just wondering, I saw a lowered black IS300 at WoodB. & 16th in Markham at the Timmy's parking lot Saturday night. I also saw a yellow IS300 with wing turning onto highway 7 near the 400.

I was in a silver IS300.

I have a Black IS, but that wasn't me you saw! Did the Black one look sick lowered ?

I think I know the guy with the yellow, and it's a little too riceeee !

I've got a lowered yellow, but no wing yet. I'm looking for a Blitz style wing. The real thing is too expensive, an imitation will do just fine, thanks. Anyone know where I can find the Blitz style wing?

Don't be to worried about being lowered in winter. I drove a lowered Civic in Barrie, Ontario last winter. Just get really good snow tires and you'll be ok. But you gotta lower! :wink:

I drove in the winter as well. It's ALL about the tires. I changed the wheels to 16 inch with snows. Besides, we rarely have huge snowstorms anyways. And if that was the case, any car would have trouble - lowered or not. YOU MUST LOWER YOUR RIDE!

I'd like to go to the meet, but I might have to play soccer... we'll see.

Hows the ride with the HA's?? I heard that there the closest to the factory ride. I also heard good things about HKS also.
Yeah, Im lookin to get coilovers installed before the summer ends. How much did James get them for including install?? You recommend anything??

I have never been in car with adjustable coilover setup..

James should answer this..

judging from .net i don't think u can go wrong with any coilovers for IS300..
(everyone likes what they have..)

and generally more expensive the better..

Hi
the TEIN HA is great, however, the noise issue is the imperfection.....i am stilling playing around with the damping...um close to stock...i don't really think it is...i hope so though...it's always a little bouncy/bumpy with the aftermarket coilovers...

the installaiton you r looking for around $150

have fun on SAT!!
