Hey everyone, I live in Alberta... Canada.

Drive a RSX Type S, 06'. Its JGM (Its a US car), and current mods are AEM SRI, Tanabe Hyper Medalion Exhaust, and a sound system.

Heres some pictures of it, bought it a few months ago. It has 65000 Miles.





I'll upload my inside pics in a bit.

 

Heres my Amp ZX 650.4



My Deck Kenwood 5160



Got speakers but can't see any difference, KS650.2


My 9500ix -

 

I like the center console screen. Looks pretty clean altogether!

 

holy crap, thats a big amp. nice pickup.
let me ask you something, how long do you own a car for? i mean being out in canada, i can imagine the amount of rust build up on cars. ive seen many cars from up north find their way down south.

 

Thanks a lot. Just got my sub in. Will upload pics of that in a bit, it hits soooo hard.

I've only owned it since April, but its been driven in Canada for over a year.

Luckily we don't use salt here (Alberta), we use sand instead most of the time. So they don't rust, unless you never wash the underbody.

But yeah in the salt I think most people that car about their cars usually just spray them off 2-3 times a week. Keeps the salt off.

 

Welcome and nice car! I wish I could've had such a nice ride @ 15y/o!

 

Thankyou.
Hah had to work hard to get it, well my parents put in 4k but I paid the other 11,500. With a loan, monthly payments.

 

clean car, I like the head unit a lot

and welcome

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Nice clean rsx

 

do you have pictures of the exhaust setup? I'm curious to what it looks like since the Hyper Medalion is discontinued. http://www.tanabe-usa.com/exhaust.asp

 

Yeah, prev. owner didn't clean it much at all so it looks kinda gross in this picture haha.





I might be upgrading soon though, since this piping is actually pretty small. I may go for a 3" setup.

 

youll loose power n/a 2.25" piping is enough. Turbo go 3".

 

No they recommend at least 2.3, 2.5 for maximum power.

 

nice car bro , welcome to the forum

i always loved the rsx-s , i always wanted one in black

 

Gorgeous car, man...loving it!
I had a BOM...I kinda miss it sometimes...
had my ep wheels on it for a while...and megan racing suspension. Also, had the foglight bezels painted to match...that could look nice!

See

 

Sick ride. Is your amp powering speakers or do you have a sub and if so what kind?

 

nice RSX

 

Thats a sick car man!


Thanks. My amp is powering the two front speakers, I got Kicker's in the front. Amazing quality, they are components with tweeters.
I'm not running any rear speakers because they aren't needed in the hatchback, you get way better SQ with just fronts.
Then I have a JL 8" W3. Its so amazing, its way louder than most of my friends two 10". Since its a hatchback. Plus its running at like 230W RMS I think.


Thanks

 

Treat her well!

 

Thanks man, trust me, I sometimes do miss her! Even with a TL now...

 

so jealous, jgm is the rawest color

 

Jade Green was the color I test drove...LOVED it, but BOM was my first love.

Any updates on yours since you posted originally?

 

RSX's are the easiest cars to JDM out cleanly. Love RSX-R wheels or get rotas Torgue which a way cheaper copies.

 

congrats!

 

I have a few new things done to the car since I last saw this thread lol.

-Hardwired my 9500ix so theres no cord showing.
-Got a KiddRacing/ Racing Header
-Yellow Fog Lights
-6000k 55W Digital HID's Low Beams
-ESMM (Motor Mount Inserts = No wheel hop)
-Skunk 2 10th anniversery Shift Knob
-Debadged "Acura" "RSX-TypeS" on the back.

Also got Hankook V12 Evo tires... Would highly recommend them.


A few things I'm planning on doing this summer.
-Mugen Front Bumper.
-Progress Coilovers

Heres some recent pictures.



Me and my friends Type R.

 

Ordering new Mugen Replica Front Bumper + 2 New JDM badges. Also might buy K-Pro this fall.

 

Damn that's a great looking RSX! I love it!

Did you have any issues bringing a USDM car into Canada? Extra taxes, inspections, etc?

 

New to the forum here. I had an '03 RSX and upgraded to an '06 when I found out the line had been abandoned by Acura. Love the car...just got back from a 4K trip out west, and the car didn't miss a beat.

 

nice car

 

looking gooD!!!!

 

Thanks a lot! I appreciate it.

When I purchased it, the guy who owned it got it shipped in from the states.
But in Alberta we have no inspections at all lol. We don't have emissions or anything, so thats how I can drive with no catylitic converter haha.

 

Very nice rides. I'll be taking pics of my RSX after this weekend when I get my new rotors in paint and install them. As well as re paint my calibers.

 

awhh... Classic.. Type R!!! dc2!

it's shame that Honda didn't bring the "r" over to North American shores.. dc2 was a hot seller.. but yet also a #1 stolen vehicle! LOL

 

OP your making great progress already....

Car is coming along well....

and Ohhh..welcome to Azine
