Everything works as it did from Factory. Its a 4.3L V8, and sounds and goes great.This car has served us very well since 2011, and we have only put on 20k kms on it since. It stays in the garage, my wife has an Echo to drive to work and I have an old landcruiser for daily duties. This car was bought for weekends. It has been in the garage 3 weeks untouched, hence why we need to sell. This car, as you know was 140k brand new, and presents excellent value. It will be sad to see it go but we need to pay off some debts :(

DO NOT PUT E85 in your GS. Stick to Prmium.
E85 needs a different tune, bigger fuel pumps and injectors.

Guys, I have my stock shocks sitting in my garage with 40,000kms.
I can get you used ones from Japan, or new coilovers (Which I put in mine). This allows height and damper adjustment.
Its the cheapest option. I run Tanabe coilovers, which is Japan made.

hard to find bits for our GS, but exhaust there are a few options in Japan and America. Intake not so much, I did find an awesome one in Japan, its CF and I doubt will be cheap.
My email is shane AT gorillaindustries.com.au email me some details of your car. We do mainly Toyota and Lexus parts

Mine seemed fine, even when I had some 19" wheels, its mainly the low profile tyres that will do it man.

That sux hairy balls!! Goodluck mate!

I'd forget about recovering the car and be putting serious pressure on the insurance company to pay up on a service that you were paying for.
A friend of mine lost his EVO9 the same way a few years back..Insurance paid him out

For me, I have always been a Toyota guy, I dont really know why, but back in school days for some reason, there was a Lexus Brochure in th Library (I use to always just go to the car sections in the Library) and it was showcasing the Lexus LS400. I just loved all its features. I remember the Door mirrors dimmed headlighst behind you, or the Car phone in the center arm rest in the back. I remember it was $152k back then (90's) and thought I would never own one but I can dream.
When I finished school, my first car was a 1975 RA23 Celica, then I went to an EP82 Starlet GT, then the list just grew, Supras, Cressidas, Coronas, and then in 2002 I bought a 99 model IS200! I eventually put a 1JZGTE in it as I wanted more power lol (that was a very costly experience). Ive had 3 MR2a, 4 Supras (I just got a soarer 1JZ VVTi 2 days ago too!), 2 Landcruisers, 2 Coronas, 2 Cressidas, Camry, Echo, 2 Starlets, the list never ends haha..The main thing with the list is reliability and build quality. In all those cars, knock on wood ive never had a major issue (Probably clutch letting go in one starlet, or a fire in an MR2 from a mechanics error!)
So it was time to get a family car, at first we thought the RX350, but I thought they are too popular, then the wife said an IS250, but same, popular and very tight in the back for a baby. So I went left field for a GS430, Its different, it has every option under the sun, has power, reliable, and even isnt too bad on fuel for a V8.

Ok..the Finale..the LFA! The Creme De La Creme!The lines, The sound, The craftmanship!!Sitting Next to little brother and now outdated ISF!The White does it for me! Its the colour Id get!Then they got the keys and popped the CF BonnetAnd this is where the party starts!Then the driver door, which reveals the Carbon Body!Then I jumped in...and thats when I stopped taking pics :P

Next up is the all new IS350 F-Sport. You know, I wasnt a fan of this car, but after seeing it in real life, in this awesome colour, I love it! One thing I really hate is the light washers up front (I didnt grab a pic) but all of them had it.Inside is a VERY nice place to be in, and that LFA style Dash!FINALLY!! Lexus have run out of the 80/90's Digital clock parts bin and gone more classy analogue!! WhoooThe snake is back!The GS is nice too, I didnt check it out too much, but If only it was V8 (Kevlin got me...I wouldnt go for a 250 :P)Peanut Butter Leather with Black leather dash, perfectThe NEW ES350 was there, and to be honest, was VERY nice! This was an awesome feature! After having a newborn, last week I went searching for those shades for the GS, and the ones I got are too big. This is perfect!

OK...Inside the showroom. Lexus have really re-designed their cars, and the quality is so good.Ill start with the First thing that greeted me as I walked in...an SV6 Aurion Sportivo...I mean the New Lexus LS460!! I HONESTLY thought it was an Aurion, especially with those wheels...The Interior is simple but elegantRear seats is lounge like as expectedQuality StitchingLexus have seem to have moved on from Wood, Carbon, Granite like finishes, to more snake skin!!The rear lights mimick the "L" badgeThe DRL's are one piece, so no breaks in the light.It is a beautiful car, BUT It just doesn't look as prestige as it should from the outside.Tupperware PARTYYIts big and cool enough o get all the boys cruising down George Street!

Sweet set of TTE (Toyota Team Europe) Borbet wheels.
They were made by Borbet (Germany) for Toyota. They are a perfect for Soarers & Aristo - They measure:
5 x 114.3
18 x 8.5 +40 with 245/30/18 Dunlop Lemans (5mm Tread left)
18 x 10 +46 with 275//35/18 Dunlop Lemans (5mm Tread Left).
Structurally good, but have some guttering.
All for $1350!!
Here they are on my Soarer. Soarer is on coilovers, and the guards arn't rolled, and they do not scrub at all
