sorry about the crappy phone pics




Since things with my accident have been taking so long I decided to buy a car. My replacement to my long lost Integra. 2003 SSM RSX manual. There were only 6 for sale in my price bracket and this is what I walked away with. Queens, NYC is so full of traffic and bad roads I thought this would make a great commuter and is awesome on gas compared to the Type-S. I've had here for about 3 weeks now and so far I love it! 87 Octane FTW. NYC to NJ everyday dats a Bit*h on my pocket.

It came with an injen short ram intake with heat shield, 1.5 inch drop on progressive springs, tanabe hyper medallion exhaust system, oem jdm type r HID's.
Since i have added 17 kyowa rims, red h badges, upgraded to 10,000k HID's, license plate relocator, window visors, alpine head unit, front upper, rear upper, rear lower and c-pillar strut bars, energy suspension motor mounts, dc race headers, exedy stage 2 clutch, muteki lugs. Not pictured are OEM fog lights and JDM turn signal markers, in the mail are brian crower stage 2 cams.

This is definitely a better car than my last. Having a factory warranty and full coverage this time make me pretty secure. This is not a race car by any means but, not a car with no go either!!! All opinions are welcomed, thank you.

i don't understand why anyone would buy a base rsx and have tuning in mind. i mean it would take so much money to make a base model put out 200 hp like a stock S. Ok 87 octang is a good reason for the wallet but that's it. if you want power, sooner or later you're going to have to go back to high comp. setups. just my person 2 cents. but the car looks good though. lovin it. silver cars FTW

Isn't this situation the same as someone buying an LS and tuning it to reach 170hp like a stock GSR? There's this guy I met last week who had a supercharged (Jackson Racing) LS. He had it dynoed and his ride was putting out 142whp. Even though he's boosted, I can still hold my own against him. I probably have like 1-3whp more than him, but he has more torque than me. He had to spend over $2K to get to where I am, which is basically stock.
