Yes good point. I think I will ask again as I spoke to them about a year ago so things might have changed. Still, it could be a lot different for ISF vs RCF. Doable, I just dont fancy swapping my ECU worries of other potential side effects.... I could come back to it the next morning and find the steering wheel on the other side! lol

Double check the OBD mapping they offer too as I was told I would need to purchase a US ECU from them in order for their tune to work. They have not attempted to crack EU ECU's - but perhaps they have for ISF... If this is no longer true and I am talking absolute flannel, I would be interested (if possible) in purchasing their RCF remote tune from them.

I'm down. Hopefully I am free on whichever Sat we choose 🙂

Up for that. Boys will always be boys....

Lovely. Definitely sounds "nastier" than the Invidia (in a good way), bet you have been out turning heads all afternoon!? 😄

I would volunteer to organise, but being from Kent I am less familiar with decent locations in Hampshire Surrey etc so....

Of course, I will report back. Going Brands on Monday evening. Fingers and toes crossed, but not hopeful.

Certainly suits me. I wouldn't want it on my doorstep anyway as I wont get to drive the car then 😄

Sounds angry love it! Are you going to get Db tested? I am going to shoot down to Brands Hatch next week to get MSVT to test my car with the Invidia on it. Rather than getting black flagged and wasting money spent, they said I can get tested at my local track and then know whether to book or not. Fingers crossed.

I believe so. I saw a base model RC at Lexus Sidcup and they seemed to have the old 4 pots from the IS350 / GS450 on them so..... he has just painted them obvs.

Congratulations and welcome to the club - you will enjoy the "What is that" looks you are about to get a lot 🙂 I think we are well overdue a South of England meet aren't we? Certainly enough of us...

Ah right yes that’s it, most donuts are a mesh carbon composite type thing. Itll all go on with OEM hardware by the sounds of it 👍🏼

Is that not a donut then no? If not, my bad - it is for the Invidia sorry.

I believe there are donut gaskets in the OEM coupling. When I had a garage fit mine, I didn't give them gaskets and neither did they mention them so likely can be reused. Get yourself some wax onto the carbon tips, will help keep them clean from baked on fumes. The stainless is easy to clean.

Anyone after hard to get parts for their GSF, this salvage shop on ebay seems to have dismantled one [insert sad face] https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/scbcarparts?_trksid=p2047675.m3561.l2563

Agreed it really is much lighter than OEM

That's a good price! Yes QS is "Lexus approved" as such. Before I fitted it I called the warrant company who confirmed warranty unaffected just that rear section of the exhaust is no longer included and if a fault was found to be caused by the aftermarket part, subsequent repairs and parts would not be covered. But that is standard T&Cs anyway. I haven't made the same enquiries with the Invidia as I think that last bit in the standard T&C's will always be an issue. But I am aware of a fellow member having Lexus fit the Invidia for him so.....

Awesome. Did you go brand new? The Invidia is cheaper, but they are almost impossible to get (cost effectively) in the UK.

Sounds good to me. Was gutted to miss JapFest so will be on this one for sure!

Have you any pics? What is the Lexus RRP?

Hi all, Back in the Summer of 2020 I was on the lookout for a USB ISF and/or RCF. I remember calling a private seller about an ISF at 9am on a Sunday only to be told that it was already sold after being listed for just 12hrs. He said he had like 15 phone calls and took a deposit over the phone without any viewings, likely because he sold it for just £16,500 https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202206066498517?sort=datedesc&radius=1501&make=LEXUS&advertising-location=at_cars&onesearchad=Used&onesearchad=Nearly New&onesearchad=New&postcode=br51dq&model=IS F&page=1 Was this the one that got away? Now with Lexus approved warranty for an extra £9k and only about 5,000 miles on it since Summer 2020!? Great to see these cars holding strong... and rightly so.

Ah, there’s me thinking he would’nt have 2x identical Siebon’s, must have the OEM CF one too 😂

Please let me know if you ever wanna sell the OEM look Seibon 👍🏼

Had the Invidia fitted yesterday and it looks great. I’m so glad I decided to paint the rear face of the mufflers black. Looks and feels OEM but sounds so much better, as it always should have 👌🏼
