thankfully 😅 You enjoy it they are unique after all if flawed in someways..........bit like us all really 😂 Big Rat

@Nick W858 Nick careful now you may get tempted to all those things that the German cars have to offer I've prepared a list for you ... Honesty 🤥 integrity🤥 build quality🤥 reliability🤥 great dealers🤥 Oh and before I forget having had many Porsche in the past 'Paranoia' Big Rat

@mikeyv Thanx for that matey will do all of that as well love a bit research 👍 🐀

@NemesisUK He was of the opinion that they were just not up to the Lexus original quality by a fair way, for me I know the Lexus prices are high for supply and fit of these items but I've not heard anybody say a bad thing performance wise about them apart from cost and dust. Now obviously they are an important feature of any car goes without say, but mine is original brakes all round including pads after eight years and 42K which I think speaks volumes it's just a shame Mr Lexus wants sooooo much for them. Big Rat

Been to look at them with my mate Paddy he's an automotive engineer specialised in braking and suspension systems over many years. He's probably forgotten more than I'll ever know about these matters, and even his cursory look at them the pad compounds are very different from the standard ones this of course may be a good or a bad thing ! He felt the compound was less metallic and possibly softer, the originals are legendary for the dust but they work very well and last. The bells don't look the best quality in surface finishing nor did the rears of the discs. Suffice to say I've passed on these I'm not desperate for them at the moment so I shall keep looking and may take the route of others on here with alternatives. Big Rat

@Flytvr No ain't that the absolute truth 🙄 🐀

@Flytvr Ah yes a man who knows me well and that refuelling comes in many many guises 😁 🐀

@Rusty Crobar Such a bad boy can't push an isF for two reasons.... Its Auto It weighs more than @Flytvr list of I'm not happy with Mr Lexus dealers 😂 🐀

@Pecker Will come back to you tomorrow- thanx. 🐀

@NemesisUK How right you are matey I've reserved them today while I'm up in Chester with friends, the eurocarparts northern supply depot is near our Hotel, I'm going over in the morning with a knowledgeable friend to see. Its amazing these companies still do this stuff, still I suppose business is business my boy 😏 Its why I don't do mail order for this kind of stuff as well. Big Rat

Guys with the new discount voucher just got from them front and rear discs/pads all Brembo with the vat came to £332.00. Lexus want that just to supply and fit front pads. Big Rat

@Rusty Crobar Well the reason for that is you've never been assessed by someone who knows what they are talking about..... now you have 😏 🐀

@emjay82 I can see the religious connotations of this and so does @Mark G here he on his way to church 😂 Big Rat

@Rusty Crobar That's a bit personal innit, your not at the Conrah Hotel now fella 😉 🐀

@Rusty Crobar Saw your input on the Pistonheads GSF thread informative and constructive just like your driving Matey 👍 🐀

@lockeyboy Matey I have a major problem I've had to barricade my home, nailed pieces of crooked wood over the windows...... The Audi - BMW - VW forum boys are outside they are baying for our blood it seems we've discovered the holy grail of reliability I'm shouting it from my roof top it's called...... BUY A BLOODY LEXUS 😂 🐀

@robbyg Pleased for you on that matey, along with the many other positive attributes that an isF has, we are pleased to announce self healing to the list 😂 🐀

@Pecker Mark by the way that blue is great very 'F' 🐀
