Default Picked up my Type S today (no 56k)

Its story/road trip time people!

Well today was fun. Me and my friend tyler left at ~11:30 am in his CRX.. w/ a LONG..... LONG drive. 3hrs, 198miles one way. The drive was pretty fun, the way there didn't go long at all. The crix gave us a bumpy ride, but what do you expect when you have 4 cut springs? lol We took pictures of our little adventure. We forgot about the 1hr difference, so we got there at least an hour ahead of schedule. So we had time to stop at a Red Robin and get some grub, Then i picked up my ride:
-2002 Acura RSX type S: 27k miles, Goldline Springs, 18" konig holes rims, ITR spoiler. I love it. It rides so smooth, nice n fast, and the stock stereo is amazing. Not sure what plans i have for it yet... lets see what $ i have.

Entering the skyway (**** toll roads)


Stylish shots of the awesome CRiX





Pure Luxury here people...


High End stereo system


Fresh Chicago!


White Sox


Huge *** truck



Food Time!


The G-Ride that took us there (btw she has 215,4xx miles when we left... she's a hoss and STILL running strong!) Custom TDOGG 4-cut spring suspension, T$ high end flat black spray paint job. We had to make an emeregncy stop on the highway because the hood was flappin, almost poped open! haha




Look at that wheel gap!


We were given like 10 baloons from red robin and blew them up for no reason. Now we have the worldes coolest shift ****.


These didn't stay blown up long...


Here she is... pix are shitty but so was the weather. Im definetly gettin new pix when its nicer out.




Ghetto rice we all love so much

So there ya have it... our little adventure. I had fun. didn't get home till about 8:15 Michigan time. I raced my first ricer too on the way home on i-94! haha we actually saw 2 srt-4's. One was blue w/ cf hood, and a cf trunk but he got off. Later on i seen a black one flyin up behind us through chicago traffic. I knew he saw my ricer wing and wanted some. haha. He had a custom side exit exhaust w/ a weird tip on it.. looked like **** IMO. He had Mopar Stg1 badges on the back, and Stage 1 stickers on the front lip. We went for 2 runs, 1st run i thought we were gonna go on 3rd honk... but evidently it ment when he punches it. lol no contest. 2nd run: we punched at the same time. he walked me still but not bad. This car puts up a better fight then my old GSR did against a stg1 SRT-4. We gave our thumbs up and went seperate ways. So YES! My first beat!!

btw: the car looks a lot better/sportier then shown in these pix. OH yeah... still hass warrenty till 50k miles.

as of now i feel more safe taking corners in the gsr. The rsx only has Goldline lowering springs. and is a tad bigger. i just feel a little big safer in the gsr. but i plan to fix that sometime in the future.

1115R- hahah tyler you ricer. your right the CRX gets plenty of love tho!


btw people... those rims are for sale OR trade. so if anyone has some 16" rims.. lets talk.
