Another new member!

Hey guys. Just found this forum, looks great! I`m always looking for ways to improve my lil daily driver rocket! I commute 82 miles a day, so my mods have to stay fairly conservative & definitely reliable!
So far my mods:
Chassis - BG coilovers, Hotchkis sport sway bars & comp end links, ITR brake ducts, Axxis ult pads, Motul RBF300 fluid, 5Zigen ZR520+ 17X8 - 42 wheels, Falken FK452 225/45-17, inverted tie rod ends, steering rack bracket
Motor - AEM CAI, PRC intake manifold, P2R plenum & tb spacer, Hondata IMG, ITR header & cat, Comptech exhaust, Z3 cams, Gates belt & hoses
ECU - K-Pro.............I love that little box!





Comments & suggestions welcome!

Lee

I normally hate white cars, but man the 02-04 RSX with JDM headlights and the 05-06 RSX in white both look so hot. I wish I'd gone white.

Thanks for the welcome guys. I`ve just been doing the tune myself, but I`m going to be making a road trip down to Church`s in the next month or so. I`m really amazed at the potential of these motors!
My long term goal is to run low 13`s in the 1/4 & get 40 mpg on the freeway. Gonna take nitrous & slicks (easy) & I`ve got a few tricks up my sleeve for the MPG. My wife`s Solara is knocking down 43 MPG all day long!

I was just curious because the guy i get my stuff from sells it for 215 modded. But you also need an adapter for the TB. I don't know why you say that about the cross bar since the RBC is much shorter than the oem one and should fit fine.

where do u get ur stuff from, yeah the tb adapter is another 60. 2 of my buddies that have the rbc had to do it that way. im gonna have to ask them again anyway, but maybe it was just easier. ill have to find that out but the shocks look better anyway Drool

That is a sweet lookin car bro. Definitely envious of the white paint job. Got a nighthawk black one myself. But hey...beggers can't be chooser when it comes to buying used, right?

Once again, very clean and nicely done.

regards,
Joel

Customer: Well, a pussy can look nice and pink and still give you AIDs.
