man i think i just lost out on 650 buks... i have a 98 gs 400 and i just bought a jdm blitz aristo exhaust 2jzgte came of a 93-97 aristo...
now that i look i bought it outa excitement not even thinking is there a chance in hell that this might fit????.... come on someone make my day and tell me it will honestly fit... thanks ben

 

I can't tell you for sure but I am pretty positive it doesn't fit. Not to be a jerk but why did you order an exhaust for a different year AND model?

I would either try to sell the exhaust in the classifieds here (assuming they wont return it) or you could have a muffler shop hack it up and use whatever parts they can to make it fit though that will reduce the value of it when it comes time to sell as it won't be "original" anymore.

 

i wana laugh and i wana yell i didnt really read honestly... ya i am having problems reaching the dude to return it, it was used and grrr what can i say i think im screwed as soon as i do get it if the dude does not return it i prob will put it up for sale... any takers???

 

That sucks, I almost did that once, one of those late night eBay things, lol. Keep trying to contact him, possibly contact paypal and see if you can get ahold of him through them, try every avenue. If you paid paypal, or through Ebay you should be able to find his phone number. Hope it works out for you.

 

ya i did use paypal and it was through ebay.... is there a phone number on there imma look right now. i still feel kinda sick yup it was one of those late night ebay things to man....

 

i do know a dude that might be able to hack it up tho ill have to see what he says 2marraw but id rather sell it and hopefully get lucky and he'll return it...it was 649.99 with free shipping i asked for 600 buks back so hopefully he will be a hell of a guy... but on his add he said no return or whatever blah blah blah well c if he just sends me a tracking number for shipping...

 

In English maybe? That may help.

 

dude said he would return $600 out of $650 so that is kewl we will c when now

 

just hack it. won't be that much work, just around the cat and maybe some bumper fittiment? f 'it you will be the only one with a jdm exhaust.

 

I would just buy an exhaust made for the car. If you ever decide to sell it you can get some money back, a hacked up exhaust is never worth as much and the only advantage to it is if you really really want your exhaust a certain way.

BTW - If you decide to buy a Blitz exhaust for the 98-05 Gs it's only a axle back setup not a full catback. You will get a change in sound and looks but that's about it, not much if any performance gain. If you want to get performance as well go with a Tanabe, Greddy (I personally think Greddy's drone like crazy), etc....something that's from the catalytic converter all the way back, not just the rear sections.

Fwiw: The Tanabe Hyper sounds bad *** on a 400/430, not too loud but when you rev it up sounds like a 5.0 mustang (in a good way). Very deep sounding with a nice snarl, sounds nasty

Here is a bad clip of one I found on youtube (only thing I could find):

Tanabe Hyper Medallion

Here's a vid of my car with the Tanabe Touring Medallion (My personal favorite exhaust). Once the car passes you get a better sound of the exhaust, up to that it's all wastgate, lol. This clip is from a dead stop up to about 70mph.

 

y dont u just list it in the 1st gen classifieds and see if you can get your 650 for it????????

 

well the dude said he would return it i would rather just lose out on the fifty bucks and chalk it up as a loss no big deal... i want something that does performance as well as looking and sounding good thanks for all the help and input everyone!!!

 

i know which one u bought, i saw the same listing. the year was hard to find, (in the middle of a bunch of words) i almost bid it on. good luck man. the exhaust looked nice tho

 

you won't win an appeal with paypal because if the information was in the ad it's not the seller's responsibility. You should be able to sell it in the 1gen classifieds, i wouldn't expect to get your money back.

lesson learned i guess.

 

You will probably lose more than $50; with the cost and time wasted in shipping it back to him. Good luck, man.
