  1. Hope everything gets sorted for you, mate. Just ordered a BlackJax 4 on eBay (one left), £71 from the States. Just fitted a Cobra alarm & immobiliser in my mate's Skyline, so this shouldn't be too difficult.
  2. Don't know about idle level, but if you had an auto box you'd feel the difference as the box has to "learn" your driving style again.
  3. If it doesn't start afterwards (engine turns over but doesn't fire) put the key in and leave it in the normal running position for 6 minutes, then remove. Car should now be startable. (Worked on my GS, anyhow.)
  4. I second that. ANPR = good guys looking for road tax dodgers and nicked cars Talivan = tossers looking for easy money
  5. Just be glad you're not living in Great Dunmow, Essex. Oak Service Station charge 99.3ppl and deserve to go out of business for it!
  6. Checked the EPC, they fit nothing else.
  7. They could've gone older... Aluminium H6 engine Disc brakes all round Headlamp that turns with the steering to illuminate bends Electronically controlled transmission 4-wheel independent suspension Collapsible steering column Safety glass Not bad for a car from 1948!
  8. Cool, Aberdare is 2nd cheapest in Wales, tied with Neath, at 87.8ppl. Only Llanrwst in Gwynedd is cheaper. Guess who's going to be in Aberdare tomorrow! :P (I ain't filling up round here, robbing sods are charging 92.9ppl!)
  9. Would that be this black car, by any chance?
  10. 4 megabyte broadband, eh? That's a 32Mbit connection, what a load of b*****ks.
  11. You should set up a camcorder on a tripod, and video it. Sped up, would be interesting to see the decomposition of an Altezza from car to shell. Would make a nice avatar, at least!
  12. Did the LE have Snow Control and a 7-speed gearbox? :D
  13. Depth of sensor hole (from top of screw holes): GS300 77mm, K&N 81mm Internal diameter of pipe at sensor location: GS300 67mm, K&N 72mm Would I be able to narrow the pipe at the sensor location using a 2.5mm thick layer of 1" wide PVC electrical tape, or is the air turbulence from this likely to cause issues? Or should I just whack the whole thing back on eBay?
  14. My Mk.1 GS had that. Was the lower ball joint.
  15. Hmmm... will have to check. Incidentally, the drop-in filter for the GS300 is the same as that for the IS300, the 33-2170. AFM is the same on both (22204-22010 fits LOADS of different cars, from the Scion xA to the LS430).
  16. I'm guessing the number's twenty. A 2 can look like an R with the (in)appropriate font.
  17. Fitted a K&N Typhoon to the Lexus this week. Sounds nice when you blip the throttle, but pulling away for the first time after turning the key feels REALLY sluggish, car takes a little while to perk up. I've reset the ECU, made no difference. Any suggestions before I ditch the Typhoon and go back to the standard intake? p.s. the Typhoon is for the IS300, I figured it would work in the GS as the engines are the same, only the mounting points and shape of the standard intake differ.
