Hey Manaray,

I'd also like some more information on price and some pics if your friend has them available.

And if he has a few more "laying around".....

Well I called today and he wasn't in so I left a message...how many people would be interested in purchasing these? Since they're universal, they'll need to be welded on by a exhaust shop (nothing hard really)...

If they work for a first gen (1993) I'd be interested.

Ok, so far TinyGS, Enginyr, Minh (Yes, they will work.)

GSWill - These are most likely made of Stainless Steel...and I'm sure you can get them in high polish or brushed. I called him today again and found out he was outta town...so I'll let you guys know what's up when I find some information.

As for the sound level, judging by the looks of it, it looks LOUD. BUT, few things can be changed to alter the sound level. A smaller internal pipe with baffled tip would silence it. A "quiet" version may not look exactly the same but it'll have a very similiar look...some people might like it better...

I'm planning on rolling the tip in a little and buffing the stainless to a high shine.

Thanks for the info Manaray..... Can you post a phone # that I can use to call your contact for specific questions? Does he know that the muffler/tips were after are the EXACT ones from the pic? Im planning on cutting off the Greddy canister but leaving the Greddy H-pipe in tact...... Im just tired of the HUGE canisters/tips...(I want a smaller canister w/big oval tip) I loved it before, but I think it detracts from my car and is more suited for a HIGH hp Supra, etc....... Thanks, Tiny

Will I be gaining a few HP or is it cosmetic only? Thanks.

exhaust gains are usually very minimal...usually, you loose a lot of bottom end torque...it would be mostly cosmetic unless you plan of removing your cats, upping the pipe diameter, etc., etc...

I know sebring makes that style too but it's large, 135 mm by 75 mm.
I am also not sure if they make it for the GS.
