  1. That looks fantastic mate. Great colour choice!
  2. I'm running an RPS Max with a street disc (factory NA disc!). No issues here, however I believe they are no longer available. The alternative is the Spec Stage 3+ that Paul at Garage Whifbitz sells.

    Lexus IS250

    My dad had one for a few years back in 2009. His was a 2005 (55) SE-L in Windsor blue with Grey leather. It had the active cruise control, pre-crash system, auto rear blind, heated and air conditioned seats, reversing camera, sat nav + more. It was a fantastic car and he had zero issues with it in the three years of ownership. Lexus were fantastic to deal with too. In contrary to the above, I always found the sat nav to be excellent. It was actively looking for traffic at all times and gave clear instructions. He now has a 2010 GS450H, which he has had for 4 years. He's looking at an RCF now as he's very happy with the Lexus brand.
  4. GLWS Mike, looks a fantastic car. What's next?
  5. Just in case you thought we had forgotten you Ed....
  6. Sounds spot on mate, PM your paypal[emoji1303]
  7. Hi buddy, Fairly urgent as I need to try and resolve an issue I have with the car running lean at idle. If you wouldn't mind taking a look, I would be extremely grateful!
  8. Hi all, As above, must be in good working order. Thanks, Josh
  9. Started looking at Earthing points this morning, all engine earths are fine. ECU earths will be my next point of call. Battery/alternator have only recently been replaced mate. I will also check the fuel pump out, although it would be strange if it was pump related as I'm getting an AFR 11 on boost.
  10. Thanks all for your suggestions. I think I'm going to book in with Chris at EFITuning in Runcorn. Have any of you guys had any experience with him? He's big in the Honda/Renault world but is more than happy to map the AEM.
  11. His name is Harry Wooton. Lovely supra!
  12. Car looks spot on Harley, you sure you want to change those wheels?!
  13. Abbey Motorsport have said they won't touch the earlier AEM ECU's, so that's those guys out

  15. Got you, I'll need to look to find where the ECU earthing points are, as I'm unsure. I'll try and video the noise from the IACV tonight so that you know what I mean. Also, the car only runs lean when warm/the car is restarted. I'll get my multimeter on it today mate - cheers. It's a Walbro 255lph with a permanent 12v feed via resistor
  16. Beautiful car Niall, always been a fan. GLWS mate
  17. Cheers mate, fingers crossed I'll have a look at all the engine earths tomorrow evening, clean them up and reattach. Will feedback, thanks again! That's the plan mate, if they won't provide the password, you can clear the map and start again. I would just like to try and get to the bottom of this issue before sending it somewhere else for them to potentially turn it away. I've had a smoke test carried out that didn't highlight any leaks, maybe I should try a high pressure test? I know mate, after all the money I spent with them, their attitude has just been poor and in honesty, down right insulting.
  18. Tell me about it. The fact that there are so many single Supra's out there, most people's tune will be similar anyway. I'm proceeding down the legal route, so I would say not mate[emoji23] I can understand them locking it in the first place, but to withhold the password is ridiculous. It's not his software on the ECU, has merely entered figures into the preloaded software. Nothing at all really, other than the revs dying when rolling to a junction slowly. Also, my IACV rattles when the engine is off and ignition is on. Intermittently but you can hear it. It ran spot on really, prior to this fault developing
  19. Thanks mate, very much appreciated:thumbs:
  20. Indeed to both of you:( Unfortunately, I don't know what to do to investigate this issue any further now until I book in with someone for a map
  21. So, without access to the ECU are there any other checks I can carry out to eradicate certain issues from the running?
  22. I'm with you Chris. I tried to ask amicably, I've now been met with aggression so I have flexed the legal muscles too. The best option is to clear the ECU and get it mapped elsewhere, but that may be compounded by the issue I have at the moment. My solicitor and CAB seem to believe I'm in terra firma against the sales of goods act/consumer rights act. I wouldn't trust them not to adjust the tune mate. It would worry me them having access to it all over again. Made for an interesting read, they also make the point about blocking functionality that the customer has paid for.... They're based in Leicester and not on here mate. Tell me about it[emoji20]
