Why are you guys getting the intake for? Just for the sound? If it sounds like IS F butterfly intake opening at 3500 rpm I'll get it. Otherwise I see no point for the investment.

Hey the F-sports springs seem to be a pretty nice drop. Please take some photos when it settles more. I wonder if this will have any damage to the stock shocks?

It looks kind of similar to the eibach springs??




BTW: Next time, lets not shoot pics in B&W

In speaking to Lexus corp., they claim the intake does increase hp. This could mean anything obviously, but it's gotta be good for something!

Here's another of ISM-SKZM's IS with f-sport springs with ISP wheels and front lip. (excuse the lens flare... shooting in a bad spot where the sun was coming into the lens)

Pisay, what were you quoted to have the springs installed?
