  1. Hello Guys!

    Im thinking about slamming my IS and i just need some feedbacks.

    Considering on slamming it 2" on D2 pro lowering springs, will it rub or is it a bad idea to drop it that low?

    I have 18' on them now

  2. an auto part worker aka mr WRX STI :lol: do you think i need to replace all four or just the 2 fronts?
    A dyno? Who told you that? :lol:

    You probably just need to replace the 02 sensors. But you might want to bring it in to the dealer first to confirm. If the 02 sensors aren't working, then they are sending the wrong signal to the ECU causing the lean/rich air mixture.

    It's hard to tell from here. You'll need to take it in and have them scan the ecu and test the 02's to figure out which ones need to be replaced and which ones are miss reading because of the fuault codes. DO NOT RESET THE ECU!!! The tech will need to read the info there to make it easier. the hand held scanners at the parts stores only read the codes and can interpret the basic info. the scanners the techs use at Toyota can tell them much more info. You probalby have a heater wire issue. It's a known problem. If they say they have to replce the 02's, you can buy them on ebay pretty cheap, but make sure you stay with Denso's. Don't use Bosch or some generic, as Denso's seem to be the only ones that work right.

    when my car idles it fine but when i drive and let it ride, it starts to act funny meaning the rpm gauge drops down below 1. i was told not to drive my car anymore. :( not sure what to do now.

  4. Went to Auto Parts and had them do a scan and the codes are PO171 and PO174 Bank 1&2 are too lean also had PO420 Bank 1 catalyst eff below threshold. Was told that i needed to run a dyno :o due to the fact that my car was running too lean. I just clean the MAF and now my car putts when im driving. Cuts off when i make a full stop. NEED HELP

    do you still have the exhaust? if so when can i come by and pick it up?

    I still have it. It's in Northeast Alabama.

    would you ship it out to me?

    Been busy. I'll try to take a pic today so you can decide if you want it.

  6. Hi Guys,

    Im having a problem starting problem with my IS.. Im able to start the car in the morning but when the weather heats up i am unable to start the car. A new battery and starter were replace and the problem still occurs. Can it be my spark plugs are going out? Or maybe my fuel pump?

  7. ok this has been bugging me out for the past couple of days. im having a hard time getting sound to my new radio, i bought the metra harness for it and still no luck... i tried to strip some of the wires for left and right front speakers and no luck either... what should i do next? should i just take it to best buy or circuit city?
