The 3GS and 4 GS suspensions are completely different, especially the rear. The 3GS spring/shock is together while on the 4GS they are separate.
Check with RS-R since they make SPECIFIC springs/coilovers for each setup. For too long we have been slapping springs/coils for one version of the car into the other and problems happen.

jmack2688,
This issue applies to any type of lowering on 3gs awd models. The idea is the more aggressive the drop the more of an issue.
LexFather,
Do you know if Lexus corrected the cv positioning on the front suspension of the 4gs? That was the main issue 3gs awd owners are having when dropping the vehicle. I haven't heard of any 4gs awd owners complaining about vibrations/wobbles when their vehicles are lowered.
Thanks,
