    I just put a 8th gen civic trans in my base. I recommend a 6 speed swap to any base owners. It Freed up some power.

      Yo how much are those trans going for and is it a straight swap????

    • @willalexander177
      @willalexander177 Před 5 lety +1

      For a 05-06 rsx the swap isn’t to hard since the vss are the same. 02-04 the case needs to be drilled to fit the vss. You will need a type s shift selector. Also a k tuned shifter cable bracket or drill the case and tap for the type s one. Also need a speed converter. Or change the ratios if you have k-pro.

    I started from the ground up. Wheels from TL, rotors/pads, springs, anti rolls, clutch, cai,RH,exhuast,hondata etc. Weight reduced with a lightweight flywheel (rotational mass) beats any kind of interior stripping imo. The most important thing is a Hondata

    • @musshwins412

      careful with hondata…… it can start an expensive habit.

    I Love that RSX man... I'm thinking of getting coil-overs for my RSX, it's my daily , no track or auto cross or anything like that but it's tuned making 220whp. I've narrowed them down to Tein street advance Z or BC racing. The BC are almost twice the cost of the Teins tho. Which would you recommend ? Are the Teins any good seeing that they are 1/2 price of the BC's?

    • @DC502civic629
      @DC502civic629  Před 6 lety

      If you drive your car like a grandma and never speed or drive reckless get the Teins.... If you drive fast and push it and beat on the get the BC racing could or just get some custom coils built for cheaper than the BC's.

I know that I want some rpf1s that are 17x9, but then I see the rest of the chart and see the offset and such and idk I panic and don't pull the trigger on it. I just don't wish to buy something and have it not fit or buy it and have it fit and then try to upgrade the brakes and it doesn't fit anymore. I think that is the biggest struggle for me.
