Op could you please document the manual swap and show us pictures? My auto tranny is about to go **** up! Im trying to find as much info as I can so I could just do a manual swap instead of buying another auto trans.

Its pretty much the same thing as doing it on the SC300. The only difference is that on the GS you dont have a premade template on the firewall to show you where to drill the holes. Good luck!

You can use the clutch cylinder and pedals from an IS300 and yes you'll need a shifter extension. Check out http://store.driftmotion.com/static/c-lexusscgs.php for more help.
