There are some desigm flaws IMO. They would have to "fix" those to get my money.

I can't stand it. I don't like the backward motor idea and the alternator being right next to the intake manifold. How are you suppost to get a cold air intake with the intake pointed toward the back of the motor? How are you suppost to run a JR supercharger if the alternator sits right there? And how are you suppost to run a front mount intercooler with the exhaust manifold in the back? I don't like it.

I agree with you 00si, but i'm sure people will figure out how to make power with it. Those round brake light indention things make it look soo ugly IMO. I dont mind the looks except for those damn lights.

Shouldn't one of the choices be"Who can wait till the Type R comes out!"

I'm totally happy with what I've got.

Until the RSX R gets here.


When will it get here?

When will it get here, probably not for a while. Don't expect it to look like it does now anyway. It will probably be de-tuned, expect no recaro's and no big brake upgrade to it.

G5--good point!

If Honda follows their "new-model-every-3-or-4-years" philosophy then we may be seeing a new integra a year or two after the R gets here!

Actually, the motor isn't backwards, it's the right way. Honda has had their motors backwards until now. When you see the motor in person, there is plenty of room in the rear of the engine compartment for a turbo. You're right though, the piping from the turbo to the intake track/intercooler is going to be funky as hell. As soon as I get beat by a stock RSX-S, I'm trading my car in. until then, I'll keep tearing Asz. -C
