Love it!

That is the best sound I've heard in quite a while!!!

And that's coming out of a 1UZFE!

Nice. Dude needs to keep both hands on the wheel though.

Love the "vintage" Grant steering wheel in the Lexus.

If you could put that sound in a can and sell it at the local parts store you would never have to work again.

Hell pipe it to my stereo with it synked to the rpms and I would be happy. (less tickets that way)

Sounds a lot like old Chevy truck that lost the exhaust.

Sounds a lot different than I was expecting.

This. I was less than impressed.

I'm with these guys.

Not necessarily a bad thing?

I wonder what it feels like. That sound has got to make things vibrate in places you did not know you have.

Yup, that's a crossplane V8 running wide open with open headers. Do tell me more about converting a LS400 to manual though.

Anybody else concerned they were doing at least 100mph in a populated area with other cars on the road?

Kewl!

Fits with the steering wheel choice.

Im more interested in the manual swap than the sound.

In reply to JacktheRiffer:

I did a little looking into it, you need a custom adapter plate and flywheel to use a supra trans, conversion parts work out to at least $1000. Looks like P71 is still the way to go if you want a late model RWD land yacht with a easy manual swap.
