Washing The Car
Jase replied to Altezza Girl's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 / Toyota Altezza Club
find some pages with lots of printing in them, cuz the ink contains some oil or grease or whatever in it, and it makes the windows shiny don't worry about any glass cleaners if you're using newspaper, just use water, as the result is just as good..! give it a go! Jason -

What Colour Should The Window Decals Be?
Jase replied to frylai's topic in General Lexus Discussions Forums
hey guys, me again i just rang up the vinyl place and they can provide metallic colors, that means the gold and silver are not just plain gloss, but will look metallic. i havn't looked at the actual material yet. i will when i take the actual designs in for them to make The cost will depend on the design sizes, the sizes of the fonts, and the colors available (they have to order in certain colors). Metallic colors are a little more expensive than plain gloss. Come on guys, more votes..! :-- D Jason -
I would go with interior..! Cuz I spend more time inside of my car driving than outside looking at it, need to make the interior look and feel good..! Buckets, trims, stereos... The outside looks good enough to me, and the engine has more than enough power which i can use daily..! B) Jason :-- )

i guess so.. i think the vinyl place can provide a number of colours. i have seen the gold ones that they have, i have some white ones made, seen their blue, orange, red... they probably have more i don't know, should we do them all in one color? or a couple of set of each of the altezza colors? i will try to ring up tomorrow and see what colors they have, and get back to you guys..!

oh oops, didn't read the GS300 bit :P haha

Hey guys..! I have fixed up the design, and here they are keith, I fixed up the NZ to make it easier to read :-- ) I reckon, for the side windows, we could use the deisgn with the Lexus logo, since there isn't much room anyway. and the rear window, use the web address. yea, like Matt said, have something reasonable sized. I have contacts to the vinyl place. Once we have finalised the design, sizes and the amounts we want, I can send the design over and get them done :--) Guys, more input please..! So I can design something that all of us like! Jason

Fuel, Oil And Distance
Jase replied to 4ROLLN's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 / Toyota Altezza Club
RS200 1) Mobil 1 (My choice :) ) 2) around $55 at Shell, 96 Octane 3) 50% highway, 50% city, 470kms -
hey guys here it is. Side window 100mmX20mm. Rear window 220mmx60mm. If you have seen Matt's ones, the side window ones are slightly bigger than his, and the rear window one is about the same size as his. I have contacted my friend about this whole design a logo thing, and he's sweet and is waiting for us to hand him a design to give to the vinyl place. Anyway, this is a start i guess, and plz comment on the design or post some up here and we can then decide which to use! Jason

But if not, black housing front lights man! haha :P Probably this comeing saturday there will be room in the garage :--p Jason

Springs Springs And Springs!
Jase replied to frylai's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 / Toyota Altezza Club
You're lucky franco, with the Apexi N1 Coilovers come in STANDARD haha I got some TANABE CVSquare installed a week or 2 ago. According to factory specs, F -43mm, 6.5kg/mm R -33mm, 5.5kg/mm is what the springs give you. I'm using the springs with standard Altezza shocks (they are the front are Tokico shocks, don't know about the rear). Performance has definitly increased, as the lower the car, the lower the center of gravity, and less the body roll (still a little of cuz..!). The rear slides a little more in corners but i think its because I drive a little faster than before with the springs in now haha Comfort? Its great, way less harsh than Coilovers and feels like standard. But you can tell that there is something done to the suspension. In the long run, I would get aftermarket shocks too, as lowering springs cause standard shocks more stress. Well, i guess if you are just after the look, get some springs. If you are not lookin too deeply into the performance side of things, get lowering springs with aftermarket shocks. And for best performace, get some Coilovers! Hope this helps the members who are considering of lowering their ride! Jason -
Brake Clicking Noise
Jase replied to ChronicSK's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 / Toyota Altezza Club
hey ChronicSK i have that noise and i think its normal too :---D Its got something to do with "cold contracts and hot expands" i guess. As your brakes are cold after a night in your garage, so your brake housing kinda grip your pads more in the mornings. And I think you hear that 'clunk' noise because the brake pistons are pushing a bit of metal over another. Thats my guess ahah :P -
Hi Shannon and welcome! sorry can't answer the first two questions as i have no experience..! and with the springs, haha, go talk to Matt..! I got some Tanabe springs for my car a couple of weeks ago, not bad, go to my Garage to see some pics welcome once again! :-- D
