  2. East Anglia. put it in auto store (cambridge) they have lots of exotica stored and a few classic race cars . Their Garage team (Simon and Stewart) have looked after a few of the Team Tarmac cars http://www.autostore.co.uk/ Its £90 a month which Standard Dry Storage is in purpose built industrial quality units on concrete flooring. Even if Dynamic Storage options are not specified by the owner, all cars are inspected weekly for tyre deflation or fluid leakage, which will be rectified immediately and the owner notified with our request for further instructions and to take corrective action. Tyre pressures are checked/adjusted to 50% over pressure bi-monthly, as is the battery charge condition, which will be boosted if necessary, at no extra cost.
  3. Wants to do that this year but so busy with other things looks awesome
  4. are you on about these? if so they do come up for sale occasionally they are gt4 wheels?
  5. im stilll not sure on the wing
  6. Yes they will fit with spacers, But personally i would get the US wheels as they will be the right width. If memory serves me right the RX8 wheels are only 8j so naturally dosnt run a staggered set up, also i think the offset on the rx8 wheels is around 50 so your going to be looking at a spacer of 25-30mm for the front and maybe 35-40mm on the rear to get the rx8 wheels inline with the stock 350z wheels. then if you want them spaced out for looks like many do with the Z you need to add another 15-20mm each corner and a 50mm spacer is alot
  7. This is Dans secret fetish now being released on the world.
  8. welcome to our world.
  9. earning your stripes
  10. Mpss leave the Falken for dust i have gone from MPSS to the Falkens (fk453) and dont have half as much 'Confidence' i guess would be the right word in comparison the car feels alot more loose under me
  11. have to say it i think Chris Harris and Rory might have saved Topgear 2.0 for me
  12. Turbo and a Straight pipe and your on your way My old s14 used to flame all the time loading up boost in a higher gear then letting off at low rpms, more than likely the reason the engine got noisy after a while
  13. im after a good pair of brembo rear calipers
  14. bmw z4 2.0 or 2.5? Audi tt mk2 2.0tfsi
  15. More than likely, also if tyres are brand new they will be a bit slippery till worn in.
  16. None of this has much to do the orginal post. There are plenty of diesel cars with manual boxes if that's your thing, but I cannot see Lexus going down the diesel route after their last IS. You do know underneath the CT200H is just a Prius, and I cannot imagine anyone at Toyota have any interest in turning a Prius into a hot-hatch of any kind. yes i do but Golf gti / Golf E?? why cant there be both ?
  17. Too soon junior! Also OP - Avoid the garages price for that powerflow system, too expensive. give me a brake
  18. Maybe look to something like the scorpion exhaust
  19. They have done it already, it'll be ready to order by next week (Sep 2015). http://www.lexus.co....tQ&gclsrc=aw.ds It'll be same engine as in NX 200t, so 240bhp, likley a sub 7 second 0-60 time, quoted 40mpg. If they price it like the NX the IS200t will only be avaliable in 'F-sport' spec, and bit more expensive than the IS300H, so list will be around £34-35K (you wouldnt need to addon any other options). Wait 6 months and your be able to get 15% off that price, so £30K ish. The IS actually has a great chassis, in terms of road holding and handling the bumps its better stock than my old E90 BMW 335i. No sign of another IS-F though. all mated to 8 speed auto box why are Lexus idiots? put a diesel in the ct200 and make an rival for the 1 series and A series already Why do you want a diesel?? I get better mpg out of our hybrid IS300H (68mpg) than I could out of the diesel Civic (57mpg). The next generation of Toyota's hybrid drive is going to be out soon in the next Prius, looking like much the same but with another 10% improvement in economy. Toyota are betting everything on hydrogen fuel cell cars, I was actually quite suprised they released a V8 RF-C and not a hybrid unit like in the GS350h...So someone working there must love the good old petrol engines+cylinders as much as you guys Because Manual transmission. what sells more now 1.6 diesel civics or Ct200h's it wouldn't be hard to put the 1.6 diesel from the auris in it and make a fortune, then put the 2.0t lump in it and make a hot hatch
