No. It is a receiver and display unit. It reads from your existing sensors. No impact to your Lexus system. Both co-exist.
This implies that off-the-shelf TPMS sensors (42607-33022 or equivalent) measure and transmit both temperature and pressure. Or am I missing something?

Without question they do. It is all visible in Techstream.

You can also set pressure and temperature warning values too.
This is really great news. So glad the system works with the OEM sensors. That's massively good.
So totally not F related. But I picked up another toy (still have the F). 2017 AMG GTS with Renntech Stage 2 / 3 tune, downpipes and turbos. The car is a beast (should be 700hp+ and will get it dynoed). More of a muscle car versus the Swiss army knife that the ISF....but the F still holds a special place in my heart! That's why I still have the F too!

Yes, the hood is huge but really doesn't bother other than when parking.
The F will be winter and track car and the AMG will be the summer car. I've been threatened under penalty of divorce if I track the AMG. But I hope to take it out at least a few times in a few years. The N/A v8 of the F is so bulletproof and I love not worrying about it on track. It takes the abuse and still takes me to work.
Been awhile since I last posted. All of my track days have been rainouts this year. But finally hitting Pitt Race this Labor Day weekend.
However, a few weeks ago my radiator went out on me. One benefit of a vented hood, I knew immediately when the coolant came thru the vent and started hitting the windshield lol. Figs' CSF radiator hasn't hit the market so I went Koyo. They are out of stock everywhere, and luckily a fellow owner came through for me and another came through on an RR trans cooler. It didn't help that my dog ate the instructions either!
She is back on the road today and ready to hit the track! Fingers crossed.....
Sept 2023 - Pitt Race
With all the rainouts, sadly I finally got the F out for its first track day of the year. I headed back to Pitt Race after a 4 year hiatus. Was hoping to hit sub-2s (2:05 was PB). Unfortunately first two sessions werr overcrowded and full of black flags. With no clean laps, the best I could manage was a disappointing 2:09. Then midway thru the 3rd session, I was mistakenly black flagged. But rather than go back out, I went back to the grid. Good thing I did because I noticed my new trans cooler was leaking. Worried about the 5 hour drive home, luckily I borrowed the right tools to tighten the upper connection enough to stay dry for the drive home. Fixing it more permanently this week. Good news was that the oil and coolant temps were good for what little time I was on track. Frustrating but the goal is always to be able to drive home which I did. UPDATE: It was a bad/pinched o-ring that was the cause of the leak.

Dec 2023 - new starter / engine mounts
Been a slow winter. Had to get a new battery which then killed the starter. I only go to my trustworthy indy mechanic. So the F was down for 2 months waiting for him to have time to installa new $$$tarter. New Denso starter (and new engine mounts while it was apart) and she is back on the road. Had to slum around in the AMG 😆.
The ice ruined the clearcoat on my wing. So need to get that redone along some new RE-71RS in time for the first track day fo the season.....Mid Ohio on 4/14 with about 5 other F owners.
