Hey All Have this problem - when i go to auto close my sunroof - it stops right before close - then goes back to being fully open have to manually close the roof by going to the first open setting then to close. annoying... i did check for anything blocking or interupting it... also this happened the same night i was driving on the M4 and my VSC check warning came on... reset the ecu, it went away, then back on the M4 the next day and bang straight back on :P

I had my resonator deleted as well, its worth it -just make sure they do a proper job.. Don't get midas to do it, they will charge an arm - very bad stories i heard about them. Just find a local exhaust place. Anyway with no resonator you get a little reonance and a touch more raspy sound. But letting you know now its not super noticable, in an underground carpark rev the hell out of it then its obvious!!

Thanks Atlantis, to be honest 19's was my aim, but these wheels only came in 18 or 20.. so i got 18's I got 20's last week and they are perfect - no rubbing (got the right offset - good places will send off the wheels to machine back to ensure perfect fit) and its not too bumpy at all... depends on your sussy setup and tyre pressure 32-40psi is alot of difference. Ive been in other cars with 20's (not IS250's) are some were crazy bumpy.

Everyone has there own opinion... I think it looks fn good! but that does not mean id buy them... and most tyre shops got the budget rims and they also got their pricey ones. Personally I got a set of 20's last week after upgrading my 18's (no not OEM's no questions pls) and i went for the machine face stylish look - actually first one in AUS with these wheels - will post pics one day...

This is the setup I'm interested in. I've seen this setup on other cars but not on a Lexus. Do you get more or less initial "bite" when you depress the brake pedal? honestly i didnt feel any major difference when depressing on day to day driving (maybe a touch more bite if any), but when u mash it at higher speeds it does stop better

I got Pedders on mine 6 months ago. Called a couple up, dealed two down to $600 supplied/fitted/aligned Ride height is sweet, the back is a touch lower than the front. Overall Pedders supposed to drop 38mm Ride quality hasnt changed much, still smooth - depends also on wheel size and pressure Sorry no snaps of the ride height!

I had removed my resonator, and while its not a massive change, there is a change. Gives a more raspy sound - euro style. Would recommend for sure. With my Intake I also got a little extra growl - removed the little rubber thing inside the intake (extra hole) and dropped in a Blitz filter. The Blitz alone makes a sound difference. So if a cheap and cheerful mod is what you want, go for the above! :)

Hey All I was checking my air filter (stock) and giving it a little clean up. After all that I now get the 'Check VSC' message. I had a look at the cables etc if I unclipped or possibly damaged anything but they looked fine. Any Ideas? ***Fixed! Although I replugged the O2 sensor a couple times, this time i sprayed some WD-40 - Miracle worker it is!!*** On another note, anyone know what is that rubber outlet in the stock airbox? It goes nowhere.

Hey mate I meant offset of the wheels, some people get the wrong offset, then when it come to lowering they cant go down cause it will hit the guards. Anyway I got my wheels on Sat +45 offset and got good space. So if pedders is a 1.5" drop (38mm) then it should be fine - but Im just unsure whether to go for Pedders 38mm drop or Kings 30mm drop?? Pedders are progressive on the rear, whereas Kings are not.
