LXISF, any news?

Just go BC coilovers. I've heard comfort is just as good as the stock setup, and it's adjustable.

It's also a 95% chance that you'll regret the spring/shock setup and just get Coilovers in the end anyway so just save the trouble and money now.

If money isn't a problem, then go for KW V3's - They are awesome, awesome coilovers.

Merry Christmas and have a safe new years!

Did you notice this after hopping into your car from Go-karting?

Jokes aside, my power steering felt really heavy as my power steering ECU failed and needed to get replaced. It's a costly replacement, but luckily I paid for warranty.

In regards to the very light steering, did you hit a pot hole or something recently? It's possible that your alignment is out - specifically, your toe. For something more serious, you may have bent something.

The front bar being different is dependant on the year.

Since you're in Australia, the IS350 will be of the latest facelift.

Below I've referenced with photos the different years, and bumper/lip style.

2006 (2 piece bumper - front bumper/lip)

2008 (1 Piece front bumper)

2010+ (1 Piece bumper, different foglights & grille shape)

Here's an updated pic :)

I'm located in S.E suburbs.

Quick question, for the guys still on stock suspension or are looking for an upgrade, anyone interested in KW coilovers? :D

I'm keen.

Confirm some numbers and get this bad boy of a meeting happening.

These are back on the market.

You're not alone here because I have the same issue. It seems like mine starts to run dry at around the 5k mark as well..

using 10/30 Castrol Magnatec Professional.

I would recommend Akebono pads for our cars. I'm currently using these for both front/rears and they are awesome. They are ceramic, affordable, quiet, almost hardly any brake dust, and they bite.

Below is information about what these coilovers are all about:

State-of-the-art technology from motor sports for more performance on the road. The separate and independently adjustable rebound- and compression damping allows for an individual suspension setup for different uses and preferences. The unique patented system with its two-stage valves allows a rebound damping adjustment (comfort) and a compression adjustment (driving dynamics) in the low-speed range while the high-speed range which controls the driving safety, is fixed.

• Damping technology with individually adjustable rebound- and compression technology
• inox-line* stainless steel technology
• Individually height adjustable
• Adjustment parameters approved by the German Technical Control Board (TUV)
• High-quality components for long durability
• Infinitely variable rebound damping adjustment
• 14-way adjustable compression damping
• Unique, individually working damping force adjustment
• Comprehensive documentation for easy use

Drop Range:

Front: 1.2" - 2.3"
Rear: 0.9" - 2.1"

This is what it looks like on my car

Located in Melbourne.

Asking $1650.

Here's a big tip for you - Source your own spark plugs because the Lexus service charges a ridiculous $70/plug

^Looks good mate. Last pic looks like a shot behind Tyre Power NM

Happened to me the other week. Don't worry, the camera's are probably just calibrating.

I'm on KW V3, and it is extremely comfortable.. even at it's lowest height setting. But it does cost a lot more than the others out there.

Finally took the time out on a nice sunny day to black out the foggies to complete the look.

I'm experiencing the same issue.

Would love to know what others have done to remedy this.

Pro Tip: Source your own spark plugs or get stung with their ridiculous pricing of $70/per plug.
