Lousy Memorial Day weather. '04 w/ 105k, did the timing belt and spark plugs. Should last a lifetime. I'm sure I won't own it for another 9 years.

Default Magnaflow Muffler
Today I had my Magnaflow put in and don't really like it. It's too loud when commute driving, I haven't taken it on the freeway yet, thats tomorrow. My goodness what am i to do. It sounds like my muffler fell off behind me.

Problem solved with great results. The sound is barely noticeable inside but you can feel a deep growl when you punch it.

Thanks!
i actually like the kit, the front can be cleaned up a bit....how much does it cost?

It's way too involved for my tastes.It's prob a good $2,500 to $3K not including Duty port taxes and about $400 shipping.

I still have my WALD kit for sale . Never felt any other kit really was as nice. Very simple but flows with the cars design. That one does not. The RX is not a Range Rover. Just my feelings.

Love the look!





Nice Draco! Did yours come without the roof rack or did you remove it?

Many of us have removed our roof racks using a kit available from Sewell:

Yes, I have seen that, I will do that later once I finish my sound system install. I was just wondering if customers in Australia could get the RX without the roof racks straight from factory.

Gidovs, what paint did you use? Silver? Not chrome silver?

This is a sneek peak of my sound system based on an iPad Mini in a custom double din kit, interacting with a Sony head unit.

I really wish I could have gotten the headlights done while I has my RX. Great job.
