do the 04-05 Front end and Rear end Type R Conversion

don't buy aftermarket

OEM JDM FTW

any pics of the -04-05 front end

google? :dunno:

The RSX name never came in a "Type R". It's considered the Integra Type R

It'll look good if you change the badges from Acura to Honda!

i agree the Honda and Integra badges is a must.. dont put any ITR on badge on tho

[792171004]

thanks for ur input any other suggestions?

[792171004]

i dont really like the white rims wat would look good with pearlwhite and pics

[buh_buh]

start with the engine :thumbsup:

[792171004]

engine would be later on perhaps a turbo kit but not to sure

Yeah srsly, with the amount you're going to spend on converting your car, you could probably do a decent amount of engine work.

[CausalInfluence]

You could by a Mugen knock off kit that will make it "look" like a type r. Check Ebay and search Mugen body kits.

Really its ultimately up to you but things to consider are suspension and brakes. Type r brakes are 11" rotors / 9" rotors front/back with 4pot calipers up front and 2pot calipers out back.

Suspension: you could do it right and buy a set of tein lowering springs and some GOOD gas struts. If you are serious about trackablilty look at some adjustable coilovers w/ a camber kit. again that would be pricy with a good brace up front and a rear stabliser.

Problem with doing body before performance is you will run out of money and cheap out where you shouldnt.

Turboing your motor would be an expensive venture. Something I dont believe you fully understand. It would be in the area of 6 grand plus atleast a couple grand a year in manitenace and various parts which WILL break regardless of your up keep.

Sign up at a good RSX forum and start reading.

Didn't the car also come with gunmetal rims?

[ShinRa]

I think I have seen silver rims on the non champ white dc5-r but not gunmetal.

You're probably thinking of the 2000 Integra Type R in Yellow!

No, not quite... the car came with white and silver rims.

I also suggest buying an iPod Touch and writing "IPhone" on the back of it. Because that's pretty much all you're doing here.

LOL, what clean look? the thing is stock:rofl: :rofl:

It's funny when everyone mentions "clean", its just exactly however it came from the factory. Thanks, i'll go buy myself a new "clean" looking car from the dealership then.

My stock RSX was pretty clean after I took it to the wash.
