My '99 IS200 s - James S - 01-05-2018
Owned the IS known in the family as Rex, for about 18 months.
Done a fair bit of work to it, but only recently has the cosmetics changed.
List so far,
Silicone Hoses,
Kevlar Timing Belt,
Iridium Spark Plugs,
K&N Air Box Filter,
TTE Speedline Corse 18" Alloys with Falken rubber,
Cobra Stainless Steel Cat Back Exhaust,
Pioneer Ipod Head Unit,
Vibe Speakers Front and Rear,
Half Leather Interior Conversion, with Electrics Wired in,
Painted Calipers.
Up untill recently, I had EBC turbo Groove Discs and Red stuff pads on the front, but have just changed them back to normal, as they didn't offer any better performance, and also created masses of dust that was difficult to get off the alloys! So using Mintex pads and discs at the moment, which offer the same amount of stopping power! But not sure if they will work quite as well if they get hot!
Bellow is a couple of pics of the car when I fist got it.

All these are mods are the start of Stage1.
Whats left to do in this part of the project,
Coilovers, ARBs, Tints, and Double DIN screen.
Stage 2 plans include forced induction, and some decent bucket seats and a few bits I got planned to make my car stand out from the crowd, but shall not say anything till I am closer to getting it down. (Don't want anyone knicking my ideas LOL!)
