RX-8 TYPE-X
Special Aggressive Styling Edition
A long-awaited muffler conversion kit for the later model, available to owners of the earlier model.
We have a new suggestion, especially for those who have installed a rear bumper other than the genuine one. It is now possible to install a more aggressive-style full titanium muffler for the later model.

Original bumper shape
Early model : The lower part of the muffler outlet is closed, which limits the muffler diameter.
Later model : There is no bumper structure below the muffler outlet. The muffler outlet is positioned lower and further out than the earlier model.
RSE Early/Late Model Muffler Comparison
Early model : Piping was done with a diameter of Φ80.5 to avoid interference with the bumper structure.
Later model : Aggressive design with a Φ115.0 pipe running straight through after the main silencer.
Verification of installing a later model muffler on an earlier model vehicle.
When a later model muffler is installed on an earlier model vehicle , the muffler outlet is positioned considerably downwards.
Late model muffler + late model silencer band
Changing the silencer band to the one for the earlier model will result in the muffler outlet being positioned closer to that of the earlier model.

Proposal from RSE
By swapping the silencer band of the later model muffler kit with that of the earlier model , it can be set up as the TYPE-X Special Aggressive Styling Edition.
For the original bumper for the earlier model,
please remove the muffler garnish before use. Using the muffler garnish requires significant modification as shown in the left diagram, which compromises structural integrity and is therefore not recommended.
For aftermarket bumpers
, please perform any necessary modifications to avoid interference or heat damage.
For early model vehicles, the later model muffler is TYPE-X: RB6090-MZ07C
The early model vehicle has an early model muffler , RB6090-MZ07A.
The later model muffler for later model vehicles is RB6090-MZ07B
Example: MAZDASPEED Rear Under Skirt
The spring hook position will shift.
The silencer band overlaps the press logo.
The logo is not parallel to the ground.
