It has been a month but no luck. I really would like to thank all of your support and sympathize my pain. I will be getting my claim back in a few days. I have been thinking of getting another R but really don't know if I want to go through all the hassles again. I don't like WRX because it's not as reliable as honda and acura. IS300 is way over my budget. RSX-S simply sucks in handling. I found all the new model of acura has much softer suspension. My friend's 95 civic unmodified has better handling than the RSX-S because the suspension is stiffer and the ride is lower and the center of gravity is lower.

Here is my choice, I still miss the power of Vtec, so want to know what hybrid can offer. How's the frame and structure of the American EK? regit? how's that compare with the R, this question is specifically for those who have driven both. With the help of strut and sway bars, will those bring it closer in handling with the R? Thanks for all your help.

 

96-00 EK4 hatchbacks are the perfect platform for a street/race car. It can be made very stiff with the appropriate bracing and suspension mods. Also, it's shorter wheelbase makes it a little more tossable than our DC2's.

 

Did you drive the rsx-s? What were your other impressions?

Maybe your car was stolen by that car theft ring that just got busted, If so they might contact you, But Im sure it will take them a few weeks to sort out all the parts etc they found
