RSX type s

I wanna know what is one of the best forums for RSX talk.I dontk now much about those cars so I need some detail info. I was thinking about getting rid of my TL 1999 cuz its getting old and getting a RSX type s. Another big plus is manual transmision cuz I came to miss it since I started driving a tl and I cant afford a 3g TL with manual. Also gas is the big factor so the change must happen soon. Thanks guys

My sister has a 2002 RSX. Great car. I would love to have a Type S as a second car. Also its not really a gas friendly car. My TL and the RSX get about the same. Down the road I could see the RSX outlasting the TL.

This ridiculously over-moderated board doesn't allow competitor website names to be posted, so do the following:

type in www.
then type in the word 'club' followed by 'rsx'
then type .com

Best,

When I had my 04 Civic Si I was part of K-Series dot com. Also k20a dot org is another decent sight. Lots of helpful info on both.

Sounds like you're pretty set on getting a 6spd. The 7th Gen Accord might be a good middle ground between the TL and RSX-S. 6spd, V6 and great gas mileage. Just a thought.

If you owned a Subway sammich shop, would you allow people to put up posters in your windows advertising Quiznos ??

Cites to websites for the Integra, RSX and other models not addressed on AZ can't be posted here??
They really aren't competitors since AZ excludes those models, and I thought the BMW and Audi forum websites have been posted numerous times.

Only those boards that cover overlapping models are not allowed.

And the biggest RSX board has started covering TSXs as well, which does make them a direct competitor.

No, but if someone came in looking for a pizza, I would direct them to the nearest Papa Johns.

That's not quite the same though

It's like pretending there's no internet besides this site

Anyway, I've never been much of a fan of the RSX. I think the Civic Si is a better car.

It's a very fun car for sure. Sick handling capability. However, after trading my TL with my friend with his RSX type-s for a week, I missed my TL so much since RSX made SO FUCKING MUCH noise and required too many shifts even if you are driving moderately. As for the gas mileage, it's about the same as my 3G TL AT.

I would recommend you getting an 7th Gen. MT Accord V6 and just upgrade the suspension and tires. My

I remember typing in the RSX website before and nothing happened to me....

I will remember for the future.

It's not the fact that we don't have an RSX forum here, it's the fact that they have a CL, TL and TSX forum over there now...

I was looking at the RSX before I got my CL... I joined the RSX forum before I joined up here as a matter of fact. I just didn't like the RSX. Too small...

So I looked at the Accord, and then decided that a CL 6spd was the perfect combination of a RSX 6spd and 02 Accord (auto). Decent sized car with a 6spd for fun...

If you can't afford a 3GTL, check out the CL 6spd... Prices are great now (sucks for us original owners), and it's a great all around car... Good in snow, but sporty enough for summer...

I realize that it's not polite to mention the competition, and that the site is entitled to make any rule it wants, but isn't making a rule against it kinda petty? Is this site more interested in supressing its competition as Microsoft would rather than trying to be a better forum?
