Did more to the Legnum, 3inch Fujitsubo cat-back, walbro pump, Grimmspeed 3port boost solenoid & had it reflashed my TME. Goes much better & ended up with 162.5awkw @ 11.8psi. Midrange torque is much better & fuel economy has improved. Pulls as well as a bog stock Evo from my feel. The auto robs power, so it'd be about 25kw more if manual.

Debadged it too & fixed a little bubble in the dash.

Trial fit some suspension & it was immediately obvious it was ridiculously low. I'm clearly ageing as I'd have loved that once upon a time. Before I fit bigger wheels & raise it.

That lowness still cracks me up!

I can relate to this.  'Back in the day' I used to have a minitruck that used to roll about an inch off the ground, the ride was ****, I couldn't go into carparks as I'd get stuck and I'd simply poop myself if I ever saw cops.  I thought all this added to its 'coolness'.  These days I prefer my cars to ride and handle well.

A lot more sensible now. Trying to get my garage line up in a more "Jay" kind of a spec. No massive spends, just attention detail & overall ability. Coated my old 19's in matching pearl white, changed the suspension/raised the height, tinted the windows, touched up the exterior, restored the headlights/foggies/instrument cover, installed a Rhino "diy" lip, installed 6.5 Polk component speakers (sound very clear even w/o amp).
 

 

 

 

 

 
Didn't totally neglect the MR2. Took for a few drives recently & it started to sound like a tractor, found the dump bolts had come off.
 

 
A trip to Robbo's spares & $4 later, problem solved & the MR2 is soldiering on.

Wagon looks great now! You going to ditch the yellow number plates as well? The basic slimline personalised black/white ones wouldn't stand out as much.

Absolutely buddy. Just a simple black on white background re-make. I'm borderline offended by the ongoing cost of having a different coloured plate in NSW. Will also ditch the plate holder & put a spacer on the front so I don't have to bend the plate. A fellow Leggie owner told me I could get one from certain cars @ Pick N Payless.
 
Apart from that, will change the foggy bulbs to white & get LED white license plate, reverse & interior lights. Will probably buy a few of those so I can do the same on the MR2 & Lexus.

Ok, so I think I'm going to have to change the title of this thread again. Sold the IS250. It was an excellent car & served me very well (shared great moments in my life with that car), but I've been a bit sad that I can only really enjoy a "fun" car on my own. Like many here, have a daughter so the MR2 & RX7 aren't feasible. My Wife was "pressuring" to buy me a birthday present (I resisted heavily). Guess she knew all along that I'd always want another car. She approved a purchase of my choice, so I went out on the hunt. F80 M3 was on the list, AWESOME CAR! Massive respect, there's so much in it & it's truly a great drive. The purchase price is significant enough, but the thought of it depreciating $1000 dollars a month, was a bit too much for me to stomach. Also considered RC-F, but 2-doors won't cut it. C63 AMG is nice, but I've had bad experiences with the silver arrow in the past & I really don't like the new shape. Audi......cool but I will never own that marque again.
 
Enter the Lexus IS-F! Picked it up last week. It ticked all the boxes:
4 door
FUN in an Australian V8 kinda way
 
 

 
First of what I'm sure will be many trips to the petrol station:

 
Not going to bother lying or fooling myself. I will not keep this car stock.
 
Before I drove off & after handing over a wad of money, installed an Injen intake on the spot:
 

 
Within days (took days rather than a day due to an interstate business trip), I purchased & fitted a Borla header back exhaust with high-flow cats. Can't have a V8 without that sound!
 

 
Will take a bit of time later on to give details of the IS-F. I LOVE IT!!!

IS-F'n nice.

Bought some goodies which will be fitted during the week. The car previously had a Toms lip kit, which was removed before I bought it. I tracked down the buyer & bought the bits back.
 
Toms front diffuser lip & rear diffuser. More carbon fibre. Being touched up by my panel beater right now as the rear had a bit of damage (I'll clean it up & even out the other side to match):
 

 

 

 

 
Apparently the front lip/diffuser is a proven design/improvement. Not that I'd often make use of it to be honest.

Very nice Jay. The joys of torque low in the rev range :) 
 
The diffuser will look awesome. Just fitted one to our Saab Aero wagon that looks pretty much identical to the one you have. 
Any idea yet as to what rims are going on it?
