The RSX's advantages end with acceleration, however. Sixty-to-0 mph braking takes 128 feet, a figure the RSX must unceremoniously share with the Eclipse as the longest distance in the test. Slalom testing is equally unimpressive; the Celica, Eclipse and GTI bettered the Acura's 64.9 mph speed. This is partially due to the RSX's average-sized 205/55R16 tires.


Notice that, and our cars have the same exact brakes as the rsx, but are a lot heavier. . . .

 

I don't know why Honda/Acura can't get their brakes in order. I feel so unsure when braking fast to a stop. The damn thing seems to go in for a mile before it starts braking. It seems Honday likes its variable timing gizmos so much, they put in a variable braking system. I never know when it'll catch!

But I still love my CL Type S.

 

This is what Sport Compact Car had to say about the RSX Type S tires. "When pushed beyond the embarrassingly low limits of the all season Michelin Pilot MXM4 tires, dumb, squealing understeer is the inevitable result "
