Just fill in one side of your stock one, get a junk donor stock bumper and a shop could cut a piece and fill it...

Always liked the idea of factory fake-doubles converted to a nice big single. Like on RX8s and s2000s. Maybe you could just fiberglass over an existing bumper exhaust cutout.

Pretty much everything has been done somewhere. 5 seconds of googling shows the Max Orido aristo is single exit.

I'm sure they are other examples but I don't feel like looking.

so you wanna do a 2JZGTE swap on a gs430 or you already did? cause if you have the brains to do that swap on a gs430 (just a tad more work than on a gs300) how come you need help figuring this out?

ALSO i have said it a million times none of you new guys are the first to do ANYTHING to a gs

Riiiiiight... You know, plenty of "real" imports had dual exhausts. Nissan Z32 Fairlady ring a bell?

OP, just as Sakataj said it'd be easier and cheaper to just do it yourself. Find a muffler you like and just have a muffler shop fab up the piping. Or if you want that real JDM ish, find one on Yahoo Auctions Japan and have it imported.

Lol swaps already done my dude

And I'm just hunting for a example not saying I can't do it just seeing what's out there first

I can do this with no problems in my driveway but I just needed some insight before I get started like is the a rear bumper with the delete already I would rather buy then show off my wonderful auto body skills
