Absolutely buddy, count me in! Are my manifolds the same as the 4.3 ones? What about O2 sensors if decatted?

Lots of questions, I am still learning lexus language.

Im sure they are but I will double check with Darrel for you. I think the main difference, unless I am wrong, is our headers are like the ISx50 and all one piece so we would either need to source a cat (not that big of a deal) "or" get long tube headers. Ill research more and post back.

OK, for me it's not a legal issue. We do not have smog tests here. My M5 is decatted completely. Are there any O2 simulators out there for our cars to not throw a fault?

Bad news buddy!

These are a NO go for the 3gen. They have to make us Long Tube or once piece with cats attached. We dont have the same set up as the 2gen just like I thought.

So will have to see if PPE wants to provide the 3gen with a specific header and run a GB.

I think we should qualify for the 15% If we get atleast 9 people being that alot of the sc 400/430 guys couldn't get in because fitment issues we are not sure about I think that took a big chunk out the group come on ppe work with us 9 + 15% off

while i do agree that we might lose alot of the group since we cant yet confirm fitment on the sc400/sc430 we have to GET to 9 though before we can get him to work something else out LOL.

OP i will be taking that picture you asked me about IF i pick up the car tonight and emailing it to you l8r tonight

I've been eyeballing this thread for a while but I can't seem to jump on the deal. I guess most people aren't buying in because they don't think it'll reach 20+ buyers, especially since the SC guys can't get in on it yet. There are a hell lot more SC400/430 on the road than GS/LS. The gap between 10% and 15% is just more than what people were anticipating.

Yeah maybe the next run cause the kids difinately won't understand lol and that sc gap was really a big chunk without them 19 is impossible.

I'm waiting for the go ahead to buy for my SC430. I sent them several pics of the SC430s headers and was told they are going to a Lexus dealership today to verify the fitment. Hopefully it will be good news.

good news

wonder if OP would extend this GB for a while longer if they do fit the SC's....would help both sides out.
