Quick question.. ["F" meaning and JoeZ exhaust]
So what does the F stand for in ISF.... Fast? Frugal? Freak?
I know keep asking about this, but any JOE Z exhaust holders be hesitant to pull up to their doctors practice with their rumbling exhaust? I've added the exhaust and the Tanabe intake to "my shopping cart" everyday now for a week.... Just haven't been able to quite pull the trigger.

I've always heard about the whole Fuji Speedway thing. But I also heard from a credible source that F was an internal designation for sports car projects, starting with the Supra.

"The “F” designation, according to Toyota, does not stand for the rumored “Fast,” but for Toyota’s internal project “Circle F” — for “flagship” — project that evolved into Toyota’s Lexus Division. The “F” Code has since been reserved for Lexus vehicles which go beyond their standard development processes."

pull the trigger!!
its not that loud... under normal driving i can gas it just enough that u cant even hear the exhaust (really convenient when driving past a cop) AND when ur up for more spirited driving the BEAST comes alive!!
The car's already fast as it is... but if you want more grunt behind that power i highly suggest the JOEZ.

i live in canada and just went to a local lexus specialist... he charged me about a $100 to install..
you could prob do it yourself but highly don't recommend it. a hoist is really convenient when putting the rubber hangers back on and lining up the exhaust.. And another important thing make sure whoever does the install they have the O2 sensor socket to remove the sensor. If you read some of the other JOEZ related threads it will state to make sure the tech doesnt twist the wires of the O2 sensor as this could throw a cel. the tool looks something like this.
