  1. You cant go wrong with tien s-techs either. Nice ride and nice ride hight. best of all very good bang for buck buying online.
  2. I have EBC black stuff and they are far more superior the oem and dustless. Initial bite awesome first time evry time cold or hot!!
  3. Congratulations!!! I totally agree with you on seeing it in person and especially the interior. I love it! White with rose interior, nice. I just couldn't pass up on black though ;) I am lucky enough to be picking mine up tomorrow morning. Looking forward to that drive home. how is it frankyX
  4. quite odd topic this. i have never heard of a lexus or toyota engine ever chewing through oil. I give my cars a real hard time both in my 2 is200's and my is250 and the oil level does not budge!!
  5. i get all my HID equipment for all my cars at http://www.theretrofitsource.com/
  6. you would be better off buying a pair as not all HID come out perfectly the same unless made at the same time same place same material etc etc etc You will probably find if you buy one it will look different to the existing one still working.
  7. Very interested in other ppls first drive opinions though. Very extensive review Lance. Great work. But. Would you buy one?
  8. So. Today i visited Sydney City Lexus and the awesome team down there. In 2006 when i was cruising around in my IS200 and saw the 2IS when it came out i said to myself. "I will have one of those" Now in 2013 the 3IS has landed and i look at it and think hmmm... personally i dont like the exterior designing. Admittedly i do think the front grille does look better in person. (except for the pimple after thought HID washer) and i much prefer the sports lux set up. Getting in to the car (IS350 Fsport) the refinement is upto and above expectations as expected with a new Lexus. But the interior "styling" is "out there" and doesnt really flow. its tacked on alot and very "square". a Blocky Mess!! and the screen in the dash is way too small for the space it occupies. The Cluster in the Fsport is awesome!! LFA inspired moving tacho and effects are just awesome. Initial First drive, Lexus quality perfection and refinement to suit. Power, nothing different to the current 350. Dynamic adaptive suspension as in the GS is great. With out experienceing spirited driving around bends i can not comment if the cornering is as marketed "a fun drive". The 8 speed transmission in a 233kw car seems to me pointless and sounds annoying. always changing gears. First Impression, first drive, quick review, MY honest opinion. . . . I will be buying a GS in the future at time of my upgrade.
  9. It will have a similar set up to the new GS Eco - normal - sport - sport + Eco cuts aircon and all sorts of things. Sport changes transmission shifts. Sport + stiffens and supports a performance ride.

  11. Ill tell you a secret but dont tell any one....... You know the polish you use to polish your car. or even post wash quick polish spray. DO YOUR WINDSCREEN. you will be amazed!!
  12. Bendix arent as good as they used to be! For general daily driving you cant go wrong with bendix black stuff. minimal dust and initial bite and follow through breaking just awesome!!. and if you have is350 brakes it stops on a pin!!
  13. ebc black stuff for street driving are awesome. Have great initial bite and are quite
  14. nice in black. hides all the stand out bits. in different colours it will look too busy and ugly
  15. its normal. it is also your aircon trying to climate control your cabin as well as water temp.
  16. Noisey and hard. Are they on the new IS? DisLexSic. Have you been out of australia recently. Is your looks better in the flesh a local comment.

    Toyo Tires

    50 buks and ill drop them off anywhere in sydney.
  18. Hey Lex1s, just a quick one, you said you put a CAI and your fuel consumption went up(at the beginning somewhere), what did you do to get it back down to 7.9?[ /quote] Hey Phil. Basically after i got over the sound of putting my foot down haha
  19. I had prestige rims averaged 8.9 Got 19 inch rims. Average 7.9 Most ppls tires are wrong. Rim size is irrelevant. If you have the wrong tires puts your speedo out puts you kms out puts your average out. True story.
  20. I have the fly audio and have also compared it to the ML and honestly the quality between them is minimal if any. The GPS has no issues at all im running tomtom and ironfist is running garmin, no dramas at all between either.
