I need your advise on intake and some mod on GS430
I just want to do some mod for better exhaust sound and better look for my car. Please give me a sugesstion; max budget would be 4k to spend.
P.S These are random thing on my mind now.
1. Srt intake
if it fits in my car
http://www.lextasy.com/gs430_srt_intake_1268_prd1.htm
(is this intake is same one for GS400? )
2. Carson or Greddy Evo II cat back (whichever louder)
3. Used wheel from forum classfy section. (18's since I live in PA)
4. Some sway bar for stiffer ride or spring to lower car little bit.
I don't know much of lexus so please help me out. Thanks.

I'll respond briefly
1. Buy it from SRT direct, the site you chose isn't one of the best. Better yet buy it from one the vendors here at CL. The 400 SRT will not work on the 430.
2. From those 2 choices I don't which is louder, but I would go with the Carson. A lot of states have a law stating 93 dB is the legal limit.
3. Not sure what PA has to do with anything, but I'm running 19s' in the summer and the stock 16s' in the winter.
4. Sways with bushings, strut bars and coil overs will make a huge difference in handling and appearance.
Buy quality parts, there are several good names to choose from, search CL and see what others have used.

You should make this thread a poll, with the highest votes the number 1 mod you should do 1st.
I'd go for the catback system first, but I would choose the quieter of the two.

every one tells me that I gotta do the rims and spring first.
Yet the winters coming and I am planning to hold that part until spring.
I pretty much want stock looks and ride but just little bit lowered.
As performance wise, I want little bit upgraded in performance and louder exhaust sound- that's why I wants to go with Intake too.
Thanks for your opinions guys..
