Default ***I Dont Understand ANy Of this Crap & im new to the Game***

okay so check it... im new to the game.. literally.... i bought me a rsx type S 04 pearl white not knowing what i hold in my pocession. all the mods i was goin 2 do it would've killed my car and put a bad name on all who own rsx's... (ie. lambo doors, invert hood etc) until my best friend helped me out and shed some light in my eyes (JDM Honda Freak)... now im all about jdm and keepin originality and stuff... so my rsx is completly stock! completly stock! where do i start 2 make my car look like a panty dropper?

Read the FAQ, then go buy some progress coilovers. Intake, Exhaust, Headers, Cams, Turbo. As for looks, Do a type R kit if you can afford it. Thats what i would do anyway.

Is this post a joke? Either way, it's mildly amusing.

I suggest that you do some research and figure out what it is you want to do.

But, why does everyone think you have to modify a car to make it better? A stock RSX is a nice car. Don't ruin it with a bunch of sh!tty bolt-ons and ground effect kits.

A set of mild lowering springs and nice wheels (notice that I said nice) will go a long way toward making your car look better. Even OEM wheels look ok when the car is lowered (mildly).

All the wheels I own are OEM Honda (I have like 5 sets - RSX-S on my ep, Prelude SH (for sale), Accord EX on my winter eg, and a couple sets of steelies).

Get your windows tinted dark, then grab some lowering springs and rims. Personally i think white rims look really good with a white rsx. Tint, rims, and springs will make a difference between night and day and your not bein rice. Do more than that and your just gunna mess up a nice ride. Also agree that you should learn to drive it well first. Learn the gears, redline, launch, handling, and DONT WRECK IT!
