Toxo, i hope that hayward and scott do a good job and im sure they will as its just a flexi pipe and you will be fitting it yourself. Big Grin

My bro had a full race system done by them over a year ago, less than 20 miles down the road and the engine oil emptied out the back of the car as they had moved the oil lines against the drive shafts. Since then my bro's car has been at TGT for over a year while he tried to get his emgine rebuilt and he is just about getting the insurance money now.

anyway, back on topic. We want pics!!!! Big Grin

heh pics of what, Dan's warped rear disc? Wink

I'm not really doing anything interesting with it at the moment, just the boot release work. I think I'll do the extra fusebox this weekend though so I'll document that.

Sparkystav oh yeah, what was it?

As John says it's warped rear disc on the o/s, whats more peculiar is to why it warped in the first place? pads have good amount left

You could've had a sticky caliper at some point but that's unlikely as the rear calipers on the IS200 are not 'floating' on sliders like on my stupid car. More likely just **** discs off eBay Wink

I would agree with that, the rears were done prior to me purchasing the car so i'm assuming they were supplied by the previous owner and were not the highest quality or oem. Seems strange that I've needed to replace the fronts and rears due to warped discs and the fronts were warped prior to me buying it which I didn't find out until after the sale had been completed on my route home.

Heh I kinda don't want anyone to look at it too closely at JAE cause the bodywork really lets the car down at the moment. The front bumper has a sizeable smash in it and the paint is wearing through on the roof Sad

TRD engine mounts are here though!

Right, I have got these to fit this weekend:

[Image: newFusebox1.jpg]
[Image: newFusebox2.jpg]

I've added so many new circuits to my car (chargecooler pump, engine lid fan kit, rear foglights, boot release) and every time I've done it I've added another relay and another fuse in another location that I then can't reach when the fuse blows... so I decided to do the job properly and fit a new fuse & relay box in a sensible location. We shall see how this goes...

I'll get a photo of the fan kit up soon, but it looks like this:
