Man it's crazy how good the RSX looks. The new Integra could never compare to its sleek sporty lines, and it's a coupe like every true sportscar should be. I agree with you that the RSX will always be a better car/platform in general but hopefully the new Integra will be a fun car at least.
I drive a black 2005 RSX Type S with mild mods and the Honda red badge in front and rear but no body kit or high spoiler at all. I want to leave it just like it is because I like it that way. the RSX will look even better after some mods.
My K24 pulls nicely through the whole powerband and up top. That is why I love K-series. K24 revs slightly lower, but I still can get 9K on my K24 if I want to and tune for top end if I want to. I simply prefer more useable mid range tho. I have a ported type S oil pump and custom 40 degree VTC so I feel really comfortable with my 8600 K24 redline.
@JesseLee I'm gonna keep the K20 in the RSX, but I actually have a second 124 Spider which we'll be swapping in a K24 and adding a turbo 💪Super excited for that project! I'm sure there will be plenty of times i'm gonna wanna smack my head into a wall with this project but the end result should be worth it 😁
I have a JDM k20a type r swapped into my ep3 civic. FOB kpro tuned. In my neighborhood was an AP2 S2000 probably stock. I raced him twice on freeway on ramps, I walked him both times.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy it! I will try to get more content out with it, just trying to keep her clean during the winter but will sneak her out every so often 😎
Just found this channel, I'm actually in jersey as well and could provide a couple test cars. I have a 2022 M3 Comp Xdrive with downpipes, mid-pipe and jb4 on e30 and a 93 Civic Si, with a k24 swap full bolt ons and e85.
That sounds awesome! DM me on Instagram and we'll catch up instagram.com/driven.district/ Tuned M3 and K24 swapped Si sounds like some fun cars 😈 I had a 2008 M3 that I supercharged and that was one hell of a car. The next project is a K24 swap in my second 124 Spider and putting a turbo on that. I still need to source a K24A2 and waiting on a few parts for the swap but looking to start that real soon.
300+ whp should put down some nice numbers. Here is a link to the Dragy if you're interested: amzn.to/3f88bs6 I know the more popular test is 60-130mph but for cars that aren't pushing tons of power I like doing 40-100mph. Plus it's easier to just quickly get that pull in. On the Dragy though you need to custom set up the 40-100mph as a custom time, just a fyi. I have a video on my Channel going over how to do that too. It's a fun little tool that I like to use for comparing mods/tunes and how it effects the performance.
You realize 217 to 230 is a measly 13whp difference? You're making it sound like it's much more than that lol Different dynos will read different and that alone can have the same car reading more than that 13whp difference. That and the tuner itself. Also location, temperature...soooo many variables. With that said, yes I do not know if it has 230whp since I did not dyno it myself (I was just relaying how much I was told it potentially had). That wasn't the selling point to me anyway since I had plans to turbo the car.
Thanks 👊 Previous owner put them on, they are Function and Form Coilovers. I have an older video here where I go over a lot of the mods if you’re interested: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ptVy52Ikk4g.html
Have you ever try quarter mile time on the draggy? I have a k24/k20 did 14.0 on 2.1 0 to 60 ft At 100mph in the street. Im still on 25 vtc and k24 oil pump. Hopefully I get dyno soon.
Not yet. When the weather warms up I will though. Right now I would just spin since it's too cold here. I like the 40-100mph to compare to other cars as well as to see how mods affect the performance times since it takes out the launch which has a BIG factor on your time. But of course who doesn't love a good 1/4 mile run as well 😎 I would think in it's current set up it would be high 13's, as yours would to if you can get the 60ft down a bit 💪
@O K Thanks 👊 Right now because it's so cold 1st-2nd spins. But once it warms up i'll practice some launching and see what times I can get. Was planning on putting a turbo on but might have to hold off a bit since I have another project coming up. I already have a Fiat 124 Spider Abarth which I love...I got another arriving this week which we'll be swapping in a K24 and then putting a turbo in that. That should be pretty wild once it's done. I have a video here talking about the plans if you're interested: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sj5KCIL0JeA.html I'll do my best to document the project and continue to create content with the RSX and other cars as well.
Which type s logo did you order for your rsx? I bought one but doesnt look as good as yours. (Front grille) also did you paint the front grille ? It looks really clean.
Previous owner actually already had the Type-S logo on the front so i'm not sure exactly where he got it from (also not sure if he painted the grille or not...I haven't really thought about that lol)
@UCT_QtOamGBVZJSgXVKGv0LA dude thanks. Even included a part number what a legend . Ill have to look it up it might be worth the money considering how clean it looks .
