Default My Nighthawk Black Pearl RSX Type-S, from stock to now

Here she is stock, no options, unless you count wheel locks. In that case, options = wheel locks.



First wave of mods, which I did all at once:
engine: injen sri, skunk2 exhaust, nx n2o kit with gen x2
susp: eibach sportlines, ingalls rear camber, hotchkis f/r sways, rota subzero's w/ bridgestone poleposition s03's
exterior: jdm headlights, bknw cf hood, greddy front lip, replica type-r wing
misc stuff, like red out tailights, and those jDm tYtE red lugs



A little after that, got bored with things, so I did a few changes:
engine: aem cai, hondata, comptech race header (got rid of the sri and n2o)
susp: rota slipstreams with toyo proxes t1s
interior: Recaro SRD's, Momo ****, Momo pedals
exterior: 35% tint front and rear windows, jdm honda badges, took off the other emblems





Decided it could use some side skirts, so I bought the oem optional sides. Also took off the skunk2 exhaust, and put on an A'PEXi WS.



Eventually got tired of all the attention, so I took the Toyo's, and put them on my stock wheels. Put a set of Azenis on the slipstreams. Took off the type-r wing, and put on an oem wing in it's place.

This is with the front window down.



I actually beat this guy, he couldnt drive for his life though, and I still pulled off a mid 14 @ 97ish (fastest that day was a 14.4 @ 98, 2.4 60', so I can't drive either).



A friend of mine got me really involved in this:



So I had to add these:

JIC Magic FLT-A2 coilovers


And an Autopower Rollbar


Also took off the Hotchkis bars bc of the header, but I added a JDM rear sway in it's place. While I was at it, I added a set of G3000 spec rotors to the front and rear, and Axxis Ultimate pads in the rear, and Hawk HPS to the front.

Was getting tired of the stock wheel look, so I traded some spare parts for a set of 18's.




So there she is. Will probably stay this way for a while, save for another set of dedicated track wheels/tires. I probably wont do too much to her anymore. Why? bc of her new friend:

I liked it in every pic except the slips. I sold my NBP RSX to a guy in PA, but it had the OEM body kit from the factory. Thought it was yours for a minute

looks nice.

looks like you wasted a lot of money as part of the learning process as most boys do.

A lot could be said about proper planning. But it did look nice at every stage but the fact that you got bored says you didnt really know what you were after, or that what you were after changed over time.
