HKS 2001-2003 Lexus IS300 3.0 Rear Section Hi-Power Exhaust
The HKS Hi-Power Rear Section Exhaust system replaces the factory rear exhaust on 2001-2003 Lexus IS300 models with a high-flow muffler and piping for a deeper, more aggressive exhaust note. Crafted from premium SUS304 stainless steel, this rear section bolts directly to the stock catalytic converter pipe, improving exhaust scavenging and throttle response without drone. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking authentic JDM sound and style on their 2JZ-GE powered IS300.
