Have you got them yet??

Have you sourced them locally?

Posted

you can get most bits and pieces for the is from these guys.

http://www.l-tunedparts.com

the shipping is pretty expensive though so you might want to save and buy all your gear in one go to save on shipping,

or maybe we can look at a group buy if we can get a few ppl together to buy a few things?

Thanks cevu! cool link!

Yeh, the group buy thing sounds cool! We will have to wait until we get more activity on this thread!!

Sewell lexus selling them around $1300 USD included shipping. my best suggestions is safe a bit more and get the Coil overs (Tein Comfort Sport only $2100-2400AUD) if you look around :) i would suggest start with SRS AUTO in sydney :)

BTW i see QQQ IS250 almost everyday and his car is HOT :)

Hey hey...sorrryyyyyyyy...been busy ....(with the car) :)

Just 1 more thing, if you want eibach pro kit to be install in your car..you need a Tein Silencer Rubber (since eibach unable to supply one), otherwise you'll hear a liitle 'clapping noise' from the rear springs... and now..heres the photos..fitted with 19" HRRacing Stagerred!

Hey Dragon..are you spying on me??? :P thanks for the compliment though :)

Must say, you guys have inspired me to push my project along!! So enjoy the "props" a little while longer QQQ, untill mine gets out there that is!!! B)

Just kidding brother, again, absolutely awesome ride!!!

Hey QQQ,

Do you want to repost ya car in the after market wheel section!! I want to get that topic pinned as a reference. I spent hours prior to here on CL looking at their After market wheels thread. Its a must have tool in helping to chose the right wheel!! Plus, ya car should be up there for all to appreciate!! B)

Hey QQQ,

Considering that it appears that I am un-intentionally following in your foot steps, where did you get the Eibach's from?? Did you get them fitted locally? Did they suggest to get the silencer rubbers??

After reading about the guys with the F-Sport springs, Im worried that the drop aint quite enough. Does anyone here have the F-Sports installed yet?? Do you guys agree??

Hi, I get it from Ebay Motor, it cost me $600 landed...it might cost you more now as the currency thingy :(

I install them @ Lexus Chatswood, but you can install them @ local, I know one @ arncliffe is good doing this, the shop call Top One, The drop is good for my car... its 1.4 and 1.00 dropped (as you can see on the photos)

The F-Sport spring is Eibach..similar like mine...there is a clapping noise at the rear and you definitely need a Rubber Silencer...

If you want to wait...I might sale mine..as I consideering to buy the Tein Comfort Sport coil over :) I'll let you know in a weeks if I want to sale it or not.

Cheap. I get it from Tein US, http://www.tein.com/products/silencer_rubber.html BUT they dont deliver to Australia...so I ask my friend in US to buy it online and send it to me. I had 5 sets for less than $80 landed.

Would this clapping noise be the shock knock noise that are notorious with Hondas?

If so i can tell you it is damnn annoying.
