    Luxo Barge ride quality

    Hahahaha!!! Yes, the 460L will have a better ride. Just want to improve the ride on the 200.:) And, I have an E60 M5 for the weekend. ;)

    Luxo Barge ride quality

    There is no vibration coming from my third row seat and I am quite sure they have nothing to do with the ride quality of the rig. What I need is a softer ride. I think this can only be done with softer dampers and springs. In the process of researching but haven't found anything yet. Any help...

    Luxo Barge ride quality

    Singapore has great roads, La. If I change to twenties here, i'd be jiggling all over the place. :bounce2:

    Luxo Barge ride quality

    CivicFerio: Thanks for the info! Much appreciated! I agree in that the 200 will never ride like a high end luxury car. I was just looking to soften up the suspension so I don't feel 50% of the bumps and crevices of our roads. Great info on Koni shocks. I doubt, however, that I can run 25psi on...

    Thanks for the advice! Mark71: I'm already on 285-65 r17 tires and going faster is not an option for me. :) Chimyz: Which manufacturer specifically would be the best to approach?

    Luxo Barge ride quality

    JB: Thanks for the reply. Yes, softer than factory. We have less than smooth roads so your 'soft suspension' in the States is 'hard' here in the Philippines. Tried going down from 32psi to 30psi but still hard. What kind of tunable suspension are you referring to? I was thinking softer dampening...

    Luxo Barge ride quality

    I know you guys are full on off roaders but do any of you know how to make the LC200 ride like a soft luxury vehicle? I use my 200 on a daily basis and I just would like to make the ride softer since road conditions here in our country is less than smooth. Also, what tire would be the softest...

    JDM Toyota Land Cruiser Receives new 318HP 4.6-liter V8 engine!

    I have the V8 diesel version here in the Philippines and its great. Having said that, the option of a gasoline version is not offered here and I would much rather have the gas engine. If it were offered here, Toyota would probably have an asking price way above the diesel version, which costs...

    '98 LC100 VXR V8 Dubai Edition

    Crap! They only opened a year ago so, no, they didn't officially sell the 470 here. Wouldn't the diagnostic tools for the 570 be able to handle the 470?

    '98 LC100 VXR V8 Dubai Edition

    There is a Lexus dealer here and they do sell the new LX570. My question, though, is if a Lexus dealer would be able to diagnose (engine, suspension, etc...) my LC since the Toyota dealers here do not have the diagnostic tools to do so. Thanks!:)

    '98 LC100 VXR V8 Dubai Edition

    Thanks so much for the info. Pardon my ignorance since this is my first LC, but what are spheres? And, where are they located? Also, no Toyota dealership here in the Philippines has the diagnostic tools to service my LC. Would a Lexus dealership have these tools since, essentially, this has...

    '98 LC100 VXR V8 Dubai Edition

    I was wondering if any of you have experienced a problem with you automatic height control suspension. For the past year, my suspension seems to be very hard. The ahc switch works and you can tell sport from comfort BUT comfort is sometimes rock hard. I say sometimes because it can also be...
