+1 on the seats. I'd settle for the newer GS/IS seats if they can installed. my seat has my *** groove permanently imprinted and could use a new pair of seats.

. the blog says "非常に操作しやすいです" (feels great) so I assume it's functional. seems like the stock up/down button works also.

Also those paddles are awesome! If the GS 400 could shift a bit quicker (E-Shift is kind of laggy) I would definitely invest in those. The only thing I have heard of to improve the shifting speed is upgrading the Valve Body, and I heard that poses an issue to shifting smoothness.

I dont think these will chane the speed of your shifts sir...kind of a aesthetic and hopefully functional mod but i dont think it will actually make it faster
hahaha
i STILL wonder why the gs430 never got e-shift thats so lame

Because Brian, Lexus was thinking about the future.
A GS3 can have an engine swap (GTE)
and produce more power than GS430.
So they were like, the slllllooooow GS430's will not need the feeling nor
the quicker shifts, might as well leave the e-shift out
.
Turbo is fun![Woohoo](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/woohoo.gif)

Sorry, have been swamped with the recent influx of work! I haven't really had time to post any updates in here.
I've been so busy that I received these seats a few weeks ago and they are still sitting in an empty room in the house lol.
Finally got the goods! I'll be installing these in my car soon. Custom bracket TIG welding and custom wiring this weekend.

You could also probably swap a IS350 steering wheel with paddle shifters into the GS4 as well..
