do the rsx-s's have good suspension...my freind wants an rsx and was thinking about this. what is the worst part of and how does he fix it?

 

It's kind of a bumpy ride (opinion), getting it dropped 1.5 inches and putting some smoother shocks would fix it. Nothing out yet as far as shocks go, so you gotta live with the bumpiness (If it's even a problem to the driver), but I'm waiting for shocks before I drop it, makes it bumpier if you drop without shocks.

 

The worst part of the suspension is actually the shity *** tires. I don't know what they were thinking putting those on the s. Other than that its a great setup, pretty stiff and minimal body roll.

 

The RSX Type S has a great suspension setup. Some old schoolers consider it a step back that the RSX runs McPherson struts up front, but they actually handle very well.

Your best bet to upgrade the suspension is to get full coilovers...no not those skunk2 or GCs, the full replacement...if you get an adjustable set, you can trim it out to your preference....for street and/or track use.

I've had mine over a year now and I love it more than ever.

 

Holy **** dude, you have the most highly modded rsx I have yet encountered.
How is the power from the pipes and hondata?

 

i'm waiting for the bilsteins to hit the states...or apex'i to get their N1 dampners out...the sportlines are nice...but i'd love more.

 

The power is close to 190 at the wheels. It's been a few mods since my last dyno, so that's a gross but conservative estimate. I'm waiting for the SS DC headers anytime now...before I dyno again...also I'm going to have Hondata drop my rev limit to 8600 until I can reinforce the head.

Actually, I forgot to mention three other mods. Honda "H" DC5 jdm emblems front and back and a jdm DC5 "Integra" emblem out back. I dont' need no candy-coated Acura emblems when in the rest of the world this car is still an Integra. I have much respect for all Integras! Gotta love em.

 

h and r is making a 2 in drop cup set for the rsx , it should be coming out soon
