Sparkystav Looks good mate! So is the shifter just forward at the moment?

Yes it is sitting forward and in the 1st and 3rd gear it hits the center console. I am plannig to fit the extended parts next week.

Receicved today a Precision PW46. The one I am using now is a Tial 38, which is small for the turbo I am using.

Hi Stav, I saw the advert on your facebook page recently. I ordered the wastegate three weeks ago. If a new that you are selling your part I would had reconsidered the purchase of a the PW46.

More parts arrived for the 2JZ. As mentioned before need a fuel return line. 1GFE does not have a fuel return line. It is fitted on the fuel pump holder. So in order to complete the fuel return kit I needed to order a jet pump killer and an fuel regulator adaptor. Decided to go for Sard parts.

Happy New Year everybody. I wish all the best to all of the members.
Just before Xmas Mishimoto intercooler was fitted on the car. As you see from the pic it is massive, but it does its job well. Now the problem is the front bumper. It does not fit well on the chassis. The position of the silicone hoses touch the lower grill of the bumper and do not allow to fit correctly. Now I have arrange to take it to the body shop to trim the lower grill. Some trimming was needed also on the top grille. Also the headlight washers had to be removed. You upgrade a part and need to do more upgrades. Well this is tuning I believe...but I have not regret it yet.

Yesterday I also fit the new Diode Dynamic Leds for the cabin interior and the boot. As you see from the pics they have done a massive improvement in lighting, especially at the boot. I suggest all of the Lexus IS 1st gen to do this upgrade and it is a cheap mode.
