Hey Ron, sorry I m away from the country from the 10th, sometime early next year mate, havent seen you in a while was trying to get you to come to our 3rd meet 2 weekends ago...oh well next time... Matt :D

Hi Team, a TRD Front Clip on would cost roughly uder the $300 mark unpaited and not include shipping, I will try to get a shipping qoute on economy so you guys can grab it ealry new year... Matt :D

Hi All, After the nice trip down to New Plymouth on the weekend, I will be heading up North to Whangarei and Bay Of Islands, anyone keen to meet up and ceuise along together let me know... Matt :D

Still seeing what is going to happen with my Contis... Matt :D

Hey Lextcy, ever found out anything about them? Matt :)

Make sure to Oil them and clean them out every 10,000 k's...just use one of those K&N Filter Rechager or Foam Filter Cleaner pack available at Repco and Wooltons...for around $30, Oil is very important for foam filter and they how most of the dust get filtered...also for Metal Filters like K&N, but with paper filter you will be fine...if any of you guys are keen on a HKS Filter Let me know I m off back in Hong Kong and if you are in no rush on them, save yourself $20 on Shipping, but you will have to pick them up in late Januaray... Matt :)

are they the one you adjust with the metal ring? Lsportline Suspension Set like these bilsteins? or is it the whole coil-over set? a pic would be nice...:D Matt B)

No it's not, Its a merc, nothing but a South African Car...I think some Mineral Turbs will be fine on the dash steering wheel etc...it will ruin some colour of it, but oh hey its better than this...or get insaurance to cover it and get you a new dash and seats...... :D , we have to use insaurance to insure ourselves sometime.....lol Matt :)

lol.....I think I have to watch I and II first, never got the chance to see it for some reason.... Matt L B) PS - Get me those prices when you can on those wheels....

Hi you lot, As far as I know only Snowwolf and Lextcy got coilovers, anyone else? One got Tein Flex and the other one got HA... Matt :D

not sure, I went back into Lexus and they did a wheel alignment...they said everything is fine, look alright at the moment, only donce around 2000k's on them...any idea how I can solve this or is it just that Mag and Turbo did a *BLEEP* job? Matt :)

Its an optional extra in japan...under the sports elegance edition..... Matt :D

nice...already comes with a Altezza Sport Grille and Supra Style Wing, you don't have to blow anymore money into these, however where are the front and rear lip spoiler? why does it only have side skirts? oh well not the most important thing...that means we won't see him in a while, he will be out driving....lolz....enjoy dude... Matt :D

Yeah I got CSC not CSC II, if I got II i wont even compare since its in a different class...I would compare with Pzeros... Anyway yeah they are around 20% more expensive than the Dunlop S9000...yeah like I said less noise and better steering...can feel the difference...they are made in Germany... Matt :D

Full highway I get around 530km, full Auckland I get around 350km...lolz... Matt :D

Yeah they paid me...I wish...yeah I prefer the car more keith, I can take full control it unlike some human...lolz... Matt :D

Back from the 960km journey, My radar saved 3 3 times from 2 stalers and 1 speed camera, I was down by Hawera when I was trying to over pass this MPV in a passing lane doing 145km, whoa that ticket would of cost...the intake really helped out on that sudden power (vvt-i) and the lsportline springs was good until around 20-double the speed limit on corners...its abit soft but its good stuff, but can do better...around the same bodyroll as stock but lower so more gravity...etc...money well spent on these 3 items...yeah I have been going out to country side driving this year...that why the car already 38,400 km on the clock...been to Hamilton a few times...(Saw Snowwolf today and Saturday morning) lol...yeah will be off to Whagarei Next week....:D Matt B)

My baby lexo gets cleaned once every 3 days if the weather is fine, or whenever there is a sunny period when it has been rainaing for days, I will say anywhere between 50 - 75 times a year... How I clean the car? -Rinse with fresh water (Bottled Water)* -Shampoo with Merguires gold class car wash -Rinse Off -Clean hard jerms with Merguires Bug and Tar Remover -Clean Windows with Merguires Window Cleaner -Clean Wheels with Merguires All wheel Cleaner (Hot rims type) -Silicon wheels with Merguires Long lasting tire gel. -Polish Exhuast Pipe with Autosol -Waxxed every 2 - 4 months depends on weather patterns, before waxing I use the Merguires scratch X to remove fine marks... -Interior Vacumn all Mats and Carpet, Seats, Door Trims, Dash, Console, Steering Wheel, Glove box, seat belts, etc...also engine bay everytime I clean the car. -Boot area, first aid kit compartment and spare wheels area once every 2-3 months... dirty carpets gets cleaned with Merguires Carpet Cleaner, leather get wipped with Merguires leather wipe, interior windows also get cleaned... after every step it will get dryed and the car will look sparking new! How do you and often do you clean your car??? enjoy your weekend guys... Matt B) and yes Gav I know you pay someone to do it.....lolz... *Evian, only happened when I never finished drinking that 1.5 litre bottle which has been in the garage for weeks after opening...lolz

Hi All, My baby IS300 havent leaved Auckland / Waikato Region before and it is off to New Plymouth today, It will be a nice drive on State Highway 3, last time I have been there was 4 years ago. The road is beautiful!!! This will be a good opportunity to test out the Lsportline Springs, PLP Intake and Bel 990 Radar to its max! I will be back on Sunday night, will be leaving New Zealand on the 10th of December. So that If I don't reply to your e-mails and PM don't get too pissed off i Havent forgotten about you guys but just that I will be having fun driving :D, will keep you guys updated if there are any Lexo down there (doubt it) in a 47,000 populated city. Enjoy your weekends guys... Matt B) Aaron, Will keep you updated about those buyers about your Grille!

28G's...are you GreNelson? before the trouble we had with the forums? Matt :)

Thankd JZ for the offering...I could help out abit about the New Lexus SC430 or the new 4.3 Soarers... I got some decent knowlege about them but nothing compare to the IS and Altezzas... Matt :)

wait a while... Matt B) lol :P I would have been waiting longer than most ppl maybe it had it replaced before I got the car, dont know Yeah, I though it will never happene to my new one...but it jammed like most of the American users...everyone on is300.net has their jammed.....you just have to wait till the day that comes..lol...who ever invented this *BLEEP* is a retard... Matt

Hi All, Had them for over 2 weeks now...but just though I might write a report about them...Yes they are smoother than the Factory Dunlop Sports S9000's and they give more steering on sharp turns...instead of doing 40kmh around a 90 degree corner, I can now do around 45kmh until a hear a wheel spin...so definitly smoother, better turning...that is comparing to a set of new Dunlop S9000's not the one I was running on right before the change...so I'll say its a fair comparision...lolz... Matt B)
