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.

[pdiggitydogg]

hmm...
heavier
10 more hp
1 more ft/lb
raised redline
itr camshafts, IM and larger tb

Why they couldnt just bring the itr over for this run is yet another "why no r?" mystery

It looks more like a civic now, since the civic doesnt look like a civic...
The jade color is nice

There are clearer pics @ http://www.kingmotorsports.com/05rsx.asp

umm.. i guess its better. im not that impressed though.

[JDMFantasy2k]

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

[IALuder]

looks good to me. it doesnt look like a civic at all. id buy one, but im poor and i gota faster car anyways.:yes:

[pdiggitydogg]

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

:no: 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. :no: :no:

BTW, I think the RSX comes with stock 17s for 05.

[ebpda9]

only the type s 16x6.5 for the base

[Otakuguy]

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.

[ebpda9]

you can get the type r option on ebay for under $10

[Otakuguy]

?????:confused:

badges.....:D:D:D:D

[Otakuguy]

haha oh yea...i guess that's one way of going about it...if you're really that shameful

[pdiggitydogg]

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.

[CD5Passion]

there's an huge improvement on the styling, it looks a lot more like an integra, I would buy it...had I money

[G-M-W]

i think it looks alot better :yes:
