USBGSF16's build Thread
I got this car new on mid march and lexus newport only give me 1500 discount on it. Since i got the car, a idea came out, I want to build the best GSF ever. However, at that time there is not much mod for this car until now. I was waiting for the APEXI mid pipe since April and wait until mid September to get the first one in US. Also I past the novel cat back system in summer, I am so regret for that. Right now I had this car for half a year and put 10800 miles on it. I am trying to make a faster and better GSF possible but keep the stock look, more like those tuned European cars.
I got the TSB flash at Tustin Lexus, they are pretty friendly .It actually made a difference and I can feel it especially in low end torque, much better ECO mode drive, recommend every one to do it.
Those mods brings the car better and still easy to drive and maintenance as stock, RR Racing is truly a great company, brings us the solution of those shortcoming in our cars.
I am still waiting for the Local GSF guys to do the tune at RR racing, so they can flash my car, guys please come on do it!!!!I gonna do a before and after dyno to show the result of this tune in none header cars.
I see some people mod their wheels, guys our cars already come with 6K$ BBS forged wheels, change to those flow form wheels are downgrade!!! If really want reduce some weight and for better looks, why not stick with HRE,BBS and those great wheel, although those will cost 10K$ When I first installed the intake, there is a huge lag, however with the mid pipe and APEXI throttle controller, those lags went away.
Current Mods:
Q2mosh Ceramic coating
3M crystalline window tint
APEXI mid pipe
APEXI throtte controller
RR Racing USRS
HPS INTAKE TUBE
TOM'S STEERING WHEEL
AFE PRO S DRY DROP IN FILTER
RR Racing AOS
Mods on the way:
RR Racing ECU tune
Mod planed in future:
Toms racing aero kit
Toms racing axis back exhaust
PPE header
RB/FIGS break upgrade package
interior wrap nappa leather
ENGINE BAY WITH HPS INTAKE,MY RR RACING AOS IS ON THE WAY

The car really feels it pushes much harder and smooth. There is more torque and HP on mid range, littile bit louder on high rev and it is really exciting with that sound. APEXI got a good job on this product. They have it in stock, no drone, no con, it is prefect.
Got my Apexi mid pipe installed and sound clip is here, you can hear the before and after difference
