check it...if you look up close to the paint job here it appears they painted it in a non-enclosed environment...dust particles and even a bug that got sprayed over...not the best...good from far, tho

Nice trunk on the orange. Clear sidemarkers looks really sweet, I installed them on my RX as well.

i'm from Vancouver, WA. I drive past Seattle all the time, because my sister lives in Lynnwood, WA.

Anyways, great looking RX's :thumbup:

We just got my wife a 99 RX300 like 6 months ago. We both love it. Its pretty much stock for now. We're in the process of buying a house, so aftermarket parts will have to wait. :thumbup:

is this Silver RX lowered...? looks like a 1 inch drop...?


hows the ride if so...??

StrmRdr23 Jul 26, 2005 02:09 PM

it's actually 1.2" drop on some eibach springs...ride is fine...i thought the stock ride was a bit too mushy, but with new springs it's definitely tighter...

cool thanks i thot so...


if you dont mind me asking " How much" stiffer does it feel if you can quantify this ...?


i ask as i am "battling" with my wife over this...I just put the big Wheels & tires on it & i love it looks & performance wise...but the wife already says she can feel the difference in ride quality... she likes it soft... i like it firm...

I told her she will get used to it in a day & she did... all good....but i am wondering how much she will geek out if i pop these springs on & don't warn her.... she likes it HIGH as well & that is just too bad hahah... we will drop it a bit.


Finally did u put those springs on the OEM shox or upgrade the shox as well...

the Only shox I have seen that are a reasonably priced upgrade over stock I believe is the KYB GR2 series shox for about 300 bux...a set...

if one is not expecting Tein Flex performance & adjustability, than these should be fine...I used to run Tokico Illuminas on my IS before i got the Tein Flex & those were nice shocks for sure especially for the price...


thanks again

That's not the stock grille on the silver vehicle, is it?? Looks great. L-tuned??

My brother has a 400h and I think the grille looks lousy.

edgy Jul 26, 2005 05:14 PM

i believe that is the RMM grille....?


& it appears that some one has been eating cookies or something on yer brothers 400H grille...?

:p

uthorns197 Jul 26, 2005 08:56 PM

I'm not familiar with the RMM grille. It looks like it might be the Coach grille. Whatever it is, it looks great. A heck of a lot better than the 400h's grille.

What's with the bottle in the back of the orange vehicle?? Nitrous oxide??
