Im sure I read a post on the US Forum where they fitted after market lights. Might be worth a search.

Dont know re cut off from left to right hand drive though.

This and other variables have always made me get a local tune.

Tweaks to suit said engine can be made to the map in real time.

Ive always been a little sceptical of plug in 'tuning'.

Might be others interested in your fix.

Care to post up?

Lexus service said its normal. Prob closer to 600 than I stated.

TB been done. By upper engine clean I assume you mean inlet valves?  I dont think mine (350) has that issue.

Not really too worried but like to see what I can achieve.

When A/C on rises another 100 rpm and smooths out.

I found heaps of posts on USA forums with same queries, no real fix., but no one mentioned resetting idle A/C off so that what I was going to try next.

I want to change my idle speed when AirCon Not on. ie up by 100rpm.
I have the cable but I cant find a section where I can make an adjustment.
Reason .. Idle is about 500 Aircon off. Give slightly rough idle. Lift to 600, smooth.
Changed and checked plugs etc.so just a tweak needed.

Search found similar ex: quote" If my A/C is off my idle is noticeably rougher than when it’s on." Seems to be a common issue but no one raised idle AC off.

If you dont get payment I will pick up :)

Sometimes a small dab of moly grease on shims and pins helps.

There are a few (cheaper ...  ahem) performance cars using that colour , or one very similar, Golf R32, Subaru, Focus .......

Good looking Lexus too. $100k in the USA. Wonder what the Aussie markup will be 

48075-24010 / 48076-24010

Today I fitted a pair of these on the inner front lower control arms.

Pretty straightforward to fit. Jack up a bit keeping wheels 'just'on the ground, place safety stands, Loosen 2 bolts, nut and secondary bracket.  Lever arm to reduce tension and slide off. A a wipe of grease on shaft on install to stop corrosion. Tighten up TIGHT ;)

Can be even easier to fit on a hoist at your next service. Should take about 15 mins.

They are meant for the RC-F and GS-F

They have a harder Duro and a bit more rubber fill than 2nd Gen IS_X brackets so locate the arm better when under dynamic loads. 

There are Poly ones available from Super Pro locally and FIGS etc in the USA but I wanted the quietness and no maintenance option.

1st driving opinions with just over 200k's today, both freeway and secondary bitumen roads.

Car drives straighter with less constant wheel corrections needed on the freeway.

Small movement of the steering wheel now transfers to movement at the road wheel. (less freeplay effect)

Coming up to intersections under hard braking the tram-lining from wear indentations was negligible :) 

Overall the car tracks like it should of. I also have the inertia damper in the steering wheel that changed the feel but could not control the movement of poor resilient bushes.

There does not appear to be any more noise and I think only a small perception of more road roughness feel at the steering wheel.

Worth the $140 they cost landed.....sure thing

Also keep in mind the min legal height AND the ratio of original suspension travel plus bumpstop clearances.

Dont know where you are but details will be on your local Vic roads, SA traffic, NSW etc etc web pages. A google search will give all the info.

Be aware that lowering a car does not always help with handling and road-ability and sometimes what feels quicker is not.. but it may look nice :)

You 1st link is for a scammer.

2nd link looks similar to one where a member on here got dudded, (v22 renamed in the files)

Be patient, V23 will be available one day,

If you have the SD card you're stuck, pity as new Nov 2017 maps etc available on one of my gps sites

Ive lightly scuffed my front left rim on a kerb 

Can anyone recommend a colour that works with the IS350 F sport rims?

Thanks  BAz

ACE exhaust in Heatherdale rd Ringwood make up complete systems.

They do a rear muffler and tip replacement.

Will get them to do that to mine in the new year.

Found I had to cut a small bit out where the headlight sensor is under the windscreen, other than that OK :)

Grunge can also get into intake runners , ports and on rear of valve for a variety of other reasons as well.

A good long drive will reduce a lot of this.There may come a time though when a can of Seafoam (Subaru Inlet cleaner) will do wonders.

Is an LS350 the same as an IS350?

If so if you have the DVD map model it can be done from the post further down the page. If its the SD card version you are stuck with updates from Toyota only atm.

Note: DVD map version has 2 little holes each side of the lower clock panel that you insert a rod into to remove panel and show DVD map slot.

(The removal tools should be in the tool kit)

350 (2011) has both direct AND indirect. Issue very much reduced.
