That JDM one for sale is mine, will be sorely missed The 112mph limit has never impacted me anyway !

Appreciate the feedback, its been on my mind for some time. I do find that the standard exhaust with the cats removed sounds reasonable though so I keep going over and over in my head on getting a cat back or not. The comments above are interesting too as my neighbours tell me it sounds great on cold start-up whereas I might just be used to it now. Its a tough one, spend some cash and try it, but maybe its a waste and I should get a new rad and pump, hahah

Yeah, the air vents changed and are a slightly different size at the back as well as the curve (if its a newer Nav from a newer car)

Make the most of it 🙂 I never seen any of the flooding at all, must have been more central. Awful that its happened mate but good to see you are getting on with it and making the most of it

Someone else will maybe confirm but I'm sure they are different and not easily swapped

Yup to the above, pretty sure they are Magnesium Alloy

Fitted the kit with new bolts today and its better, but still there. However its clearly the rear now. Ordered the rear set this time, much cheaper from Bell Lexus in the US through Ebay. I would happily have ordered here if they weren't over twice the price for the fitting kit. Fingers crossed for when they arrive, at least its better and clearer

Nice one, that 13 plate in Swindon looked great, I too had my eye on it for a while like many others. Glad you enjoy it. You are right about being happy with something, enjoy life, if you can afford it, go for it. For me the sign of a great car is one that you miss driving, you want to just go for a drive. I haven't had that for a while until I got the ISF.

Unfortunately still there, seems to be drivers side front. I was thinking of getting a fitting kit like this: http://www.lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/parts/lexus-is-f/lexus-is-f-2007-2014/brakes-transmission/lexus-is-f-front-pad-fitting-kit/ As well as the slider pin and see if that helps. Expensive fitting kit though! It seems to come with pins and guide though by the looks of it:

Thanks guys, I drove it back from the garage there and i didnt notice anything. They said it was still doing it so will give it a good test tomorrow. Appreciate the comments, if its still doing it I think i'll try new pins first So annoying 🙂

Hey guys Looking for any ideas. A month or so ago a started getting what sounded like pad rattle on the ISF, Ive had it in two different places and nothing can be found. Pins seems fine, pads are all fine as are all the fittings. Replaced the front pads while we were there and still no difference. I sounds like a light metal rattle only over bumps on the road, and it goes away with light pressure on the brake pedal. Wondered if anyone else had a similar issue? I was thinking of trying new pins?

As some above, use Nengun for some stuff, RHD Japan are decent too. Nengun have a service to use the Yahoo auctions in Japan, its a bit of a faff with costs back and forth but works fine.

Thats what I thought too. I was going to get a set from the US till I seen these, so far so good 🙂 Made a mistake on the rear anti roll bar upgrade, didnt get new drop links at the same time

Morning guys Anyone tried Hardrace parts before? I was looking to install lower front control arm bushes and found these available easily in the UK. Actually got them fitted yesterday along with a new rear anti roll bar and quite pleased with the results. I couldnt find any info on the forum but thought id take a punt. So far so good and not badly priced either. Anyone else have experience before?

I seen there is a cheap RCF on the approved used site, seems cheaper than normal to me anyway: https://usedcars.lexus.co.uk/en/used-lexus/Lexus/Rc-F-Coupe/500-50-2dr-Auto-n5ca7gw Its just a one-off from what I can tell as the ISF prices still seem strong to me. I keep eyeing up that 13 plate silver one for £22k I keep get tempted to get something newer than my JDM 08 but then sense kicks in and for the price increase I wont be gaining much. Everyone loves a treat though 🙂
