TRACKMKIII - Thanks for the kind words! They are an OE Lexus F-Sport Accessory wheel for IS/GS RWD. Even came with F-Sport 'Install Kit' (lugs). No Spacers / adapters. Thanks!

Thanks man.

Next weekend, I am picking up a short block for a complete build. Plan is to have the block built and done when the Aristo is imported later this year. Swap the head from the stock Aristo motor to the built block.

Lots of stuff to do in the next 6 months to prep.

Gave her a service today with a friend who has a hoist in his garage, changed the diff and engine oil..oil and air filter and wow the amount of dirt, etc that came off the air filter was crazy. I always bought new filters in the past, but i have a K&N filter now and used the re-charge kit for it for the first time, really impressed with how clean the filter is now, great product.
Was purring on the drive home.
Also polished up the tips a little on the FGK's...but after doing that i'm going to polish the rest of them back to that shiny stainless. : )

Thumbs down Overheating …

Car was overheating.
Changed the Thermostat and the radiator cap today. Wasnt a bad job.
It still overheats. Will have too give it a good ride to see if it still does it
Otherwise i will have to look in the thousand other things that can cause overheating.

They are on. Bought some garbage Megan coilovers for now. Need adjustable toe rods and traction rods before I can lower it. running 265/40 on a 19X10+30 wheel. There's just a little too much meat there to get them under the lips without some camber. I have Nasiga-Auto rear lower control arms, but adding length (They go up to +20mm) just pulls a ton of tow-in without the adjustable rods.

Wink Cooling Problem Solved!

So guys about my cooling problem, i made a testdrive and my flexus keepd the temperature! whoooo! at the end it was only the radiator cap and the thermostat.
Happy Days! So i tried to make a fast render how my GSF (if i ever can afford one) will look like! Work Ewings would look killer in my opinion!
