Members in the South West

by Stoney, 16-08-2019, 08:53 AM

Hi there peoples.

Now that my status has been officially updated to South West Area Rep, I thought I would start this thread with similar intentions as Boost's thread for South East members... except for members in the South West!

I kindly ask any members in the South West to post on this thread. There are no official boundaries, so if you consider yourself to be in the South West, then you probably are! But generally speaking, I suppose we are looking at Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and maybe even as far as Gloucestershire. Members further up the coast (Poole/Southampton area) as well as Bristol and South Wales could also fall into this area too, I guess.

I hope to compile a list of South West members, initially to gauge how many active members there are in the area. I will in future look into arranging some local meets, convoys to national events and possible discounts at local stores and/or facilities.

Please state your location, this is important. Optional info you can also mention may include what car you drive, if you would be interested in attending meets, other suggestions for local activities etc.

I get the impression that there are not so many members in the South West as there seem to be in other areas of the country, though this thread should help me get a better idea. If you have any local friends/family/colleges that are interested in Jap cars, then please encourage them to sign up to the forum and post on this thread too.

Thank you.

Supercharged IS200 race car

by P.Lindblom, 15-08-2019, 01:01 PM

About a year ago I posted a few pics of a weight reduced IS200 that I fitted a supercharger to.

According to Lexus Sweden it's a pre production model and possibly the first IS200 ever made. It has no VIN number so it can't be registered for road use. Also, since it's not registered it has no official owner and nobody seems to be sure whose it actually is. It was used at various motor shows around Europe to promote the launch of the Lexus IS in the late 90s.

The car was then used in a Swedish movie called Livvakterna (Executive Protection) where it was supposed to be totaled in a crash. However, the IS only sustained minor scratches and after the film was done it ended up in a hangar at an airfield near Stockholm, along with a pre production TTE supercharger kit.

Last year the small company called Active Driving, currently in possession of the car asked me if I could fit the supercharged kit for them, as they had heard about my own charger install. When we rolled out the car from the hangar it had 2593 miles on the clock. It had done 200 miles the last ten years.











I took the car home to my parent's house and fitted the supercharger kit on a lovely summer day.







In exchange for the job Active Driving lent me their test track for one day to host the first official Swedish Lexus meet where we had a lot of fun with the IS200 "race car" as well as with an IS-F and other demo cars that Lexus Sweden brought.







Here's a partial lap around the test track. For some reason my ContourHD suddenly stopped recording.

Members in the South

by BOOSST, 15-08-2019, 10:48 AM

Ok, so as some of you already know I was made Area Rep recently for South East primarily..

So, it would be cool if any members who are in that area as such can let me know so I can keep a note and pm you regards meets, potential convoys for events etc.

Plus, it would be cool to get some feedback and ideas on what might interest you regards any meets arranged and that way I can sort things to make them better and draw more members along obviously..

Your input is appreciated, thanks in advance guys n gals..:thumbup:

Hi everyone,

i was told to join the club once i got my Jap car by my mate Pat (lexuspat).

i recently purchased a black 2.0ltr 1991 Toyota Celica GT-R 4 wheel steer JDM Import.

Pat has helped with getting me a few parts on it that he had in the house so today we fitted an Air filter and tinted the rear quarter glass.

I have been told you love pics on here so heres the first one
