i've loved these cars, a buddy of mine had one. I went out and bought my RSX and he had to get an RSX-S lol.Out of curiosity, is this a faster car than the base rsx that I have with the K20a?

I'm not a speed freak, just curious on the specs //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

To tell you the truth, I'm not too certain with the RSX's.

They had a K20, which does around 200 at the crank, but is it an auto or manual? Plus I'm sure the RSX weighs just a little more.

This will help you with your ****** questions and give you an idea of what will help and what will change.

Also the LS 5th gear is popular in b16's because their 5th is shorter than a gsr. The LS 5th gear isn't that big of a difference in the gsr. Maybe 300rpm.

Ahh ok. Yea, then my car would probably be faster. Stock is 170hp. With the bolt ons, I should be seeing now about 170 give or take to the wheels. And my car is lighter by a couple hundred pounds, and 100 pounds is a 1/10 of a second in the 1/4 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Suspension > bolt on go fast parts!

My car is dumped and I take freeway on-ramps with nice curves at some rediculous speeds from time to time with almost NO bodyroll.

The car came back from paint yesterday, around 5ish she was done from baking in the booth.

Ordered a set of KYB AGX's, they should be here next week. Along with a small lineup of little parts. Like the oil cap and stuff like that, also a carbon fiber plug cover.

I was able to get a set of '98+ GSR Blades, for cheap. They're scratched up a lot, but they'll be stripped and powdercoated/painted.

i love back teg's..

im gunna get the front lip, and rear bumper lips and maybe the low profile side skirt's like you have.. i like that look.

now tint that ***** up..

 

[Fusion_FREAK 10+ year member]

Yea, the front lip, side skirts, and the rear valances are the OEM "Optional" kit. I've seen ABS plastic replicas (mine are fiberglass) online. Unsure about pricing, but from what I remember, they were pretty reasonable. Let me see if I can find the site again.

I'm going to do tint in a couple weeks when some cash frees up. Right now I need to get an ignition coil, and I'll be in good shape. Right now the car likes to misfire sometimes when it's WOT.

The Blades I got will be done up in bronze like the wheels on now. I'm also going to get a full emblem set from Acura and thinking about having them done in bronze too. I'd just get the gold ones, but they're like $80 more for the set, and I think it would look out of place with bronze wheels and flashy gold emblems.

 

[Fusion_FREAK 10+ year member]

Here you go, Seth, Optional replica pieces/kits

I'm also thinking about getting a JDM front end conversion. I haven't seen many, maybe two of them around here. That and a Type R spoiler would look good.
