I didn't even realize the pics went missing. I'll take some new ones when the winter is over and upload them again. What specifically do you want to see? Did you get a chance to watch the video linked in my signature below? It has a short clip of the exhaust on a track I went to after the repair.
I did listen and the GS sounds great.. I just wanted to see the X-pipe configuration etc. I saw the link to X-pipe which is helpful.. Don't we have 2.25 piping from the cats back to rear? Anyway, it sounds amazing.. I'm looking for a little more deep tones from the exhaust, i have 3rd muffler delete into high flow cats into Bltiz nur spec mufflers.. I'm thinking of maybe just adding the X-pipe and deleting the resonators. What do think?

An end of an era and an amazing 18 year "ride" for the GS. I put up my car for sale last year when I bought a Tesla Model S ( https://www.clublexus.com/forums/car...t-a-tesla.html ) , but couldn't find a buyer who shared our enthusiasm. The car sat in my garage on a battery maintainer for a year.

I finally had to let the car go today as a very young enthusiast (in his twenties) made me an offer I couldn't refuse.

Here is a video as the car leaves my driveway for the last time. I was very sad to see it go, but I had no choice as I didn't have the space any more to keep the car.

If you enjoy a rumbling V8 exhaust, turn up the volume on your phone or computer as I know you'll enjoy the sound.

Interesting to see how the long and entertaining story finally ends. Rare that this didn't end in a part-out.
Thanks for the follow-up Hameed.

Thanks! You're right, it almost did end in a part out when I couldn't sell it, but my laziness kept me from doing that. I got offers of OEM parts in exchange for the Supra Differential, the headlights, the StopTech BBK, the wheels etc. I'm glad I didn't part it out though as it would have been even harder to sell.
