So I searched to see if this fits cause I know I saw somebody with this already in their car and found that they DO NOT fit. The people that have these shifter's in their car have done extensive modifications to get it to fit. I say if you can do it, then do it, then create a write up so the rest of can do it. That would be the way I would do it if I could get a hold of a shifter for cheap.

Search, that will be your friend for a while, till you get to know your car very well. I still search things on here and google, bing, yahoo, ebay, and many more. But to answer your question YES. It all fits the headers may be a bit difficult to get in, but they will. As for the intake, first thing is why would you want one? Second is it will fit, but you would need a new throttle, cruise and transmission shift cables. New or used throttle body. Relocation of your power steering reservoir. Your wiring harness will have to be extended in spots. There are probably more and perhaps someone will chime in, but again your best bet would be to search everything.

Hi,i recently swapped a gs300 tranny in my Lexus sc400,was told everything was plug and play,well after i got the tranny bolted in i found out,that was not true.Now im slapping my self in the face for not making sure it was 100% true.
So now im asking yall how i can fix this do not want to get a new tranny,now il explain my problems so after i figured out that the solenoid plug and whatever the thing is connected to the shifter shaft and the i believe to be speed sensor were all different plugs
so for the shifter shaft i swapped over the old one with no problems-solved
i swapped over the solenoid plug but the new tranny has 5,and the old one only had 4,so now no od
and the speedometer sensor has no plug at all on the new tranny,
so now my question is what can i do?
here is the closest pic i could find on the internet the small box looking solenoid is the one im missing the plug for
any help is very appreciated-sry for not being the best at explaining it all
btw the tranny does same the same model number as the old one

Will the Gen 2 front hub/knuckle assembly fit the Gen 1 without major modifications? I know people have said that the Gen 2 upper control arms fit Gen 1 GS. I have a chance to get newly bearing and hub knuckles from a friends Gen 2 since he totaled his..

Hello club I am wondering if 2nd Gen front coils fit on 1st Gen's? I know the rear will not work because of the fork mounting position the 1st Gen has. The front seems similar though. Anybody have any information on this? Thanks!

GS300 transmission
I need to replace the transmission in the 1999 GS300. I have found a transmission from a 1998 GS400. Will it swap in just fine? If not, why? Thanks!
