Thank you to B2Design for the Tanabe's, Eibachs and Ichiba spacers! Thank you member spine911 for sending out the Invidia's in record time!

Just spoke in detail with my exhaust installer. Apart from the O2 bungs that had to be relocated, apparently, the flanges that meet up to the exhaust manifolds on the GS460 are slightly aligned differently to the V6 models.

He literally cut off the flanges of the mid pipes, aligned them to the manifolds, teg welded them.. and then took the pipes off and welded them permanently. So basically, the end flanges of the Invidia mid pipes need to be slightly turned anti-clockwise ( clockwise for passenger side ) to line up with the V8 manifold flanges.

Nothing a good exhaust shop can't fix!

Just thought I should let you guys know!
