its a road over here in houston called westheimer... its one of the main streets over here.. its an 8 lane road - 4 each way for about a 40 mile stretch

its not rhd... its just the weird angle and the mirror makes itr look that way

i guess no one likes the picture :(

i was droppin my friend off at home and he took this random pic in the mirror of an 18wheeler.. it turned out better than i thought it would and heres the orig pic if you want the supersize http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/data/3209/16942hoebag.jpg

the trd muffler is an axleback, not a catback the greddy sp and apexi are anywhere from $400-500 for the full catback.. greddy & apexi > trd

instead of that noname brand.. get a greddy sp or apexi world sport... you can get them in catbacks or just the muffler... theyre big mufflers that flow with the es300 very well... itll look good, sound good, and be a high quality product to weld it on should cost about 50-100

niches :(

i reccomend some dunlop fm901's very nice tires, and its real hard to curb your wheels with the fm901's because of its design

i know my rear rubs... it sticks out less than 1/4", i have 19x9.5 in the rear, thats why i said 19x9 with the perfect offset.. the 19x8.5 in front clear perfectly the ride is alright and its quiet since the tires i have dont produce too much road noise.. however, i want my suspension to be a lot stiffer than it is now

the jdm kit isnt discontinued.. but anyway.. the extreme dimensions kit might need to be shaved to be fitted correctly and maybe reinforced since its low quality fiberglass about the rims.... largest you can go is like a 19x9 with the perfect offset, i personally have 19x8.5 on the front and 19x9.5 on the rear with 245/35/19, 275/35/19 respectively to fit the is300 wheels youll need to have like a 5mm spacer

nope im not gonna put nitrous on the car... if i do any forced induction, itll be turbo

here are some pics:

so i ran my car last night at the racetrack with a bunch of my friends... 1st run: rt .507 60' 2.579. 1/8 10.954 @ 66.25mph 1/4 16.820 @ 82.11 2nd run: rt .438 60' 2.650 1/8 11.102 @ 65.48 1/4 17.035 @ 80.99mph 3rd run: rt .499 60' 2.588 1/8 11.032 @ 65.38mph 1/4 16.958 @81.01 all in all my car didnt do too badly considering i have a weird suspension setup, im rolling on 19"s that weigh like 40-50lbs each, hadnt changed oil for 5000 miles, my tires were rubbing through second gear, i had about 100lbs of bike gear on my rear seat, and i have valve leaks... lol next time i run im gonna be rollin on stock wheels, no catback, an exposed filter, oil change, and no valve leaks... im expecting a high 15 or low 16... i want to be in the 13s eventually (waaaay down the line)

i have a 1.75in drop on 245/35/19,275/35/19... im sure you can fit 215's on a 1inch drop, but it really depends on the offset

thanks :) im still a youngin though :(

you do know thats a cheap knockoff of the original 'Exclusive' kit from japan, right?

lexus has the worst cupholders ever

the 01 headlights are made for HID and thats why they have a certain reflector on there.. hows the beam pattern on your car?

i wouldnt change a thing... the 19s ride a lot better than the 18x7.5's i had... i also have better traction and cornering

wetsand and buff em

get an apexi world sport or greddy evo2

no halogen bulb looks like HID.. not even silverstars... just get HID, youll be happier in the long run

why not just save up to buy the real ones?

18x8.5 fits perfectly, dunno bout that offset though i personally have 19x8.5/19x9.5 staggered setup

a 225 tire is perfect for a 7.5 wheel if you wanted to stretch it a lil bit you could go for a 215
