That looks great Raven. How are you liking the Swift springs? Height, handling & comfortwise? Anymore pics of the front rim to guard gap? Looks to be about a 2 finger gap? Updated suspension?

Sorry for the Q's, just tossimg up between springs or coilovers. Not after a massive drop, about 1 finger gap up front without killing the ride quality or going backwards in handling.

The Americans seem to love comparing exhausts @ meet, so next Sydney meet, anyone's welcome to hear mine.

The youtube pics aren't really much to go off except for loosely gauging/comparing the different tones.

As discussed via sms, will get the toms front/rear. Cheers!

I just bought Danny's ISF, but got it with the stock exhaust/headers. On the lookout for headers, but recently installed a Borla header back exhaust with high flow cats.

It's pretty much perfect. Has a nice deep tone & isn't annoying when cruising around town, but comes alive & sounds nice/muscly under WOT (compliments the Injen intake). No drone or interior rattling to report, so I'm a happy camper. Should get a bit louder when I get headers & delete the primary cats.

I'll take it as per my message.

Gone as yesterday & will be missed.

Sold pending final payment.

I'm down. Should be fine unless one my work trips is rescheduled.

You can have them fit into an ISF I reckon. My 250 runs 19x9.5 +22 rears with 2.5deg negative camber (Tein S Tech), only barely rubs on some highway dips (guards not even rolled).

That won't rub with tein s tech I'm sure.

Well done Danny!

How hard is the GFX lip to fit? have always wanted one but looks like a pain to install

Not hard. Was painted & fitted for $150. Took about 30min to install with 3M tape. Just took a bit of fiddling to ensure it went on perfect. Couldn't do it perfectly solo.

Hi Everyone,

Selling these as I no longer have use for them. They came off my CL9 Honda Accord Euro & fit very very well. Ok amount of dish especially given the reasonable size.

Currently plasti-dipped black with glossifier, however parts have peeled off on the lips due to tyre removal. I'll happily include some spare plasti-dip & glossifier (will not seperate) which is more than enough to fix. Few light rashes which aren't noticeable when dipped.

Axis Milano (Trafficstar look)
19x8.5 +35 (5x114.3 PCD) all round
Originally gloss black with polished lip
No tyres included
Location - Western Sydney (postage @ buyers expense for interstate)

Price - $500

PM or contact me on 0407018031

Pic below of when I ran them on my IS250.

Before plasti-dip:

Cheers,

Interesting & great work. I noticed the same difference between my 08 & my Dads 12/13.

Depends on the wheels of course (weight wise). I can feel the weight difference & have noticed a fuel consumption increase with 19's.

Mixing oils obviously isn't as ideal as matching oil, but it's much better than running low. You'll have no issues.

Got a pic. Was going to de-badge mine, but I think I won't anymore after reading there's a hole underneath the IS2X0 badges.

Yes, I know people plastidip, but I don't like the rubbery finish.

Lunch time pics @ Rhodes:

^ agree! Good to see everyone.

Nice panoramic shot.

Finally fitted GFX rear & fixed the alignment of my m2 exhaust.

Yours Vaku. Recommend you get one to compensate for changes anyway. Road & Race does a great job (in Rydalmere).

Did you get a wheel alignment done afterwards? If so, would be good to post for the other the change in natural camber given the reduction in ride height.

I'll be there, just a bit later. Around the 4pm mark. Hopefully all of you will still be around at that time?

Are you bound to a leasing company (corp policy)? I find Leaseplan competitive. They tendered my IS purchases to the various dealers for the lowest price. Once you have one, you can ask your local dealer to match or you just buy elsewhere. You can haggle upfront too of course, just be prepared with what prices others are offering. If you're being reasonable with your target, sales guys won't turn down comms.

They'd price to net buy, never discount.
