you are right, no one cares about such a "intelligent/informative" answer by you, which doesn't have anything to do about what andrew has asked. gj ktktsun. most people perchase GS430 over LS because GS is faster and more sporty designed, not that they can't afford LS.

andrew are you thinking to put on the LS500 NA kit ? where is v300 now ?

C-S LS55 if the headers will fit on the GS430...i am "ASsuming " that it is the same header and similar piping design for the whole exhaust , but just need some expert to clarify this for me. anyone??? =)

Hey Andrew, seems like no one here knows.
Like Wei said, V300 might know, he knows a lot of technical lexus stuff. PM him.

I think very few people anywhere actually know this answer. I posted pictures of the 90-97 manifolds and the 98-00 manifolds. The 98-00 pieces MAY be the same as on the 430s. That would be my guess. I am NOT impressed with this manifold but it is an improvement over the 1st gen part. The big problem is the manifolds are completely hidden behind heat shield. I was lucky enough to stop by my dealers shop when an engine was out of the car and took these pictures of the manifolds.

Here is the thread with multiple pictures
