i may be completely wrong here so don't hold me to anything... i don't know much about the difference between the us-spec GS and the aristo but if it is just the exhaust, i dont see why it wouldn't fit... but the rear bumper may be slightly different in size between the GS and the aristo so you might want to make sure that the width of the two rears are the same... but otherwise... i think they should fit

just as long as you don't buy one that is for a V300, you won't gain any kind of RWHP due to the back pressure, but if your Turbo or Supercharged, then yep, you'll gain some

Yes you want it for the JZS161 or JZS160 which is the nonturbo version.

Ya I want the turbo version for sure. I have a Fujitsubo Legalis R lined up for 1299.00 CAD 1070 US, shipped. Although I think it's a bit overpriced.

Err...if your car is non-turboed, a 161 exhaust system is the last thing you want. You will in fact lose power if you install a jdm exhaust system meant for the jzs161. My RSR system for example has a full 3.5" straight through pipe from the 1st cat down. If you install this on your car, I can guarantee that you will lose just about all your low end torque.

The exhaust is 3", personally I dont see the problem, it is a v8 after all. It displaces more air than a stock 3.0 turbo aristo. Plus there is too much restriction prior to the cat back to make any real difference in gains or losses.

Time to bump this old thread. The JZ161 Aristo exhaust will not fit a US spec GS300, 400 or 430. The flange is 1/4inch off of lining up with both holes. Just confirmed this with both Toms and TRD axle backs.

Doesn't sound right. People use JDM exhaust systems all the time. It's incredibly common.

From what I have found online from other Toms and TRDs for sale, both Toms and TRD use their own mid pipes which is probably why the axleback doesn't work with the factory mids. I had a C-One exhaust before and that bolted up perfectly but they never made anything but axleback for the Aristo.