@@itachisolosmadara I think my comment got caught by the youtube spam filter since it's missing so if you missed it the part number is 75732-S6m-j01. Also for anyone else that missed my first comment, that is the JDM Type S badge that came on the japanese version of our cars. We didn't get that for our rsx's in the US
@@itachisolosmadara Dc5rparts might have a couple left. But everyone hates him because he blocks out part numbers so no one knows what to search for and so they're forced to buy from him. He also prices his products high for profit so if you are desperate then I would get from him since I honestly haven't found a website that still has this badge in stock for the last year and a half
I have an 06 type-s rated at 201 but you lose HP 12%-15% through the drivetrain making true HP to the ground 175. With FBO of 2.25 in. cat-back flow master 40 delta series ex, skunk2 pro-series IM, skunk2 74mm TB, DC 421 short ceramic headers and Injen tuned air intake. With KPRO and a tune recently putting out 208 hp@8300 RPMS/147 tq.@6200 RPMS on the dyno. What's wrong with this picture??? Don't get me wrong having an added 33 HP is better than nothing at all but i was hoping for at least around 215 and up.
You are choking it up a bit with only a 2.25 inch exhaust and the dc header. You would definitely pick up more power with a better header and a 2.75" or 3" exhaust.
Exhaust should be a 2.5 inch or above to see good gains. Like Andrew said, it's chocking up the car. DC headers in general don't produce that much power compared to other headers from what I've heard and since you say you have a shorty header instead of an actual race header that is mostly the reason why you're not seeing 215 whp and up. Shorty headers can give you a gain of 5 whp while race headers can give 10-15 and on rare occasions 20 whp if it's generous.
@@DrivenDistrict dyno had to of been reading high or he has some porting and bigger injectors plus some TSX cams. Otherwise 230 wheel is simply unattainable with these bolt ons.
@@mackcummy4976 The way you worded it, you were just implying the typical Fiat stereotype. It's because the ambient temperatures have dropped, it's winter here. Very typical in colder temps for the light to come on. That is all. Past few months it goes on and off depending on temperature so nothing to worry about.
First, you need to spend some money and get a dyno test done rather just presenting numbers you don’t know and can’t confirm; stop being cheap and just giving numbers you yourself don’t even know. Second, before you drive it you need to start from a stop and not from a moving start. Despite you not doing these judging from the looks of it it pulls faster than stock. The RPM accelerates up faster than stock despite some modifications. You should go back to the beginning and redo your entire test for precise results. As for your opinion about the “new” Integra you’re not in the minority. Many feel the way you do especially those who have extensive knowledge about the car(s). As a previous Integra and current RSX owner myself I don’t dislike the car. Yeah it got a lot of slapped on adopted parts, etc. from other models put into this car. Yes, it don’t resemble previous models which is a big letdown. They should’ve at least evolved it from the DC5 perhaps then maybe a lot of people wouldn’t hate it so much. The DC2 we all know and love is not coming back as it had its time which is why Honda evolved it to the DC5. The #1 reason I don’t like most about the “new Integra” is that there’s no “2 door” model. The new Integra had better not end up becoming “only” a “4 door family sedan” like the “4 door family sedan” Civic Type R. It’s OK if Acura/Honda offers it in 4 door trim but at least have an optional “2 door” model like generation 1-3. Their lame piss poor excuse is that 2 door coupes don’t sell well so they discontinued it. Honda is a multi-billion dollar company and they won’t offer a “2 door” model is fucking bullshit. Look what happened when they discontinued the RSX in 2006, their company sunk to a garbage level and no one buys their cars other than those looking for an SUV. They introduced some replacement models, I don’t care to identify, and those cars sold so badly they discontinued them also. If they did so well selling those vehicles then why did they discontinue them and bring back the Integra? Yeah they (Acura) suck! That’s why. No one buys their cars other than the SUV people which is why they brought back the Integra in hopes to make sales. Acura offers only 2 “family sedan” cars and 2 SUVs. I won’t include the NSX because it’s also getting discontinued and even if I did no one can afford it unless you’re a millionaire/billionaire which many of us are not. 1 of those family sedans is getting discontinued to be replaced by the new Integra so it’ll go back to 2 cars overall. Anyways, to conclude this, Acura/Honda should just offer the Integra in both “2 door” and 4 door models even if 2 door models don’t sell well like how Honda/Acura claims. Previous Integras/RSXs sold more 2 door models than 4 door models anyways. I don’t have factual numbers but I see a lot more 2 door models than 4 door models and the 4 door models I do see are usually driven by old geezers or family people/groups across all generations. In 2 door models I usually see younger adults with their friends or someone with his girlfriend driving in it. Otherwise, the rest are single drivers. I don’t want to see the new Integra end up becoming only another “4 door family sedan” Civic Type R = ew disgusting, not a cool car at all, period! The Integra is supposed to be the cooler car between the 2 not sunk to the uncool Civic. It should differentiate itself from the “4 door family sedan” Civic.
