I know of two GURPS Shadowrun games. Neither was a direct conversion of the templates and rules; costing Essence in CP to then use that CP for cyberware was too fiddly.

Both used GURPS rules and GURPS cyberware and magic systems but with Shadowrun setting and terminology.

For Exalted you could use the rules that were developed for Amber; 1,000+ CP characters, all skills are Wildcards, stats start at 15, couple of other things. Again, don't convert the system, convert the setting. Ie, in GURPS terms that item won't give a +10 but a +4.
