It's Christmas time again and I've decided to treat myself to a new exhaust, I was looking at this HKS Style catback exhaust but it said that it wouldn't fit cars with the optional RAS. My question is what about my rear active steering would prevent me from being able to install it?

As far as I know, nothing. The RAS is just a small steering rack. The factory exhaust is the same... I'll look at a few diagrams when I get to work Monday.

I only have 2 games. Madden 10 and NFS shift. regarding the exhaust, I don't see any reason why an aftermarket would fit a Standard G and not one with RAS, Unless they stupidly designed the muffler to be so close to the rear sub member that it would collide with the HICAS unit. Its only like 2.5 inches wide. The factory muffler is the same on both models. Actually, with the exception of the lower link, the rear suspension is also identical.
