10x for the info. is there a way you can find me the part numbers for the TRD(yellow) sway bars and bushings?

i don't think that Lexus dealer would do any mods for you, may be the most would be to put somethig TRD on your car . as far as waranty goes, Lexus are preaty cool about waranting stuff for you, especially if you do your maintnes with them. obviously the parts that you replace wont be waranty any more, so as if those parts couse failure of other parts, those other parts wont be warantiable any more, but thay may still do it, it all depends

I bought some 15w50 Mobile 1 in a 5 quart container and took it to an oil change place today to get my first oil change done.

why do you put 15W50 in the IS? the owners manual recommends 5W30.

i have an open differential now. would you recommend putting a LSD on my IS? have any body done that? and do you know the price of the LSD?

General rule, the bigger the diameter of the bar, the stiffer. Also you have to watch out for the front to rear stiffness difference or you can end up with a tail happy or twitchy car.

i know, that's way i want to check if some one have installed some bars yet, so they could recomend me the right ones.

btw, does any one know part numbers for TRD sway bars for IS?

a larger rim, say an 18", and low profile tires will help the cornering.

email Mr. Sypher for some help there.  (PM function won't work for you until you hit a post count of 20).

Look at TireRack.com for you possibilities too.

sway bar help may be found at lextasy.com, one of our authorized traders.

You might fancy a few cosmetic items (like eyelids or a lip spoilers) from there, too.  See the add link in several places on th is website.

i want to keep my stock wheels(i have the 5 spoke, 17"), i like them, plus i just put new tires on them. i think that thicker sway bars would do the job, so the car doesn't lean as much on fast turns(like highway exits). i found some sways at tirerack.com, the ones from Eibah may work for me. have any body installed those yet?

Hi, I'm new to this forum, i just bought a 2002 IS300. I love the car, but want to make it a little bit stiffer on cornering. I'm not planing of replacing the springs and shocks for now, but if you have any suggestions, go a head. i want to put thicker sway bars, but i don't want to go too crazy on them. can you give me some ideas of good sway bars that some of you already have. places to buy would help too.
