Nice photo. No wondering why you still have your Lexus.

I am assuming that there are some transformations under the bonnet so it goes as fast as it looks.

Thanks mate! It's gone through a full an IS350 conversion so it definitely has more grunt

Hey guys, It's been a very long time since I've logged in and gave an update.

I've still got my Lexus after all these years. It's gone through a big transformation, and lots has been done.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi, and would be good to meet up with some of the old school members that are still around!

Can i enter my is250 into the show and shine? :P

Black roof looks boss! almost looks as if you have a nice dark tint moonroof there.

:)

I guess it's wash/photoshoot soon like the old days! :)

Yes it is Peter! Need wheels now ;)

one word - wow !

:)

Very nice John! I like the black/silver theme going on :)

looks very nice alex... so when are the new shoes being fitted?

In time. I'm just trying to be patient getting the right set :)

But seriously, I can't wait.

Oh welcome to stanceworks you sly person you :P

Haha thanks mate :) I've been lurking there for a while now!

It's vinyl wrap guys. I ripped the roof spoiler off because I didn't like the look of the white on there.. Didn't flow very nicely.

Black one is on it's way :)

Finally an update! ;)

Nice sunny day, so I thought I'd take a few quick snaps.

I messaged u and I get a reply for wrong number?

Good to see you're modding the Lexus Alex :D

Like everyone says... wheelssss! I'm guessing 19inch minimum with a low offset..?

Very close Trung!

+1 kenneth

:)

Excellent purchase sir!

Thanks!

I'd say you're on the right track with all ur mods.. ;)

Now, wheels wheels wheels. :D

They will come next year some time :)

Nice new next project Alex. & back to team white :D

One of these is also on my 'next car list'.

How you finding the speed transistion from the VII to this?

Missed white - Best colour!

The speed transition from the VII to the IS250 is almost non-existant

as mentioned by someone else before, "I like where this is heading.." I haz a real soft-spot (but also a hard spot too lawl) for the is250.

Thanks mate!

Hey Alex,long time no speak/type :D

awesome upgrade mate and yeah i did say upgrade,i loved your EVO but this is a whole new level of comfort and style,look forward to seeing what shoes she ends up with

Hey Lee! Long time, long time..

Thanks, Definitely an upgrade in my eyes too in terms of styling and comfort! For shoes, I'm pretty set with something already, but I justified with the missus that I'll get them when my current tyres are close to needing a replacement ;)

Sexy!

:)

BEFORE:

AFTER:

It's a boring but comfortable ride Peter. Let's do a carwash meet soon :)

A spoiler or two..

Nice set of Garax Bulbs!

I've got the same set waiting to be installed :)

The next thing that was done was a much needed tint.

Went to get my car battery changed, and while I was at the dealership I thought I'd get a set of window visors put on as well :)

That's a very nice looking Vitz

Correct! KW's Variant 3s!

Let me tell you these coilovers are AWESOME.. The ride quality is very close to stock which is the main reason why I got these.

Slammed on the lowest they would go, and getting a wheel alignment.

So I washed the car for the first time at a friends place (wheels haven't been cleaned before this shot was taken).

Well,well, well.. Look what do we have here? Have a guess at what they are? :)

Thanks guys!

More updates to come.. slowly roll them out.. hehe

I've been considering painting my roof black since i've got it.. I've seen it, and it looks awesome!

I'm Back!

I'm glad to be back in the Toyota Community.

I get asked occasionally how the Evo and the IS250 compare - They are worlds apart in so many ways.

- The Evo -

Bloody quick, bloody fast, handles like it's on rails, bloody fast, occasionally looking out for the popo, but to be honest it was bloody fast.

- The IS250 -

Very comfortable, super luxurious, so quiet, makes me sleepy driving this damn thing, very cruisey, and I think it looks sexier.

I bought this car a few months ago, but I've been too lazy to make up a new post so here it is!

This is when I took it for a test drive: STOCK!

Very nice Duy!

They look like my ex recaro's ;)

Thanks for the comment guys.

The cars are worlds apart in terms of luxuries/power.

I've only ever been pulled over once for my car, and that was for them thinking I didn't have number plates at the front because it was on the side. No probs there, they laughed it out and let me go.

It isn't a pain to drive at all. The clutch is very easy to engage without stalling. Turbo spool is fantastic, very responsive now that I run on E85.

Hi guys! It's been ages since I last posted here.. A fair few things have changed since the last time I posted.

This is what she looks like now:

250 killawasps atw and now for sale.

I'm now part Toyota again as I've got myself a Lexus IS250 :)

time has come, new look and photos up later today :)

Please keep your clothes on Vinh..

Very nice photo coverage Rhyse!
