Default Anyone Autocross their V6 6-speed?

Moving from an RSX-S to another car most likely.

There is a dark grey V6 6-speed sedan 3 hours away thats CPO. $16,000 with 65,5XX miles. has warranty till 100K.

My question is how competitive is this car in G-stock?

I have looked around in the autocross section and don't see anyone with one of these.

To my knowledge it is double wishbone all around, is this correct?

LSD would technically throw me out of G-stock but do you guys go aftermarket or with the CL-S LSD?

Thanks in advance

Any related advice would also be appreciated

that would be ridiculous... now a big track, that's different.
leave the cone heads to themselves, and let the big boys run 90+mph avg lap times.

Competitive in GS? NOPE! The GS car to have is a Mini.

Fun in GS? For sure! Get what makes you happy.

How bad does the lack of a LSD hurt autocross? What LSD is available for a 04 Accord Coupe V6 6-speed?

hurt autocross? Not at all... but you WILL be faster with one. But i def LOVED it when i put one in my Prelude... I think that more cars should have that option.

Im not really sure what brands available without doing the research, but i know that there are some Acura options along with many aftermarkets. Quaife makes LSD, Kaaz, and others.

Base Mini is in HS, Mini S is in DS last time I checked. I've had fun in ST with my RSX but always lost.

would definitely help, I wanted to get one for my RSX. but it bumps you up to STX class I believe, regardless of other mods.

Oh ok i forgot that they moved them this past year to HS.

Yes adding a LSD bumps you to at least STX or like DSP. Worth it but you get bumps.
