For those who have one. Who did your installation? I have a performance shop here that says they can do it, but I'm thinking maybe I should take it to a transmission shop where they have more experience. Any problems that arose in the course of the install?

I had the dealer install the LSD at the same time. I'm sure it did void the warranty but I wanted to have the Lexus mechanic look around for any other damage [CPO covered] while he was doing the install. Then I could have them fix any problems prior to voiding my warranty for those portions of the car. And the mechanic/dealer backed the install if there were any problems.

DOES CARSON TOYOTA HAVE THE T/C AND LSD?
I am thinking of installing the T/C and the LSD in my 99 GS4, and I would like to know what a good price for the parts would be. Since I am in California, shipping will not be a problem. I intend to install both items myself.
Everyone says that acceleration will be markedly increased, making it easier to hit the limiter between shifts. I know gas mileage will be worse, but I am wondering how much it will decrease. If anyone can give me an idea, I would be appreciative. Hopefully these gasoline proces will go down somewhat, but it is still manageable...so far! I still love my car, and will not give it up just for poor gas mileage.
Thanks

carson toyota has both, the tc is about 900 i think and the lsd (assume supra one) would be as high as 1350 to 1400, not cheap. as usual, very damn heavy stuff
gas mileage, i would say decrease by about 4-5mpg? and yes, i have driven one with them before, the accel is insane for the car

i could have mixed it up. i know the one for gs300 is 100 bucks more than the one for gs4, maybe 900 was for gs3
