2005 acura rsx
well since no one bothered looking for info and pics on it i thought i'd do it today.
http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=260705 the type s models get a 10hp boost (not much but it is there) i think it looks better than the older model.

improvement, but not enough. Honda should just grow some balls and start turboing vtec engines from the factory

there used to be a rumor that the next generation civic si would be turbo'd as an option.
I doubt that will happen |

 I thought from my own dear imagination that they'd do something cool with it as well, if not a stock turbo nor s/c, at least more hp or something..but then..the EP3 ruined my faith in civic si's future.

It looks alright to me. A little more integra has been put into it (As seen in the rear tail lights) I gotta agree with PDiggz though. Why no Type R? It boggles my mind.

and theres a bunch of tools that will do it
The optional S wheels look good too (I built one)..but I think theyre too large @ 17"... I guess I'll have to head down to Acura of Troy and drive one of these things soon. |
