Hi Guys,

Does anyone have any pictures or links to pictures with the HKS Hiper exhaust installed on the GS? I only found a small one on the HKS website. Any experiences in terms of sound, performance etc? Thanks for any info.

I have the HKS Hiper Exhaust on my 2000 GS400. I can get some pics tomorrow and post them. The sound is very deep and non obtrusive. My friend also has it on his GS300 and its just a little bit louder but not much. The exhaust emits a more of a deeper tone than you would expect from a hiper, which is a good thing. As for preformance, I have not dynoed it with the exhaust on but I did notice better mid-range and top end.

Thanks! I look forward to the pics! I was worried the Hiper would not be deep in sound! I like the V8 to sound rich and deep and not the mosquito buzzing noise of the 4-bangers!

Here is one picture that I have with a 01 GS430 with the HKS hiper exhaust. I will have another one with it on my 00 GS400 later. I also have a sound file of it too, reply back with an email address and I will forward it to you.

Those Hipers should be 120mm right? Both my N1s and Sasha's P/Es are 115 I think. Looks even bigger than mine!!

Yes, the Hipers do have a 120mm tip. I will get side view and angle shots by tomorrow and post there up here also. I have mail the ones that requested the wav file. I will try to attach it here too.

gs4will- are you referring to the 2001 tail lights? If you are the answer is no. I just did mine Sunday and it was easssssssssy. Took me 45 min. cause i didn't know what i was doing. If i were to do it again i could do it in 15 min.

If you need any help just yell and i will help .
