Dealers put LTuned items on. Not the factory. Parts range from Aero Kit (sides, grill) Suspension (springs, shocks) and ECU and LTuned emblems. Also, they made an exhaust.... Wheels too. 17" or optional 18" OZ.

svt5150 basically listed the mods. Unfortunately, L-Tuned as a division of TRD is no more. This also means their website is long gone but that website did not change for a long time. There were actually L-Tuned parts for the IS but it never made it to the website. I only learned about these from reading Lexus forums.

Series 1 is an appearance upgrade. It includes the grille, side skirts, and wheels. (It is arguable that the 18" wheels does more than appearance.) Series 2 contains the performance upgrade, including the shocks and springs, exhaust and steering ECU (in addition to everything in Series 1).

Why do you ask? You won't be able to buy the packages any longer since L-Tuned is defunct. You may be able to find the pieces here and there but I don't think anyone is selling the packages any longer.

Well my name might fool you I had a GS coming and the guy changed his mind at the last second i guess he got out of the finacl trap he was in.


I do own a 1992 SC400 and a 2003 LX470 Its time to get rid of the ugly 99 Maxima thats been siting in my drive way untouched for 8months now.

So I've been looking for a few L Tuned cars that people are reselling a did find a few just wanted to know some unanswered questions.

Thanks for your help neo

Did you see the GB going on for the GS?

You can get the kit and 17s cheap. The exhaust is a decent price too. The shocks and springs are holding value OK. You may find the ECU but I'm not sure. The emblems are gone.

If you get all the parts (minus the emblem), you basically have Series 2 (I know not the 18s) for a little more than 2k. Not bad at all. If you really like the L-Tuned stuff and are definitely getting the GS, this is a good opportunity to bet the L-Tuned parts.
