Natroth Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 My kit is WALD Executive. It is a japanese kit distibuted from the USA. http://www.jonari.com/brand.php?bid=1&makeid=3 Yeah, that's me on the Hume Hwy every morning.....Bugger, now I'm spotted I might have to come to the carwash/BBQ.... Suggestion 3- We could always do a "run" down the coast to a coffee shop !! e.g. Blackbird Cafe at Berrima ?? To add to the discussion, here r some pics of my IS250 Sport Luxury. So far I have added* WALD ground effects kit all round * Modifed grille as I like the top to match the bottom. * White LED's throughout including puddles * DVD/GPS/phone hack * Rear LED lights are ordered Next is some white wheels when I find some good ones. I haven't added any engine mods yet but I am keen to get a short ram intake. Off to a good start, I hope u all agree ?? the front of the kit looks good, not feeling the rear though. sorry to say this but that grill is an absolute eyesore to me. don't think it suits the luxury sports look of the car. bit too bling bling for my taste. lights would look awesome on your white car, perfect match. again, don't take offence to my post, it's just my opinion. not trying to bag you out. obviously its something you take pride in so at the end of the day if you're happy with it thats all that counts! oh yeah, have seen you around. was that you this morning on hume why heading towards liverpool? where did you get your body kit from and how much did it set you back?

(and drastically at that!) i'm in for a group buy too, depending on what we're buying as i already have springs and intake. i'm definitely in on the exhaust though! took so long for a group buy i ended up getting the mazzuri headers by myself!

Ill post some pics up soon of my is with dished 19's Hey Niick, Im definately down with the group buy for springs!! What did you have in mind?? I thought your car was already lowered!! (and drastically at that!) Unfortunately not! I was very close to buying some from the states but changed my mind last minute and lost interest. I want to get them again though! Only thing is i want a decent drop and the lowest i can go with springs is 1.5" from factory. So i might just cut the factory springs... JOKING! My options would be to get a set compressed, be happy with a 1.5" drop or fork out for some coilovers. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProjectIS Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 hi guys,pics as promised Very nice. I like the deep dish with that style. What size rubber is it??? Have you thought about a drop?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sho Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 235 * 35 fronts and 275 * 30 rears cant really drop the car as have enough problems as it is with keeping the bodykit in one piece on stock springs. having said that i have seen a black one with the same kit lowered and it looks awesome.

If you want the 1.X" drop, sounds like the Eibachs are the ones to go with? I think both QQQ and Ilv's went with them and achieved that type of drop! Im looking for about the same as well!

Niick Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 What i mean is... the springs with the lowest drop rate would be the ones mentioned by ilv1004s above. The rest are around 1.5" max. I just found out that King Springs will make a custom set of springs for $50 (i.e. choose your own spring rate and drop) This is what im probably going to go for as i am after a 2" or more drop from standard :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natroth Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 NEXT MOD complete. Here are the rear tail lights fitted. I know its going to be love/hate but I think it looks good on the pearl white, not for every colour though. Now I have a small problem. The LED's are not being recognised by the safety systems in the car and all the warning lights are flashing on the dash and all the safety systems are turned off. This is because the car cannot detect the LED's, I think........ anyone got any ideas before I take them off again??? To add to the discussion, here r some pics of my IS250 Sport Luxury. So far I have added* WALD ground effects kit all round * Modifed grille as I like the top to match the bottom. * White LED's throughout including puddles * DVD/GPS/phone hack * Rear LED lights are ordered Next is some white wheels when I find some good ones.

How do u know what spring rate you want, knowing Kings they set their normal rate to be low (for hard/firm ride). i'm keen on a 1" front and 1.5" rear on firm setting (for 18").
