Default Limp Mode gs300 1999

I am wondering if i should take it to dealer or just do it myself. (accelerator position sensor).
Lets shoot some info. My 1999 Lexus gs300 goes into limp mode after i drive it for a couple minutes for example.... The check engine light, VSC and VSC off come on when the (limp mode) starts. then i press on the gas and it doesn't accelerate or rev untill i pust to the floor and even then, it only goes to 2000 r.p.m.s.( not fast) about 5 mph.

So is it the accelerator position sensor, Accellerator Pedal sensor, Throttle position sensor, o2 sensor or cracked intake hose?????
