:( can sum1 giv me like 100 grand?

get a prestige and chuck on a set of rims. the lexus optional rims are so expensive. they aren't slow but also not what you would consider fast. fun to drive though

spotted 3 is250s in a space of 5minutes. 1st one was black and had big chrome rims and a nsw plate. 2nd one was a black is250x a couple cars behind it both were at the new Westfield in Doncaster 3rd one has also black and had what looked like 18 inch rims. Cnr of Blackburn and Doncaster rd. Someone has to be a member here!? come on!

nah nah in the dry. i gotta get some videos next time i go on a cruise. the old man has a 1968 firebird convertible. which he completely stripped. He is swapping for my daily which is a '06 VZ ex cop. Swapping it with no box, motor, panels, interior, roof etc. He was planning on doing a big build but changed his mind and is going to go for sumthing new. Im trying to convince him into the IS-F but he still doesn't think its as raw as the other v8's mentioned. I think im going to have to show him a few youtube vids and organise a test drive to change his mind!!

My one is from taiwan, came factory painted. It is often in the sun for hours at a time and its been on since about Feb, still looks the same as the day i bought it. Ill take a pic soon :D

oooo baby hahaha. i likey. If only it was affordable, for me anyway! My old man wanted to get the is250 traded in for the ISF but its just too expensive. He wants the 09 Camaro if it gets released here, if not a 6ltr HSV. :D edit. oh and ps. For those of you wanting that drifting action in the IS250. Its quite possible! Straight after the 1st service with traction and stability off the is250 wheelspins like crazy. I can also tell you that both wheels spin on the spot hahaha, and thats with 275 tyres!

I was told by a wheel repairer if your rims are alloy with chrome coating its bad luck. However if ur rims are painted or just alloy it can be fixed easily. Sucks to be me!

I dont have any sensors, just the reverse camera. I remember being in my mates commodore when it was pouring down and he couldn't see crap, but the sensors were fine. You should just give Lexus a quick call im sure they will give you some sort of assistance.

Certain family members have guttered 3 of my rims :| As it is on the edge of the lip its not noticable unless u look closely! I dont think im gonna bother fixing them for a while though. QQQ 185km/h? Hardly feels like your doing it huh? Do you have any idea what the speed limiter is at? I did the first burnout in the IS and i feel a little bad, but it was definitely fun. Hopefully no one flames me for doing one. Some people are very against it in nice cars.

heres the psd if anyone wants to muck around with it. Im not allowed to upload a .psd so I changed it to .txt When u download it just change it back. lexus_owners_club_.txt

OMG! Im in love. That has to be bagged. No way you can drive it around at that height! Im after a drop of 2 - 3 inches. No more than that because im not the only driver of the car and i don't wanna see missing bumpers. The other family members have already guttered the rims that I bought!

Ive been so so busy! and i went over my 35gb d/l limit and i was stuck on 56k so the forum wudnt load up! ill make an update soon. ive run out of ideas though. everything ive tried looks crap

reverse camera maybe? i saw black is250 with roof racks on johnston st in the city last night. 3rd one with roof racks ive seen since i made this thread! they are getting so common im gonna stop posting them lol

Back on topic, cough post pics. jking haha :) Red IS250X with black and white custom mix plates and ROOF RACKS in Doncaster. Whats the world coming to? I dont know.

barrrred! haha oh sh!t. i think im the only one driving a modified is250 on l's

So $50 + the usual price? 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"). yep its the usual price + $50 im not sure exactly how it all works but im finding out through a mate as he got custom springs for his subaru.

Theres plenty of room to lower! I know a few people with 19's and 20's on smaller cars and you cant see the top of the tire. They still get away without rubbing all over the place. I also have a few mates that got superlow king springs for a few cars. Late model commodores, 328i beema and xr6t to name a few.. and they weren't impressed by the difference. As ultra low's or super super's aren't available ready to go for the is250's custom springs are the only option when going beyond 1.5" With that said, you can still get customs with only a 1" drop but a softer spring if you wanted.

2007 Model with about 18,000km on it. It seemed to improve after the 15,000km service but it is still noticeable now and then. I will probably take the car to them when time permits and see what they can do :)

OOOPS DOUBLE POST!

Yeah, as far as i know from previous experience it is. I had this idea that the catalyst inside it is burning up some how. Lexus said its normal, but why doesn't everyone get this problem then?

try these guys: j-spec.com.au they specialise in jap imports.

Am I the only one experiencing this? The exhaust smells like eggs / sulfur when its being driven, occasionally i get a whiff of it when the windows open. If the car is revved harder it smells worse! I notice it all the time when i park and jump out of the car. Lexus said to change to a different brand fuel but i haven't really noticed a difference!

hahah thanks!! ive been a bit busy lately, but towards the end of this week i should have a few other designs to consider!
