You can however program in another key as long as you have an existing master key. If you don't have a master key then a locksmith with a scan tool or the dealer can reset the immobiliser for you and program in additional keys.
I have these keys for sale on my site. Click on the link in my signature line.
Take care,

P.S. I've edited 2 of my posts because in my tired state of mind last night I read that the other vehicle was a SC430 but I realize today it says LS430.
So, to answer your original question. You can use the remote from the LS430 on your GS430. They are the same electronic components.
