It depends on if your bumper is sticking out too far or is sunk in. From the pics it looks like it's sunk in. I got the brakes off a 2000 LS Integra.

Whats it like to have a beautiful Canary yellow rhd eg on spoons? Seriously my dream right there!
Its carnival yellow . Cheers for the kind words

Whats it like? haha, well, its just a car man . But I love driving it, and drive it whenever i can as its my daily. May as well make as much use out of my parts as possible to justify buying them haha

Infact, went on a ~350km drive yesterday with the Porsche club as a camera car to cover the event for our website. The cars, the roads, the people, the scenery, so awesome. Cruising at 120kph through canefields and getting passed as if you arent even moving by a modified 996 911 turbo with screamer wide open is just something else . Pics soon.

We definitely like it and driving the Civic after driving that car feels like going from a Benz to a tractor haha. If it was 6 speed it would be a lot more fun, but she wanted Auto so.....

Even with 225s, traction control, giant sway bars, bigger brakes, and better designed suspension the Civic will still destroy the TSX around corners just because of the weight difference.

Isn't double wishbone suspension better though? Newer honda ride so good and theyre mcpherson. Why is that? Even with an EG with really good suspension that doesn't have high spring rates prob rides worse than a stock EP3,FA2,etc. Mcpherson doens't have dynamic camber change so how can it ride better. Someone chime in!

The TSX has double wishbone in the front and multi link in the rear (Two lower arms, two upper arms). Ours is lowered on progressive rate S-Techs and it rides pretty much stock until you really lay into it. You can just tell the center of gravity is way higher and it weighs a good 1000lbs more than the Civic.

Oh I see. I had S-techs as well. They ride really good but I had blown shocks so it was really bouncy but I could tell the springs were nice. I still have them and will probably put them in for the winter.

So, my little cousin is 16 and has been building a 93 DX hatch for the past year with his dad. He worked his *** off on the weekends and all summer to get money together for parts. So far he's got a new hood, bumpers, carbon duckbill, "type-R" lip, OEM fogs, spoon style mirrors, EX cluster, buddy club shift ****, 15x7 bronze slipstreams, a little system and Tanabe lowering springs. Last week my uncle told him he took the car to the shop to get a tune up and is going to surprise my cousin with a complete championship white paintjob for his birthday. My cousin has no clue his car is painted and my uncle goes today to pick him up from school to show him the new look for the first time. Talk about a bad *** little kid and dad! I'll try to post pics later once I get them from my uncle.
