Coming from a sc300 part of the forum.
I just picked up a clean blk/blk gs430 with 170k miles yesterday night. Timing belt service was done about 1k miles ago also new LCAs, motor mounts. Fully loaded with navi. Paint is 9/10 Interior is about 8.5/10
Just a few common things such as door actuators, trunk latch doesnt work.
A few "mods" to do list
DIY chrome grill
FX-R retrofit
Coils
Full face wheels.
LED tails
Should be good enough for now.

Thanks, I have a question regarding the key situation...
So i only received one key unfortunately it was not the key with fob. I believe its a valet key. It starts the car, opens the trunk, but does no unlock the glove box/ trunk button lock. I heard that if the security stays on then its not a master key, mine turned off but not instantly does that mean i have a Valet key?

I plan on ordering the key from Sewell which turns out to be $160 shipped to me, but how much would it cost to program / reflash the ecu?

Security light should go out when a working key is placed in the ignition cylinder, valet or master. Your key is a valet if it does not open the glovebox and trunk lock button.
