does anyone know if the Zex nitrous kit fit on a RSX Type S?

 

hey if it is a universal nos kit, then no, it will not work on the rsx. at the time being there is no nos kit available for it. the main problem is the timing. the i-vtec advances and retards the timing by itself. in order for the nos to work u have to retard the timing. if not then BOOM!!!! no more engine. so look more into nos kits. just give it some time. there will be a nos kit available soon. but for the time being just have fun with the car.

i'm considering buying a RSX Type S. what aftermarket parts are out there to make this machine faster?

 

well at the moment, there are 2 intakes availabe for it. aem and injen. as for exhaust, there are 3 or 4 available. i know mugen has a exhaust for it. also skunk, hayami, and i know apexi is gonna bring the N1 for it soon. as for headers, those are all still in the works. dc had a pair of headers on thier rsx-s at the sema show. but they didnt not give a release date on them. as for suspension there is h & r. prgresive, skunk2 coil overs, and many lowering kits, body kits there is c-west, mugen, wings west. and a few more coming out, i am getting the c-west kit for mine, but its a month wait for me. and as for nos kits, venom is in the works of making one, so give it time on that. the rsx-s motor is still new, so many people want to nos it out, but my advice to them is hold off. get the kit made for it. well if need any other info just email me or im me. laterz

damn, thanks. i'm asking cause i'm thinking about selling my gsr to get a RSX+

 

no it will not work. The zex works off fuel pressure and the RSX is fuel returnless car so you can not plumb it in without doing more work then it is worth.

 

I called N.O.S today they said that universal kits wont work like that guy said because i wanted a kit for my car.... I guess they are in the making of building a kit for the rsx, they are sponsoring a company whom has an rsx (forgot who) and in the profects of that almost done but i guess they said unlike normal nitrous kits u cant use rsx stock fuel preasure regulator so they have to build a kit for that or some ish?


as far as the self adjusting timming goes? i dont know how that will work but N.O.S is making a kit! number (714) 546 0592 if anyone can dig up more info let me know as well! thanks

 

there are more parts than what u mentioned, i have a comptech full exhaust, and aem cai w/ bypass. but greddy and hks both released a turbo for it or at least in the next month.

 

interesting

 

timing on the 5th gen prelude can't be adjusted either, but many run NOS.

as for the returnless fuel system...beats me.

 

what about a wet system? can you run that?

 

NOPE. Unless its specified for the RSX. U cant use stock pressure regulator like i said, and the rsx timming advances and retards by itself. so they got to make something that will work for the RSX.

 

not even a zex kit will make your RSX run with the big dogs....

 

HAHA bid doggs huh? do u consider yourself a "big dogg"

 

Acura RSzeX?

 

Um, I-VTEC changes the CAM timing. I think you are talking about ignition timing. People retard IGNITION timing so they can run a bigger shot of Nitrous without detonating. Cam timing has nothing to do with this. The ZEX kit wont work, but a wet kit will. All you have to do is tap into the fuel line somewhere. Please dont offer advice if you dont know what you are talking about. This is my 1st time ever in the RSX forum and i am dissapointed in the general lack or quality in the tech answers here.

 

actually **** face i was talking about the ignition timming. Thats what i heard anyways never said it was true . and now u cant use a wet system yet. Your stupid and u need to learn some ****. I already called nos and i called zex, as well as local shops and my friend is an ex mechanic at honda so thank you very much for you non insiightfull info *******. stick to your own forums and do some research dick.

 

Yeah, OK mister big bad RSX man. Thats right, im just a dumb *** Integra owner, i must have forgotten. Oh, if you were really talking about ignition timing, why did you say i-VTEC controls it? I mean, ignition timing is controlled by the computer in most Hondas, not only in your special i-VTEC motor. One more thing, you CAN run a wet kit, all you have to do is tap into the fuel rail somewhere. Sorry if im right, but your info is incorrect. I know this because i have SEEN it with my own eyes as well as the timeslips.

HAHAHA ok buddy wahtever u say. and when i was refering to "ivtec" i ment as in the ivtec motor, not the ivtec running it smart guy. And yes you are a dumbass. lol stick to your own forums. and i guess your right guy, and NOS is wrong and everyone else on this forum is wrong right? YOU KNOW IT ALL!

 

Yep, NOS is wrong. Anyways, you seem to be the only one who says it isnt possible. Maybe if you knew anything about nitrous oxide, you could understand why it is possibe, but i guess thats just too much for you to grasp.
