I'm an LS430 owner,and I'll buy a set,if they'll fit a RHD car. OP hasn't gotten back to me with an answer on that yet.

Am still keen.

Why would they fit any different? Only difference is you drive on the wrong side of the car .

If you want to split hairs,YOU actually drive on the wrong side. It's a japanese car,and their market is RHD...

The difference is clearance between the steering shaft,and the manifold. The group buy headers were fabricated using a LHD car as a template,so there may not have been an allowance made for the steering being on the other side of the engine...
I have sent pics of my manifold and steering shaft arwa to the OP,and I believe he's looking into it.

i dunno...OP hasn't said maybe this is why we haven't heard much from him though as he's probably working (crosses fingers)
