Lexus of Perth uses Mobil 1 fully synthetic 5W-30.

There's someone in Victoria running the RR supercharger kit on their RC F, but they also had to swap to a USDM ECU.

I've been telling folks in Facebook groups to replace these cabin vents for a while, but others keep insisting on replacing or removing the secondary cats.  These flaps are cheap to replace, certainly compared to getting cats removed.

Another option is TOM'S Racing "Performer" brake pads

Have you guys tried these in the Tom's demo car yet?

A shame he sold the car - no more IS F vids from this guy.

I recently got a new start button via the guy on Club Lexus who organised a group-buy of custom start buttons a few years back.  Ended up costing a bit more than the original group-buy price at US$169.99 shipped, but I'm happy enough with it - seems to suit the IS F better than the TRD or Tom's buttons IMO.

What part numbers did you end up with? Their web-page doesn't list Is models.

I can't find my invoice to give you the part number.  What I did though was bring in my OEM struts and they matched them up as best they could.  The OEM struts had no markings on them so it was a bit of trial-and-error to set the correct amount of gas.  I think the guy lost a bit of patience by the end, as he overshot and the force required to close the boot is a bit high - at least there's zero chance of it accidentally closing on me.  I had to secure one end of the struts with an E-clip.  Ended up costing me $77 for the struts, plus a pack of E-clips from Bunnings.  Lexus of Perth wanted over $150 to re-gas the OEM struts.

For $60, I reckon Danny's used IS 350 struts are a good hassle-free option.

I had my bonnet and boot struts replaced at my local McNaughtans (aka Struts Australia).  I pulled off my old ones and they matched some up for me.
