somebody took this flick at a bbq for my friend's car club over the weekend...

 

this rx was at the bbq too...i'm not feelin' the offset of the front rims...paint job is ok...she has a full system in back that's painted to match body too but the paint job there blows...it's for sale...

 

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

 

those RX's looks good

Where in Washington are you?

 

thanks! i'm in sunny seattle! you?

 

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

 

haha...that's not clear sidemarkers...her amber lenses were broke...she musta hit something...i thought they were clear joints too till i looked at them...

 

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

Anyways, great looking RX's

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.

 

ur 20" rims had always been my inspirition.

 

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


hows the ride if so...??

 

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.

 

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


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

 

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??
