Height adjustment on coilovers

by AaronR33, 05-08-2020, 02:15 PM

So I just tried to adjust my coilovers to lower it down a touch and the two bolts that you have to rotate are completely locked in place and wont budge (even when removed and put into a vice using a bit wrench!).

Anyone got any suggestions on what I can do to free these up?

Well hello there,
After holding a couple of mini meets at my pub and being pestered by Pat I thought it should be time that I joined so here I am.
I have been Jap pretty much my whole car life (all 117 of them) and i adore my Toyota MR2s, however after destroying my last one (it decided to land on its roof) i bought a Mazda RX8! well there has been nothing but trouble with that so as its summer ive decided my Honda CBR600RR and the R1 will do sufficiently until the funds come up to get the RX8 back on the road.
Anyway im sure ill see many of you soon
Luke

Hi all,
I joined the forum quite a while back but have only just got back to having time for my cars so not been active.
I've got a '94 Aristo TT with a few mods as my "weekender" (pics below as I know we all like a pic!) and just bought an IS200 sport as a daily driver.
The plan was to keep the IS standard but there's already a TTE bumper waiting to go on for starters.
I'm taking the Aristo to Japshow and hopefully meet some of you there :thumbup1:
Cheers

My Lexus IS250 SE-L

by Multics, 01-08-2020, 03:53 PM

After selling my Skyline I decided to get something much more tame and comfortable. The truth is that I always liked the IS200 but having seen the IS250's interior I couldn't resist and went to buy one.

It's a black 2006 model, SE-L trim with all the goodies except Navigation but hey ho. I wanted an auto but ended-up getting a manual which I kind of regret, the manual box and dual-mass flywheel is not to my liking. The auto is so smooth in comparison. On the plus side, it has all the modern gadgets such as factory HID's, auto wipers, auto lights, memory leather seats, illuminated scuff plates, electric rear privacy screen, trip computer etc...

It's a really nice car to drive, the V6 engine is very smooth and quiet.

This is how the car looked a week after I bought it:




Since there's no cure yet for the common modding bug, I started by swapping all interior bulbs with LED's. The fake wood was getting on my nerves too so I wrapped it in fake carbon fibre (3M Di-Noc):





Last week I installed a Joe-Z blue intake pipe (got it from http://www.l-tunedparts.com), K&N drop in filter and painted the engine cover:



The Joe-Z intake pipe replaced the nasty rubber one but keeps the original air filter box which is very well designed and is a true cold air intake.

I also got a IS-F style front grille and plastidip'ed the chrome grille surround:

The rear "L" badge has been plastidip'ed too as well as the chrome "Lexus" and "IS 250" badges.

The stock 4300k Philips HID bulbs were swapped for a pair of 5000k Morimoto bulbs from The Retrofit Source. These give a much colder white light and are as bright as OEM bulbs. The sidelights were changed to Osram Ledriving LED bulbs which are very bright and very well built. Main beam bulbs were changed to Osram Nightbreaker Plus. Need to change the fog light bulbs now...

I had the rear windows tinted the first week I got it...

That's it for now, I'll be updating this thread every now and then
