^^nice ride. You're right. the L-edition is as close as you can get to the IS trim level and keep the performance of the altezza. does your version come with the 8peaker sound system with the amp as well?

i am new to this club guys. I own an altezza as well.Comes with some nice
HKS coilovers
HKS timing belt
Cusco 3 point strut bar
Cusco Sway bar
Currently i am seeking some advice on some upgrades. Dont really want to go turbo but catching meh tail with increasing the power. I am going to purchase a super pro bushing kit for it, but i want to do something to give the engine a little more juice. I was thinking about getting an Apexi POWER FC to tune the VVT-i.I am not sure of how goo this is though and how much power i can expect. If i can have my car running 230/240 Horses at the wheels i am cool with that. would really appreciate some advice and a good mechanic guys.

hmmm 1st thing is you didn't specify which engine. if its the 1g, you're not going get that figure without forced induction, if its the 3s well there might be hope but you're going have to spend some money. anyways you've come to the right place. these guys will show u the way.

don't forget to sign up for the club :wink:

if it's a 3s that's gonna cost a lot, because you're looking at a tweaked ecu/piggyback, cams (prob sacrificing VVT-I) and some valvetrain work rem 240 whp is around 280-300 at the crank that's a lot in N/A form

I dont mind spending money on meh car or and by the way its the 4th Gen 3SGE beams with the dual vvt-i.I love that ride badddd.
I forgot to mention before i also bought the HKS type two headers and an HKS cold air intake for the car.My main issue is really finding a good meachinc and someone who can import the parts.This is what i was looking at buying

Toda racing Cams maybe 264 should be fine,not to sure (Advice)
Apexi Power FC
OS giken single disc clutch
HKS timing belt.
Oil pump (I hear the toyota OEM pump is best)
ITB's
Exhaust (Advice on a good one)
what you guys think about that , how much power you think i can build with those parts and what i already have and also a good mechanic to handle the job.
