Thanks for catching my mis-type. Edited my post, It was 12” -> 16”.
Yes, the 16” is significantly louder than stock when you get on it. Flooring it in an underpass or tunnel it’s nice and rowdy, in a gentlemanly sort of way. At idle there is a...
I love it. Just enough growl that you can feel and need the engine and acceleration but it’s not loud like a pick up truck.
I’ll shoot an updated video next week when I put on my summer tires and rims.
Your earlier post sounded like you had the 12" muffler. Did you swap 12" -> 14" -> 16", or was your first muffler the 14"?
Does 16" sound much different than stock?
I swapped out the 12” muffler from Ditry Deeds for a 16” model from them and I couldn't be happier with the decision. While there's still a hint of drone, it fades into insignificance once I hit the highway, drowned out by the hum of tires and...
Are you looking for a used set, or new? Finding a used set of five (and I would recommend ordering six if you're going to run these, in case anything happens) will be very difficult stateside; maybe someone with a Middle East connection like Land...
Does anyone on the forum have a relationship with an importer or someone else who can easily source the 17x7 phone dial steelies available for the 200 series?
Better yet, if you know someone who already has a five count! Picture shows wheel in...
Removed the 10-yr old PPF from our used 2013 LX. Incredible transformation and shockingly was only around 6 hours of work. More details on the process with photos on this post.

So, I have my OnX set to auto renew from the bank account, I dont even think about it. Apparently my wife looked at the bank in the middle of the night, and then almost woke me up to know why the hell I was on porn sites buying such things....She...
Bought my 08 with 200k miles on it 6 years ago. Now has 278k with normal maintenance under my care, and unknown maintenance prior. No unexpected issues that would imply a need for more maintenance.
The only thing I wish had been done earlier...
Did the Loncky steering wheel thing today for my flaky '17 wheel.
Meh...some parts are good, but some of the corners around the columns are pretty shaky. Took me like 4-5 hours and I'm not 100% happy. May end up pulling down and reworking it...
Hey Y'all,
If you're due for a Valve Cover Gasket Job, we have a 2-Part video series that will help you get the job done. I have to say, it's a bit of a pain in the butt to do a valve cover gasket job on this engine, but hopefully with our...
Method 705s, 17X8, 35mm offset. 285/70R17 K03s. I painted the hub dust caps black initially but ended up using cryptyk's 3d file to get a center cap extension built via Shapeways.
Hello everybody ;-)
It hasn’t been a week, exactly but I’ve just collected my car from the wrapper last night and put on the new tyres today.
- satin wrap, dual colour
- alloys renovated and powder coated in satin black
- rear “LC” decor, rear...
I know I'm 3 years late on this thread, but I just have to say thank you!! Your hypothesis was absolutely correct. My steering column rattle was about to drive me insane, especially after replacing my sway bar end links and bushings last week...
When the wheel came off, I was on the shoulder in the grass. You will need to replace the front wheel studs, and then you should be up and running. The front wheel and tire should be in the back of the rig; that is where I left it...
(Finished product)
BTW I know about the DONGAR brand and others but thought I show you guys a fun and low cost alternative.
What you’ll need:
12V to 5V DC-DC buck converter
Staple gun steel staples (hammered flat)
Soldering iron, solder, and...
Genuinely interested in what this guy has to say but listening to him speak and watching him is about as enjoyable as punching myself in the face repeatedly. My god that dude just annoys the piss out of me.
