LEXUS IS200 - The most fun car to go sideways
Well as you know I am looking for the required spare parts for my Eaton M62 supercharger in order to do a precaution service. Well today I managed to find the first part. I bought the pulley bearing. The shop did not have the Nachi bearing (was out of stock), but we found together with the seller the dimensions of the nachi bearing and I got a PFI bearing (made in USA), which has exactly the same dimensions. And the price? Only 10 euro.

Buy the look of what the parts are costing, it'll be worth doing mate even if its just for piece of mind, knowing the charger will be running nice and smooth with fresh oil and bearings :thumbup1:

Yes the parts from USA are quite cheap. I want the charger to last and work smoothly that is why i want to service it. Next step is to buy the oil seal and the charger oil.

Yes and also it must have x working hours since it had two previous owners which also i do not know how well they treated the supercharger.

The pic is not very good, but I will take a better one tomorrow.
While the car was on the ramp I took some photos of my HKS Silent Exhaust.

LEXUS IS200 - The most fun car to go sideways
Hi. As some of you might now I fitted an HJS 200 cell catalytic converter a few weeks ago instead of the Magnaflow catalyst that I bought from ebay. The reason of this decision was due to the inform I got from two exhaust tuning shops I visited in order to arrange an appointment to fit the Magnaflow exhaust. Both shops informed me that the model of the Magnaflow I bought was small and not adiquate to handle more than 200bhp. I would probably damage the Magnaflow catalytic converter and maybe the O2 sensor (fitted after the catalytic converter). So they suggested to fit an HJS 200 cell. They also stated that I would not have problems with check engine light. So since I wanted more performance I decided to go for the HJS catalytic converter. Unfortunately after a few days the check engine light appeared while I was driving with a steady speed (90km) at the heighway. I pulled over and reset the ECU and the check engine light turned off. This phenomenon happened two more times again while I was driving the motorway. All the times that I drived aggresively and full throttle I did not have any problems. I enjoyed the extra power and performance. So today I went back to the exhaust shop and fitted a ceramic spacer. So I hope I will not have any further problems with check engine light. The pic shows the HJS cat before we added the spacer:

you could have just completely got rid of that o2 sensor as it does nothing but tell the car weather the cats working properly.
you could have replaced it with an o2 sim and no problems. the two in the manifold control the AFR etc.
