Anyone know if an Is250 in australia has been supercharged yet? I'm interested in getting the Arma supercharger http://www.armaspeed.com/eng/goods.php?act=cat&no=29 My 250 cost under 30k so a supercharger is cheaper than is350 My friend says blowoff valves, particularly 120db of the arma are illegal in QLD Anyway around this legally or mechnically?

I'm going to be replacing tyres soon also Have done some research Everyone says you can use 235/45 on the fronts no problems. One guy even said the dealers said its fine to do it also. So don't listen to people who say Lexus spent millions of dollars researching it and you should always use 225 So when I get mine I'll be going 235 front & 245 or 255 rears I was thinking about Kumho KU39 Or Kumho KU31

I bought the new F-Sport style grille off ebay for my 2007 Lexus IS250 sport Doesn't come with badge though so I need to grab one off ebay Just wondering if this one is the right dimensions? W:129 x H:88 mm. http://cgi.ebay.com/LEXUS-RX350-LS460-GS300-IS250-BADGE-EMBLEM-LOGO-129x88-/350393220114?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5195103c12#ht_1048wt_907

just thought i'd add i purchased the Bendix General CT as replacement pads from the local mechanic. $150 for front pair, $150 for rear pair. No idea how they compare to OEM as my previous weren't OEM i dont think, that said they provide smooth soft braking and work reasonably well far as I can tell and give off minimal brakedust if any at all.. fyi: my last car was a 2009 BMW 135i which comes stock with Brembo Sports brakes. Those brakes were SUPER instant feedback + equally SUPER brake dust I dont mind these ones

Hi Guys Just an update, I purchased #1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190526158205&viewitem= $106 USD + $46 USD Shipping (about the same in Aus Dollar) Think I might get it powder coated gloss black after having read this thread here so it doesnt blend in too much http://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-second-generation/567005-is-f-style-grille-for-06-08-from-option-racing-ebay-part-2-installed.html I'm also going to find a way to gloss black the grill surround & chrome window trim. Will take it all to a powder coater and see if they can do it all! Stay tuned

Found an F Style Grille here looks great, will probably go for it. But need to find a place to paint the chrome surround on the grille to a glossy black so it looks nice / contrasts the bumper a bit http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/06-08-LEXUS-IS250-350-ISF-STYLE-GRILLE-GRILL-GSE20-JDM-/270738867311?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f094b446f
