Default A Few RSX Questions.

I've seen some with a nice tall spoiler and I was wondering if that is type r style. I was wondering if there is a place where I can buy one that is already white to match my 02... I was also wondering what would be the best spark plugs to use on the RSX-S... Thanks for your help. And yes I do use the SEARCH okay lol...

ok first question ... the dealerships around las vegas sell the type r wings in most colors ... so i guess a dealership near you should ... if now your car is white and if you just buy a jdm type r wing than it should be white cause thats the main color they come in try looking in jdmland.com ... there maybe a white one there ...

second question ... the spark plugs are up to you ... it will depend on your application ... the stock ones are ngk iridiums ... kinda nice already but some companys like hks make spark plugs that will last you about 15k miles more than the ngk ones and have a better performance (kinda) ... so decide on what you will be doing with your car and than figure out what kind of ignition system you want on your car that should help you decide on which spark plugs to get ... good luck

Most dealerships will sell them, your best bet is probably buying it through a dealership, online.

I wouldn't buy an actual Type R wing because the Integra Type R's come in Championship White, not Pearl White Pearl like your car.

Question 1, Yes the dealership sells the high wing but it will cost you more than online. I have seen the wing sell for 300 or less. Buy it online then have them put it on.

Question 2, I actually bought some Bosch Platinum Plus+4 spark plugs for my car (06 type-S) And I could actually tell a differance in the amount of pick up my car had my friend could also tell as well. Its like 30 bucks for the plus 4's but I say they are worth it. Best spark plugs I have ever used. You can get them at your local auto parks store, and you also to not have to gap them, they a car specific. I heard lots about them and I can say only good things.

Some of the spoilers you see are A-Spec spoilers, but essentially they are the same thing. As far as spark plugs just goto sparkplugs.com and get the stock NGK's.
