Hi everyone from Sydney, Australia

Hi everyone.

I'm located in Sydney, Australia.

Purchased a 2006 Lexus SC430 (Cherry Mica) around 1 year ago and I am slowly undertaking a "stealth" mod programme. Basically, trying to improve the looks, handling and overall technology while maintaining a fairly stock appearance and a balanced ride quality.

Changes so far include Reversing Camera, iPod adapter, Daizen Suspension Bushings and Lexus 18" G-Spider Wheels, Cusco Strut Tower Bar, Stop Tech Front & Rear Drilled & Slotted Rotors.

On the agenda are 2nd Gen GS Front Swaybar and Meister R coilovers, carbon fibre wrap of specific interior items. I believe that Meister R are Forum Sponsors?

In years past I modded various Jap cars but haven't done much for the last 20 or so!

Greetings from norway!

Photography Website

Hey guys.
Chris made a website with his photos on. I saw his idea and copied it effectively.
This website contains some of my pictures I've taken.
Bearing in mind my mac got wiped the other day with no back up so I lost everything :'(
So these pictures, some of them are pulled from Facebook and Email, that's why they may be poorer quality.
But anyway, here it is:

Tell me what you think, and if you have Facebook, press the like button on home page please!
Thanks guys

No longer an Essex Girl.

Well, as the title suggests, I have left Essex behind me. There was nothing wrong with it in particular, although I did get fed up of roses being thrown towards Dufus after Whitney Houston sadly passed away.

I have ventured north, many millions of miles to Milton Keynes to make a new start after a few years of problems down in Essex.

Thakyou goes to Essex for a good couple of years but your water is a little too hard for my liking.

Many thanks.

Aunty Jim.

Youtube Channel

by longsh07, 23-04-2020, 03:04 PM

Hey guys,

I decided start a gaming channel on youtube. Ill be doing play throughs and reviews etc with the aim to join one of the big gaming networks such as The Game Station or Machinima.

It's going to take a while to get there as I've heard Machinima need 1,000 subscribers miniumum and I think The Game Station need 30,000+ views per month!

The channel/Facebook/twitter are still under development, a friend of mine is working on an avatar for me and Im recording more footage when ever I can.

Any views/subscribers you can send my way are a big help and if you can like and follow the Facebook and twitter pages that would be fantastic!
Also any suggestions are most welcome.

IS200 radio wiring issue

by el_gencer, 23-04-2020, 02:51 PM

Hi all, just finished putting my audio back to normal :mad:
I was fitting the sat nav unit and a nokia bluetooth (inc autoleads v3 telemute) when i notice the battery had drained a bit after 2hrs of finishing that install. Basically the car started but had a little struggle. I also noticed that the sat nav unit continued to operate even though the key was out. It would still open/shut/tilt.

Right, bear with me hear on wiring. On a spare iso lead, i connected the sat nav unit to the ground(black pin8) and i then connected the live and +12 to the yellow wire(acc pin 4) with the hope that when the engine and battery is off so is the unit. So i'm not sure if this is the cause of the leak.

Part 2 - Nokia. This seemed to be connected correctly after switching wires around. However the button still seemed to light up blue when pressed with the key out again. I can't remember if this is normal or not for a nokia kit.

My other plan would be to just use the cig lighter circuit to power the sat nav unit as i know that gets killed when the key is removed.

Any advice is welcomed.
