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 https://www.lexuspartsnow.com/oem-lexus-rc-f-control-arm-bracket.html https://www.lexuspartsnow.com/oem-lexus-gs-f-control-arm-bracket.html https://www.thepartsspecialist.com/oem-parts/lexus-control-arm-bracket-4807624010 https://www.thepartsspecialist.com/oem-parts/lexus-control-arm-bracket-4807524010 Part No 9 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 Link showing soft 2nd Gen ISx bushes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpG32GK2mUY Link showing install of Pol but ones listed above the same procedure. (thanks to Figs.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWa3EDMvQXE SuperPro kit https://superpro.com.au/tradeview/index.php?view=parts_vehicleapplication&cid=999500451

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 http://fixmygps.info/forum/showthread.php?tid=5498

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. http://www.aceexhaust.com.au/ Bazzle

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.

You dont say what series 1, 2, 3? IS350 (My choice) https://www.carsguide.com.au/car-reviews/lexus-is350-f-sport-2010-review-10630 IS250 http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1874307 https://www.google.com/search?q=lexus+is+250+model+differences&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjOyJyjpMTXAhVDjJQKHUPND7oQ1QIIggEoBg https://www.drive.com.au/new-car-reviews/lexus-is250-20060223-14sbp

It just sits over it. The velcro tabs wouldn't do anything. The mat is also soft not heat formed. I also doubt it would affect the operation of the bag as the force they go off with would force it thru the windscreen... In the pics I haven't pressed it down onto the tabs yet. Looks better in the flesh.

Didn't go ahead. Sorry. Couldn't justify the cost for a card. I did find a post on an US Lexus forum re an Ozzie who got one and it worked. Something re ensuring the frequency was correct. Had a look for the post but its alluding me atm. Baz

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/172386256304 Received and fitted this 2 days ago. Description says IS250 but fitted my IS350 12/2011 ok. Cant see why it wouldn't fit the ISF as well. Was hard getting the little Velcro pads to stick to hot dash but an isopropal wipe helped. Also you push the front of the mat down to bottom of glass and it is held there as well between dash and glass. Purchased as I was getting a real lot of radiated heat from the top of dash. On Wednesday when it was hot (sun-shining also directly on dash) there was a noticeable reduction in radiated heat. Well worth the $25

Just be careful to ensure water flow is very minimal to prevent hydraulic lock. Other than that ...yes... it does work well. We used to do it a lot (in the past) for that purpose.

Thanks for trying

The links in one of my earlier threads are for V22, I doubt too much has changed since then? This is the Mitsubishi V23 one. magnet:?xt=urn:btih:DFA70DBB4F1E709A13DB4D30AE5D76DFBA1650F6 Magnet for the MMCS V23 pw-DU4PnKzHEDGjDgLz It does have the loading.kwi on the disk though. If that can be used on the Toyota DVD it 'may' work. Haven't got time to 'play' atm.....

Downloaded V23 for Mitsubishi yesterday :) Not Toyota yet unless it can be used?

Oops, by too far out I meant physically They read the pressures OK.

I couldn't find the same as yours so I purchased this set. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TPMS-Car-Tyre-Tire-Pressure-Monitoring-System-4-Sensors-Cigarette-Lighter/263074448878?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Delivered in a week :) Worked good but the sensors are too far out on my IS350 F sport so I moved them to my wifes car. Are your's inside the rim on the ISF? Got a link for yours?
