RMMGS4 did his pedals, refer to the following thread. He may have redone the footrest already, too. I know those pedals make him drive faster.

I have got Levoc pedals (looks great) but am seriously looking into buying the IS300 pedals (these would cost about $200 shipped from Lexus-Parts.com for the gas, brake and dead pedals).

I thought Rominl and RMMGS4 were looking into the fitment issues (they already stated that the Brake pedal is a perfect fit)...would be interested in what they have found out to-date.

I think they are still working on it. It does require quite a bit of R & D though....

It's on the to do list. There have been some projects that have taken higher priority. Sorry. Be patient.

I have pedals on my car, but I have no idea what brand they are...they were on the car when I bought it. Be careful though, my pedals are actually either larger, or placed slightly different, becuase it is real easy to go to hit the brake....and accidently catch the outer edge of the gas pedal. Obviously this can be real dangerous, and has been when I had other people driving the car for the first time. Nothing like power braking when you dont mean to do it.

most aftermarket racing pedals make the pedals closer (ie. brake and gas is like 1-1.5in have apart) for faster response. i had trouble at first scratched up my dress shoes too, but after awhile got use to driving with them

Gee I wonder ?

There are atleast two people I know of on this forum who own both. They probably would be a good source to figure out this IS to GS Pedal conversion.


I hear they need some more time, since the holidays have been hectic for both of them, so please be patient.
