Exhaust for GSR
I'm still driving my jillion mile '95 GSR 4door. To keep it on the road I'm going to have to replace or repair the exhaust that is on there.
I've seen the cat back systems on ebay for like $110 with the N1 style muffler. I have a few questions about it. Is that short pipe for installation on a 4dr vs 2dr? I've read one system is longer. What does this sound like? some of these systems are advertised as having a sliencer. What does it sound like with the silencer in place? Generally, I am into the not into that loud raspy sound!

So the exhaust arrived the other day. For $110 shipped. This thing looked pretty good. I used the cat-to-axle section and stuck with the old muffler.
On my car this is simply a generic muffler mounted up to the old axle-back pipe.
I will probably look for a stainless high flow "S" muffler that I will mount on the axle back part from the new kit. You can find mufflers like this for under $50 so you can get a nice exhaust without the rasp of the N1 style muffler. I would just cut off the N1 thing and mount up the other muffler.
It still sounds pretty cool as I have it set up-its quiet but still has a little bit of a deeper tone. Oh yeah this kit for a 4dr GSR comes with a 5-6" extension that mounts between the cat and the center section.

Apathy Kills
The N1-style exhausts -- either axle-back or full cat-back -- are among the loudest on the market.
Typically they run in 90 decibel range versus low 70s dB for a stock GSR exhaust.
If noise is an issue, I would stick with an OEM-equivalent exhaust.
Walker is one such manufacturer and you should have no problem finding them online.
