Wow , congrats mate . It is a beast , interior is just so much better than the ISF . How do you like it after 2 months ?

it is Nick from Mel ( guy who bought the Joe Z off you :D) 

the problem with Xforce is it seems to take foverer for them to restock . I have enquiried three time and each time they gave me diffirent estimated time for new stock ( lastest updated is August or Sep ) : D 

Yeah , i guess i will wait for for supercharged as well . 

Anyway guy, i am tring to source an exhaust for my F however cant really find anything local . Anyone have spare one up for sale ?

thanks

I will go for Exhaust/header/intake route first as it is proven and enhanced the v8 sound .

anyone here have had PPE/ JoeZ or other exhaust setup ? If yes , can you share some experiences ? 

Is there any supplier here can get PPE header or i have to import it myself from State .

TIA,

Nick

I have had my F for over a month now and absolutely love it . Coming from mostly turbo car in the past ( wrx , megane rs , A45 ) this thing is completely diffirent , it is quite and relax for cruising and can be an animal when you want it and 1 thing i really appreciate is the built quality , it feels solid like a tank ( my A45 is ratteling and dealer couldnt fix it properly after 3 times ) .

Just a few quick shots today, i am planning an Exhaust and intake + Tune soon :D ( just can't get enough of its V8 sound )

I agree, i thought it would be the typical v8 holden/ford exhaust note but its got that raspy high pitch v8 note like a deep R35, C63 etc if that makes sense.  Havent heard mine in motion from the outside but damn from the inside, 1 week on and still loving it :-)

BLK ISF , just wondering what is your thought after few week with it, any drone on highway cruise ? I am still waitting for new stock , i am running out of patience here : )) 

Cool, look like you had an great day mate. Just wondering what app is it ?

Cheers,

Nick

As you guys might know , ECU tuning has been available for ISF for 2-3 months now and recently OBD  tuning was released so just wondering has anyone tried it ?

i am keen to get ECU tuned soon after the exhaust .

Nick

BLK ISF thanks for taking your time to write up a great review mate , i am sure you are over the moon with it :D .

i am going for Xforce as well however  have to wait 4-6 weeks for new stock coming in  : ( 

Based on Vaku video , i am going for non Varex system first to see how it goes .

PeterKay : just wondering is K&N intake just for sound ? I heard it seems to be suffered heat soak , isnt it ? 

TIA guys 

I have just got one last month so it might helpful , mine is 2012 late built - 2013 registered ( MY13 with updated bluetooth streaming music function ) .

i paid a tad over 60K for it ( car is like new condition, 30K on the clock , 1 mature owener with full service history , 1+ year factory warranty )  so it might give you an idea of price wise . 

In my experience , this sort of car takes time to find the right one so dont rush it . Make sure you have it checked at Lexus dealer before making a decision.

After 3 weeks of ownership , i glad that i pulled the trigger as it is totally awesome :)

well, I got it.
so far I am very impressed - yes its obviously louder than stock but I have not noticed any drone at cruising speeds as mentioned by the guys, will give it a proper test tonight or tomorrow and will chuck up some dashcam vids!

thanks to Peter for the assistance / phone calls! appreciate it mate.

 

 

Thanks mate  for your clip, it made up my mind now and i will pull a trigger on the system this week. Just wondering where did you get yours from ? I found 1 on on ebay for $1350 ( seems like a decent price ) . 

Anyone here got K&N intake , i would like to get one ( mostly for more V8 sound into the cabin as i just cant get enough of it ) , and on Clublexus : ECU tuning is availble now and seems like get very good result . Not sure if any tuners here can do somehting similar ?

cheers,

Nick

Hi guys ,

Finally pulled the trigger on a 2012 ISF  mercury grey with 30Kms  for a tad over $60K .

I was looking  for quite a while and finally found this one ( 1 mature owner and car is in almost brand new condition ) . 

I firstly looked at 08-09 model as they are more affordable ( $45-50K mark) however the ride is too firm and not much out there in the condition that i want so decided to go for 12 model ( as far as i know , all previous issues has been addressed in this model year )

Thank you guys for a lot of useful infos here and glad i found the forum before making decision . 

I am looking for an exhaust upgrage soon so any recommendations from experts here would be much appreciated.

TIA,

Nick
