No offence, but most of the owners of RSX's that I've seen are arrogant and ignorant. I had one try to race me down 441 the other day and ride my ass all the way up the hill. Then when he pulled along side me, I dropped to 3rd and spun my tires at 50mph and showed him that I have torque. He then pulled up next to me at a stoplight, seeing my oil PSI gauge and asked "how many PSI I was running." When I told him it's NA, he looked at me funny and just sat there.
Apparently Honda's don't have power unless they're turbo? :shrug: I'm not a huge fan of Honda tuners. :\ But, as long as you don't feed into the B.S. they'll throw at you, you have my respect. I also don't want anyone getting the idea that I raced him or gave into his childish game. I simply spun the tires enough to give me a cars length on him and stared him down as he passed.

You got that mixed up, There are Hondas/Acuras with power for sure. It's just the torque thats lacking lol. I also drive an RSX and know a lot of people in my state that do, for the most part everyone is chill and doesn't care for d***bagery things like you said the one guy did. It's just the people you'll get every once in a while that think they are the bees knees and will most likely be blowing a perfectly good motor in the next year or so Same thing for almost any other type of car, there are people who take care of thier car and there are people who don't give a damn, so they are jerks on the road. dont like the tint...is that even legal? RSX's have a slight tint to the windows from factory, so when someone has them tinted, they seem even darker. But that doesn't look too dark IMO. -------------------- |

Unfortunately, most of the people around here are like the RSX guy on 441.

I prefer the 05+ RSX-Type S they're very nice cars its what I'd imagine a 8th gen celica non-gt4 would drive and perform like, the rsx type s is imo 100x better then the 7th gen celica I hated the 7th gen celica what a big disappointment to me...

His is faster. No big heavy wheels or big body kit on McLovin's RSX.
Personally I find the modifications you have there to be almost a decade outdated... But if it makes you happy. Most of us here are FHI loyalists, but you've only been around for almost 4 months. Not a loyalist. Good luck with your honda endeavors. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
