Very interesting Hennie

A bit pricey though hey

But I guess if you've got the $'s to buy a Lexus Motor in the first place then you've got the $'s to make the mod :wink:

Seems like the Lexus Motor fan Club is taking off hey 8)

Thanks for the post :wink:

Over here they range from about R 6500 to R8000, depending on where you buy them, their condition and if you want the gearbox with or not.

Cheaper than a Korean 4Y... :twisted:
