I had the TransGo shift kit in my LS for a little while before I swapped to a manual. You can get it through summitracing for under $100. If you have never done any type of transmission work, I highly suggest you getting a shop to install this kit. I also highly recommend you getting a transmission cooler too.
I think I have a wright up somewhere on here, but like PD ^^^^^ said, the SC forum has more info on it.

A650E Shift kit
Has anyone had a 'proper' shift kit from ITP or anyone else ? Seriously thinking of doing one on my LS but would really like to talk to someone who's had one done already... Or if anyone knows anything about them ?....

Nope... I understand to get anything like what I'm after I need a stage 1 shift kit from ITP... I hate the 'laziness' of the A650.... I know thats what its designed to do but for motorheads like me Id love to 'liven' the tranny up... bump up the line pressure a bit and give the transmission some bite... not all this wishy washy gear changes.... ...... Havent got the $$ at present but its the next mod i'll get done.... About $1,000AUD including about $200 freight.... for me, well worth it....

if you want to cure the laziness you could look at the toyomoto style shift rod setup the IS300 guys use, it should work just fine in the LS400 98+. They are ~1-200 on ebay these days.

They are basically accumulator shims. If you're adventurous you can make your own set with the specs given, or buy a set from ebay. ~$130.
The search terms you want are "toyomoto shift kit" for the is300.
