Well i decided it just wasn't the car for me. I got the cvt which was a disappointment in my eyes. I love driving a stick way too much. Good news is i didn't get rid of it just gave it to my little sis and i went out and bought something else. Ive been away for a lil while now but i really cant stand 95% of the people on clubrsx.com so i came back to this site too see whats goin on!

Tell me what you guys think!!

I was going to buy an rsx....until I saw the A/C. So congrats on your new ride, nice color choice. And you have one very lucky little sis. Tell her to join the forum, we could use some more females around here

Wow, 14.45, thats great. I wonder what you could get out of a tune, do you have an aftermarket downpipe too? The car looks great, and you now have parts readily available to you. Congrats.

Yea i was super happy with that run lol. I have a full race header. The header comes all the way down to meet up with the Cat-Back exhaust. If i get it dyno tuned i can expect to make about 210whp and run about 13.9-14.1.

If it were in a central location i would come out. Austin would be cool. San Antonio is a bit of a stretch though for a local car meet.

Way, way too rice for my tastes. To each their own... I love my AC because it's sleek and sexy not because it says hey look at my giant wing.

And why do you have a Honda logo on an Acura?

pretty pointless to compare an RSX-Type S to the 2.5 ALtima...

regarding the RSX-S and a 3.5A/C.. I'd say it is a driver's race...

from a roll, it be much closer with a manual A/c vs a CVT...

and while the k20 is great, its no VQ! The VQ has tons of potential...

all in all, the RSX is cool, but as Dangeris stated, a tad bit fast and furious for my tastes with the huge exhaust and gigantic rear wing... congrats on the track times though

Because its like putting a Nissan symbol on an Infiniti - to make it look Japanese Spec.

i.e. :

USA --> Infiniti G35Japan --> Nissan Skyline/350GT

similarly:

USA --> Acura RSXJapan --> Honda Integra Type-R

ahhhh oooonagi!

Exactly what they said above. The wing comes with the car. The only dif. is this one is CF. Ill have it turbo'ed soon with a flat black muffler on there so the giant exhaust goes away too.
