  1. My budget is limited, but not, if that makes sense. It's limited in the amount all at once, but not limited to how many times I will spend small amounts. In other words, I could spend a couple of hundreds in short amount of times or save in a short period and spend a larger amount. Bottom line, I'll spend what I have to get the car to handle and look impressive. So hit me with ballpark numbers of items I should get:exhaust, body kit, etc, and I'll tell you what I could do right away and what I'd need to wait.. Thanks for the help guys!
  2. The error code is actually p0057 and it is for the 02 oxygen heat sensor for bank 2 sensor 2. I'm looking to see where is the sensor located in the car. If anyone has an idea or the right answer, it would be greatly appreciated.
  3. I'm a proud new owner of a black on black IS 300. Don't know much about my own car other than it's HELL OF A BETTER car than what I had (Ki-ki-ki-kia). Of course, now I want to add some pep to the car's performance AND I want to make it look more aggressive. So here's what I'd like from my fellow professional IS owners: In your expert opinion, describe in stages how to improve my car to go from stock to mod. Reason I ask for stages, is because unlike some folks and big name sponsors, I don't have $$ coming out of the trees so I need to know how to go from step 1 to the end until I can get to my goal. And here's my goal: I want to improve my acceleration and top speed but also improve the exterior look as well as interior - that's all! lol!! :D . Since I think the IS 300 tops out at 140-145 mph, then top speed improvements can wait until later, however, I'd like to improve the acceleration (0-60) with of course increasing my stock HP. I'd also like to improve the look. Since I have a black on black, I'd like to add a body kit to match the colors and I'd like to add some wheels to match the color - unless, something chromed will enhance the aggressive look more than black with chrome trim wheels. So, here are some questions as baseline; 1) what is the best starter kit for performance that I should invest in: intake, exhaust, etc.? ( :D the supercharger will have to be a late stage addition if I'm getting my !Removed! whipped regularly) 2) what kind of wheels should I be looking at (optimal size for rims and tires)? 3) What kind of car would it be if I didn't have high quality sound? So what's good for that? 4) Can you please allow me the pleasure to see some of the work you've either done to your car or have seen from other cars so that I can use those as my motivation.... I'm hyped about owning an IS 300, so come on people show me I've made a great choice... ========================== We fly high, no lie and you know this...... BALLIN'!!!
