  1. Hi I've come across like a dilema. My car is a 2013 Lexus IS300H 2.5 Petrol Hybrid RWD premier 2 trimm. So I have currently Vented Rotors on the rear I've never changed them and I'm not sure the size, by looking of the sites of parts in Ireland it says 290mm Rotors but they mostly come in Solid and I think it won't fit on my calipers. Other sites say 310mm Rear vented rotors will fit on 300H when I put in the reg plate. Is there a possibility how to measure the Rotors that is on the car? I wanted to get Mtech rotors as the price is way better and honestly looks cool as well. Front I'm getting a 334mm 62.5mm Centering. it's rotor for GS Advics system since I'm planing on putting on 4 piston calipers on the front as they are directly bolt on. So my question is how to know if I have 290mm Vented rare or 310mm Vented?
  2. That's an amazing car! wolf in sheep's coat haha love the number plate 😄 what's next on the list for mods?
  3. That is one hot ride!
  4. Just picked up my new/used gs450h front Advics calipers and discs excited to work on the car again improve it. Now to repaint them and maybe get new kit to refurbish them but the guy said they in working order. So we will see how it goes.
  5. So still waiting on side skirts and front lip from ebay and rear diffuser fins. So far only thing done to the car is wrapped the grille myself to gloss black but not happy about it might redo it later when I have mood haha thinking of ordering spoiler lowering springs or coils. Saving up for brakes or new exhaust haven't decided yet which to get. Also installed mood lighting into the foot wells app control and reacts to music pretty cool also have diamond car mats on the way.
  6. Very nice and clean, what's up next the body or Keeping it more or less stock? I'm saving for big brake kit like from the GS 450h Advics 4 piston calipers they bolt on fronts on IS only need different rotors I believe.
  7. So the first set of LEDs were cheaper ones and well you get what you pay for they did work they were not too much brighter then the stock ones just abit and they only hyperflash on the turn signals not hazards not lock unlock so I decided to so research and I could make them work with additional money to spend on resistor wire which made ot obnoxiously expensive and they didn't fit like sit in the plug port nicely. So after some time on Amazon found that Tuicyn brand has small LEDs really bright with built in resistor and they have nice plug piece so ordered 4 of those and installation of those was a breeze and they fascinated me with brightness and sharpness of the signal now I need to tint the lights in the rear for sure haha so if anyone looking for a amber turn signals LEDs Tuicyn is the brand that I suggest and I'm pretty picky. Also another update today ordered rear diffuser shark fins and side skirts extension and front lip from ebay it will arrive at end of October probably maybe November but the price was good compared to AliExpress and wish and Amazon. The first cheaper LEDs I got. These are the Tuicyn ones Here are some shots of the car at a car meet latest ones needs a wash badly. Also Changed the cabin filter to a Bosh hypoallergenic anti pollen carbon one it was only one I could find so I just went with it.
  8. So went to the breakers today and found out no 300h are for breaking. Was looking for a trunk dome light and the knee bolster for my buddy he has like plain 300h has plastic pieces instead of leather lined knee bolster on the console anyone knows the part number of it? Figured out that the Avensis 09 has the the non t10 socket but it's same but then luck struck and found totaled auris 2016-2018? And it has the t10 plug and got it for like 3£ or so
  9. This is what I want to get in the end like only race yellow and black lettering LEXUS just need to find who can cnc me a ls460h rear caliper braket adapter to IS300h
  10. Yeah ISF's GSF's are wayy to expensive for this car but Advics Calipers look nice have abit more stopping power less service like Compared to stocks. Also I have done my research when I bought the wheels and they are not agresive offset they are ET40 8.5 so It should be fine if anything I can get a 10mm spacer. And they look candy. I want to make mine in Racing yellow like that. It will be more then enought for a 300H
  11. Next up I think I might get GS350 Calipers Advics ones and LS460H rear or I will try to safe up for ISF calipers But I don't see the point in Brembos on the 300h as it's not really performance tunable 😄 So probably going to get Advics 4 piston ones. As Advics Directly bolts on the IS brake mount just need bigger rottors + Mike V8 had a realy nice video how to restore them 😄 and they don't cost a arm and a leg.
  12. Installed the rear spats NIA style I think? They called universal looks nice and also did my buddies car with the 200t spats from Maxton.
  13. Got the wheels fitted today really excited! They look awesome the Toyo Tires Proxes Sports feel way more stable and smooth to drive then the Goodyears Asymetrics. And yes I know the wheel gap is masive i'm working on it haha Thinking of getting Coils or springs what you guys run?
  14. Tires and front wheels came today! Waiting for back ones now, to mount them up and post pictures!
  15. So it's done boys I've ordered a Set of JR28's in Hyper black 18' 8.5J fronts and 9.5J backs ET40 and got the tires today with wheel nuts. Waiting for the wheels so I can post pictures 😄 I did contact the Japan Racing Wheels asked them what's the best offset they recommend for the IS300h they told me 35 would not fit 9.5J in the back they suggested to get ET40 all around which I did I was considering ET35 but since I'm making them custom PCD and Custom offset cause they don't have 5X114.3 in ET40 9.5 I had to go with what JR's suggested just to be safe ordered them from JDMdistro.
