do you have anything to say about the swift springs, negative or positive?
I have a set I haven't installed yet.
Thanks

Nothing negative to say about the swift springs at all. They are stiffer than stock of course and the ride height is perfect in my opinion. Ride is also still comfortable although the roll is so much less. If there was nothing available from Ohlins, I would have stayed with just the springs. I like being able to adjust the dampening.

Me too. As much as I would love to go the coilover route, I can't justify the cost just yet so I'm thinking of just doing the Swift springs for now.


Let us know how the Ohlins work out for you!

I have not had a re alignment done. Once I get the new wheels and tires, I'll set the final height, Have the corner balancing and alignment done and I'll post the specs then.

Beautiful!

Pardon my ignorance but how did you accomplish this new start-up screen change?

Can this be done on any Lexus model with the big nav screen such as new 4th Gen RX?

Thank You.

I'm assuming you should be able to. I did it on my IS-F as well. Look through your Navigation system manual as the instructions may be different, mainly what to name the folder where the files are saved.

Thanks! Here's how it sits right now. I will adjust and set the final height once I have my new wheels and tires.
