Should have been more specific with your post, but yes he probably used a tutorial on this forum or another to lower his GT-R.

This:



Or this:

Looking good.... for the pipes how about doing square tips maybe the USB tailpipe conversion on both sides? Reason I say square is I don't think the round really go with the body shape of the GT-R.

Was there an actual tut for the USB tailpipe?

Hmm I thought there was... let me look and see but honest there isn't much to it find a USB cable or in your case two of them.... cut any plastic away from the metal, take a pair of cutters and cut the metal shield away from the cable, plug the board out of it and bingo... normally when you cut them out you have a piece of metal with a hole in it that can be bent around the bumper and screwed in place so with a pair of pliers its easy to make something pretty decent.
