Two nights ago, despite my dislike of my IS 300, I realized it's the perfect car for me. It got into a fight with a deer, much like my Celicas, except the Lexus came out on top. I've bought a deer-proof car. Needless to say, I've finally found a good excuse to get new brakes. I've always hated these.
Today, however... New Toyota parts!  Now to order a Walbro fuel pump for the BEAMS. Tomorrow, I'll have 4 Celicas, 2 BEAMS, and 3 5S's at my house. Toyota owes me sponsorship dollars.

Glad to hear the IS survived it's first (and hopefully only) scrape with a deer Dan.
Today, I decided that I will attempt to install my header tomorrow...if the rusted on heatshield bolts and impending east coast hurricane will let me.

if it wasn't for that dam hurricane i would do my GT4 front end conversion tomorrow. but today i did some work
 changed spark plugs, cables, distributor cap and rotor and did an oil change. gonna clean my injen air filter, and also i found out the oil is getting into the number 2 spark plug and going to see how i go about and get that fixed. unfortunatly my fuel filter was stuck like a Muth@* &*^#%er so tuesday when i drop it off to get these motor mounts installed im going to ask them to change it.

QUOTE (richee3 @ Jun 8, 2011 - 1:32 AM) . . .    . . . At least it wasn't a deer this time  I spoke too soon. Last week, a deer tagged the IS.. and did virtually no damage. Called the insurance company and got some estimates today, $2,500 in damage. It'll be fixed soon.
