In 2000, I believe, they changed the cat on the GSR which allowed it to use the same dimensioned exhaust as the ITR, whereas previously it was different.

What is interesting to me is the the ITR has always used an LS-dimensioned exhaust, so I am surprised that a '97 GSR exhaust would bolt up with no modifications. Of course, sgT surely knows better, though!

That may affect the B-PIPE but that is not the part in question.
He did say AXLE-BACK right?

oh, i didnt catch the axle back part of it . . . . even though if you think about it axle back is the full exhaust if you wanna be technical about it . our axles are up front . . . . but yes the b pipe is differenct, the "axle back " or rear section is the same

You mistake axle for driveshaft. NOT the same thing

from webster:

ax·le
n.
A supporting shaft or member on or with which a wheel or a set of wheels revolves

So by definition that would be the rear trailing arm.

so let me see if i am getting this right:
1. the cat on the GSR is shorter than the LS and ITR for b4 2000
2. the b-pipe is longer on the GSR for b4 2000
3. all the axle-back exhausts are the same length
4. i will not have a problem with a 97 GSR axle-back exhaust on my 2001 LS
.....correct me if i am wrong on any of those. thanx

Yep, the Axleback will bolt up.

In terms of catbacks...
-94-99 GSR
-94-01 LS, 97-01 ITR, 00-01 GSR are all the same.
