  1. 19"!!! 18's are nice, but if your gonna be spending the money, it would be worth getting the 19's for the look but if your more worried about ride quality then 18's, but definatley 19's for the SEXINESS and those remind be heaps of the Volk CE28N's i might get these for my car (not the IS250) or im thinking knock off TE37's (ROTA maybe?)
  2. damn, can't make it this time cause im gonna be in korea but anyone wanna do a random meet? between 20th to 23rd Nov?!
  3. yeh mad day! thanks for letting my friend come! hope to see you all soon license back in 13days!
  4. hahaha yeh, still good to check. waiting to get our 60k service done, anything i should know bout the 60000km service? anything specific to ask for?
  5. very interesting 334mm i didn;t know the filter would get blocked so quickly but I don't worry too much as basically every survey says that the IS250 is one of the most reliable cars (well basically any lexus) hahaha and our IS250 hasn't given us any problems with just regular Lexus services, neither has our old RX330 or LS430 my dad's old 330ci was another story tho, HAHAHA
  6. if you guys can, it would be GREAT if the nxt meet was between the 20th - 22nd of Nov
  7. im pretty sure there was a recall for the brake pads on IS250's because some had the squealing and the excessive brake dust i remember when i first got mine, and i was looking it up on clublexus i told them the next service and they changed to the new pads and it stopped squealing but still got tonnes to brake dust i can wash the car, drive to the shops and the front rims are already covered in brake dust (i dont brake hard or ride the brakes)
  8. TPMS is Tyre Pressure Monitoring System the name basically describes what it does i know any of the IS250's in australia came with it
  9. should i take my car to lexus to get serviced? or is it just as good going to a reliable mechanic? cause lexus service is kinda expeno, but i like the feeling of know Lexus is doing it oh and getting to drive the loan car, thats fun aswell. lol
  10. hopefully not in my life time i wanna be able to drive cars with big powerful engines you should watch this video with jeremey clarkson i agree with all thats in the video i may not be old enough to be able to afford expensive cars, but one day i will and i dont want the little problem of not having enough oil left ruin it!
  11. a few members have BCR Coil's which are great, chris' car is real fun to drive esp with the coils and 350 brakes but they are kinda out of my budget, im only a student the reason thinking of going with coilovers over springs, even tho springs are alot cheaper, i want to be able to adjust the height but i might still go with springs, so that i can have some money left over for an exhaust and rear spoiler
  12. hey guys has anyone in australia had experience with Megan EZ coils? from what i read on clublexus they seem pretty good for the price (around 800$) what they mostly said was that it was good for street use, but not track (not like im gonna take a IS250 on a track anyway) should be able to afford these come end of this year/early nxt year and was just wanting any info anyones got heres some info on em Spring Rates (F): 62mm ID; 220mm length; 10 kg/mm Spring Rates ®: 62mm ID; 220mm length; 8 kg/mm Damper Specs (F): 135mm stroke; 240mm length; A2 valving code Damper Specs ®: 135mm stroke; 240mm length; A1 valving code 15 Levels of Adjustable Damper Strength Aluminum Brackets with rubber inserts i dnt what any of that means, so if one of you more experienced guys can kinda dumb that down, that would be great heres a link to them on ebay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MEGAN-COILOVER-DAMPER-KIT-EZ-STREET-SERIES-06-LEXUS-IS250-IS350-GS350-GS430-RWD-/280750954141?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item415e0f969d#ht_996wt_905
  13. i leave my lights on the auto setting all the time the only thing i hate about them are that they dont turn on when u unlock the car (nearly every other car with auto lights does)
  14. omg i just found out, those rims are the same ones my friend has on his GS300 heres a pic, im pretty sure they are the same rims his selling them (20") do you have any pics of your car before it was dropped? i would like to see what they looked like thanks
  15. ohhh i can most likely make it (if any of my friends wanna drive) cause my last HSC exam is on the 4th also, i get my license back 20th Nov, but im going korea 23rd, so if u guys wanna have a little meet up that would be siiiick i'll ask my friends (that still have their license, not many left now, haha) and get back to you asap
  16. wow looks goood man are u looking to get tints? car would look mad with tints
  17. sounds like its the battery does it make a clicking noise, but it wont run over? it happened to me a few months ago outside school just be aware that after u change the battery, stuff like ur seat memory and side mirror memory are wiped so u jst have to set them again i would recommend replacing the battery, i charged mine nd it worked for a few hours and it went flat again hope this helps
  18. no vents CF bonnet with CF grill with the 20's and coils would be H-O-T
  19. um, thats seems REALLY fast i drive pretty hard all the time and i have the stock 18's and even my tyres last 30k kms have u checked the tyres urself? dealer may be trying to just get u to change em but if you really do need to change tyres, get some 18's or 19's!!! 15,000kms seems really short, unless the guy before you did burnouts 24/7
  20. very nice car!! LOVE the wald kit on it i'll get my friends to vote for u aswell!! gonna pass the word around (ifs that ok with u) keep it up!
  21. haha changed plans i got a S65 AMG instead with 2 of my mates the sound it made when it left the drop off area, OMFG, V12 powaar the formal was alright (year 11 one was better) but the clubbing that happened after was MUCH MUCH better also, even if we were 18, we werent allowed to drink during the formal (or before, they breath tested us :( and there was no smoking area! ahaha, nd 1/2 my year smokes, LOL)
  22. wow, *BLEEEP* man some guy did that to my mates type r, but lucky we were on a cruise with 7 other cars he tried driving off when i told him to pull over (i was in the type r), lucky the other 7 cars blocked him off and made him pull over i kinda know how u feel, like after my car got keyed *RAGE* lol
