The last mod was replacing oem shocks+springs with Tokico Blue HP Shocks + Tein H Tech springs.

They are too sporty for me so if anyone is considering changing from oem pm me!

Not really, gloss black is the most I'd go for the surround

Yep its the one from ebay.

OEM is gunmetal grey like mine

Not sure, its an ebay f sport style grille which comes in black matte

I spray painted gunmetal grey & clear coated so it shines and looks like a true f sport grille

Here's my 2007 is250

If youre interested let me know and I'll show ya

Nice but soft champ.

I run 235/40 front KU31.

255/40 Falken on rear.

Dealers/Tyre shops love to tell you a size of tyre is too big when it's not.

You should be running 255/40 at least on rears

I'm attending a wedding in melbourne mid december and am looking for a luxury sedan car hire Wednesday - Sunday.

Can anyone recommend a prestige car hire place with something like an E Class / A6 / bmw x5

Not keen on the typical hertz,thrifty range.

Thanks

Looking to buy an IS250/IS350 side skirt, driver side

Black, Colour Code 212 (obsidian black)

Let me know if anyone has

Louder, not better. The fujitsubo is $1400 shipped, I'd be doing you a favour :)

Cya

Wanna swap? meet you half way! haha

@samsung001 it sounds nothing like stock. The audio in that video doesn't capture the sound difference at all.

Stock exhaust = Silent.

Fujitsubo = Deep + Noticeable.

Most people who want to maintain the luxury element go for it, as did I, now I want more of a roar so I'm looking to swap.

If you're local hit me up for a demo. Im in gold coast

Is250/is350 Fujitsubo exhaust for sale, $1100 Ono

Made in japan, about 5000km usage only

Considered the best luxury sounding exhaust with no drone

Im selling to swap to a loud exhaust

Anyone looked at getting one of these?

Does the IS250 have one from factory?

So you guys recommend the Pilot Sport 2 over Kumho KU31?

KU31 is about $219 for 235/40 so it seems they are similarly priced

Nice info ilv, didn't know there was a difference

yea lol when I got my fujitsubo exhaust installed in the is250,

the mechanic offered to cut the stock one in half to fit in the car lol. I said no.

lol bro I think we both know enough to know "its a lexus not a bmw" means nothing when we're talking about hacking a resonator/cat out of a steel pipe and weld jobbing in straight pipe replacement.

as per your comment, it isn't worth it, and it does not sound good at all afterwards.

whether its lexus bmw toyota mitsubishi watever.

best to just buy a midpipe which is like $400 shipped for the invidias right?

Resonator "delete" is not as nice as it sounds.

My last BMW had this.

It sounded TERRIBLE.

people said it sounded worse than a diesel tractor.

I have a sound clip. happy to upload for anyone considering a resonator delete

Oh and i prefer to buy from the likes of kmart tire etc just because less hassle of buying online etc and taking them to get installed..

Im on the gold coast.

Kmart tire quoted $269 for kumho ku31 $245/40 18" and $319 for 255/35

How much do the michelin ps2 , yokohama and pirelli go for?

I want to spend max $280 per tire really, 255/40 or 255/35 18"

Want new 255/40 - 18" rear tires for my IS250, max $260/tire

Fronts are Kumho KU31 235/40 18"

Which of the options below do you guys recommend?

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A cheap buy?

Bridgestone Turanza ER33

Falken FK 452

Falken FK453

Falken PT722

Kumho Ecsta KU39 cheap buy?

Michelin Pilot Sport PS2

Pirelli Cinturato P7

Pirelli PZero

Pirelli PZero Rosso Asimmetrico

Yokohama Advan Neova AD08

Yokohama Advan Sport V103

Yokohama Advan V105

that sounds better

question is, how is the cabin drone.

I have fujitsubo exhaust.

it's a bolt on replacement for stock, so naturally it would fit fine with invidia since that is also a bolt on replacement.

I will say though that the fujitsubo feels not as loud as i wanted it.

I was on the quiet vibe after reading coolmeows post so I got it.

Might sell it..

I was sort of lookin for the growl of a C63 AMG..

Should I look at the F-Sport exhaust or something else??
