I'm lovin' it too!!

Jimmy, where did you get your mintex pads from?

I phoned the contact number on the website and they put me in touch with my local supplier.

Changing brake pads/disks

I changed mine myself recently (same brake pads and disks on GS) and I used Mintex pads front and rear and Lexus disks (rears). This was the cheapest for me and the Mintex pads are equally as good.

The Mintex rear disks were more expensive than buying from Lexus, maybe try Lucas disks?

Joining GOLD will get yop a discount if you order parts from Lexus :winky:

Now I like it even more!!

Check that none of these boxes are ticked, unless you are using a proxy server.

Under, Tools, Internet Options, Connections, LAN settings.

Not sure exactly what the issue is but two things:

1) The "chug-home" is limp home mode. It basically enables you to travel home even though the ECU has detected a fault.

2) Take it down to a dealer, and they can plug in their Tester, and as the Engine Management light came on, they will pin-point the fault.

Yeah guessed it was in "safe mode"

Took it to dealers and it needs a new throttle body apparentely, under warranty so thats OK.

Cheers fella :winky:

I like it, its quite similar to the current shape.

When I was selling my IS, I got a similar E-Mail from someone in Nigeria. Didn't want to ask about the car and offered me asking price immediately. I left it well alone ;)

Love it or hate it?

Not true.

I like it, no more....

Anyone heard of "The Illuminati"? I have a (paranoid) mate who bores me to death every Friday night about their secret and world domineering ways.

I have seen their web site - it seems far fethced but is thought provoking  :o

Interesting Link!

Some of it is a bit far fetched granted, but some of it is fact!

Was a program on SKY tonight about The Bilderburger Group, Trilateral commision and the council on foreign relations, and how they have members who own most of the worlds most powerful financial and media organisations, not to mention almost all the presidents of the United States. Makes you think...

PS. Don't go to the link of Stairway to Heaven played backwards if you're home alone, scared the bejeesus out of me

Was driving home tonight and the VSC light, VSC OFF Light and the Engine light came on. I had minimal drive after this and it was chugging.

Turned off and back on again and it seems fine again.

Any ideas?

They comp'ed me one as it was the first they had developed and it was awful!!

Truly awful! If this is the same one, don't go near it. have some photos at home and will post later.

Sound was a bit louder but horrible and tinney (if thats a word). And no increase in performance. It only stayed on the car for 15 mins!

Had mine done at lexus Edgware Road recently, £77 all in.

Kwik Fit will rebalance your wheels for £5 per corner. :winky:

Noble?

folk with superchargered Altezza usually change them every 15k KMS.

15000km per cambelt change!! Thats a bit excessive isn't it?

A chip on its own would not yeald much gain at all, 6-7 bhp max

Yeah I'll do em at the same price if you know they fit the GS300

Count me in then :winky:

The part number for the GS is "Part 81730-20220 LAMP ASSY, SIDE TURN"

Any chance of including these in the GB Chris?

These will not fit the GS.

Tried to fit IS ones on my GS and they don't fit. The fixing on the IS are further apart so unless you want to make the hole bigger in your wing they are no good.

Damn! The clear ones from the RX300 are a direct replacement though! Maybe we can see if we can get the same deal on these Colin? I will get the part no's later (I have them at home)

Check out the % performance and economy increases, they are not nearly as high as the % £ increase.

Might take a couple of tank fulls while your ECU adjusts to the new fuel.
