I'm just curious, I have an 08 and my F is daily driving so does LSD makes difference? We all know LSD make a huge difference on track but since my is daily driving so I don't know if I need it.

Well, I think the best answer to your question is that Lexus made the TORSEN LSD standard on all IS-Fs from 2010 forward, knowing that the vast, vast majority of all cars see nothing but street duty. Will the TORSEN LSD help on the track? Of course it will, but you do not have to track your car to reap the benefits of having an LSD. Lexus erred in going with the viscous e-LSD in the 2008/2009 models, realized its mistake and corrected it going forward in MY2010.

Since I have always had LSDs in my cars, I am not one to be able to provide you accurate before and after impressions, but Supraman16, who commented earlier in this thread, can do so. He has a 2008 IS-F and recently installed the OEM TORSEN LSD in his car. From all indications, he is ecstatic with the results. I suspect, but do not know, that having a TORSEN LSD in his MKIV Supra may have persuaded him to install one in his IS-F. Thanks for your interest.

Here's an IS-F carrier for sale for $450: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2ge...adge-set.html. Combined with my OEM TORSEN LSD for $1,500, it would be the best all-in price yet for this must-have combo for 2008/2009 cars.

Would you consider shipping to Australia?

KJH

Will ship if you are paying the shipping cost. It will not be cheap. I say this, not to discourage you, but from experience. I recently took delivery from Wellesley, New Zealand of a BNIB HKS FMIC for my MKIII Supra turbo. It was a long since discontinued item I never expected for find BNIB, so I sucked it up. If truly interested, PM me so we can discuss further.

Thanks for your interest.
