New RSX-s owner. Just bought with 149k miles all original parts. Is there anything I should be focusing on replacing at this point besides basic maintenance ? Tia

Yeah ain't no way I'm applying hydro slick tonight took me two hours of detailing just to prep it and I'm just gonna detail the inside and hydro slick tomorrow morning or sunset Edit: on top of this I forgot to complain my girlfriends friend keeps bringing me some junk ass 2.5L cvt altima to fix for next to nothing like damn get a honda already and I won't have to keep fixing it
Charge they ass decent money. Iām an auto tech and outside of work I tell everyone who asks me to work on their car or to look at it. āIf I get my hands dirty it isnāt freeā and āa good dinner is accepted as paymentā š¤£š¤£
I went with the skunk 2 mega power Catback exhaust and it sounds amazing definitely slept on.
Hi, did you install it to the factory exhaust manifold or an after market one? Any modifications needed for placement? Definitely interested in your recommendation.
Nope just bolted the skunk 2 mega power catback up to the old cat and exhaust manifold. Just having the catback it does make subtle pops and burbles but if you were one for pops and loud cars you could remove the cat and insert a test pipe in place for it (a straight pipe) and Iām sure youād beget some pretty good pops. But Iām planning to turbo my car so I didnāt bother with a header or cat work if Iām just going to be doing a turbo manifold in the future.
KW if you have money, Progress if you donāt. No exceptions.
Tein?
Let us see under the hood š what kit is that?
What he/she said
Valve adjustment may help simply because it forces you to check all the valve cover seals
If you want to remove the valve springs and retainers just to inspect the seal sure. Every k series Iāve delt with has excessive blow by on the rings to some extent. Donāt waste your time and money.
What? I'm talking about the seal on the cover itself. The rear side of it is hard to see so sometimes people don't realize they have a leak back there until they actually take the cover off
The valve cover leak shouldnt go unnoticed but I apologize I thought you were saying the valve stem seals
Wow didn't even realize that.
I wonder what the compression is at 150k because this thing seems pretty healthy have you done a compression test?
Iām just a redditor who would like to be shown the way also!
Uh new floor mats?
Taillight gaskets, motor mounts (passenger will go first) I know you said besides basic maintenance but id definitely recommend flushing the trans fluid.
Just replace them with new oem, oem is proven to last 10-15 years. The stiffer mounts will rattle your cabin so bad.
Honda oem mounts are known for being weak if you are launching your car any Iād recommend aftermarket mounts.
Iāve been running my CAI for the entire spring and summer months. Living in Kansas City the weather is super unpredictable and it pours unexpectedly some times but I havenāt had any issues with it. Of course Iām clutch in when I come across puddles or low points in the road and try to keep my rpm as low as possible so itās not such a strong vacuum. Also, I do have a injen hydro shield on my intake which definitely works wonders.
Love how the white looks from the outside. Almost makes up for the beige interior.
Almost. š
Damn I wish I didnāt have to have a front plate š¤© Iād call you my twin but I havenāt decided on the kiwamiās or not yet.
I just live with it. Did the hybrid racing full cmc and master cylinder + stainless line and it ever so slightly helped 3rd but Iād do the trans fluid first.
How was that upgrade though?
Doing it yourself not too bad. It technically eliminates the grind. Instead of the old -like pushing it further in to land the gear- it just pushes that little bit further itself. It did remove 2nd scrape, but gave me 6th. Itās just time for trans fluid for me.
Been thinking about doing it. I donāt have any grinds anymore but I wanna restore some clutch pedal feeling. Iāve got 192k and I just know itās not what it could be if that makes sense.
Gorgeous
You should do a K24 swap with a K20 head and oil pump.
Iām definitely considering it because of the mileage of my engine. I could get a k24a2 for $800. Entire swap would cost more than to replace my piston rings but itād be so much fun to drive. Iām not running hondata yet so Iād have to get the ball rolling on that if I wanted to swap.
How are the hasport mount I have them but I havenāt installed them yet.
Amazing I love them. Obviously with them being billet thereās gonna be more chassis vibration but it isnāt horrible and you can tell their quality. They look sporty too. Iāve gotten lots of comments on them.
Short throw shifter assembly
You can look at the fitment industries website to get a reference for the sizes and a good idea of what other people are looking at. If you look in the gallery on their website people upload their wheel setups.
Iām a YouTuber and I also do social media management. But yes living in Australia helps. Bought the r33 manual rb25det a few years back as a beater for $3.3k
The r33 you bought for 3.3k would probably triple the value in the states š„²
Itād be like 6x the value. I have a friend who bought the same spec for that price last year.
Itās ridiculous. I really wanna get into importing vehicles and selling them here but I donāt have the money to invest in that right nor not to mention the resources to do so.
Nice intercooler
Am I the only one who doesnāt know what this air freshener is? Lol

Is it supposed to provide a ājdmā scent? š
I would definitely recommend paying the āsalvage feeā if given the option. When my 3000gt was totaled I paid a $500 āsalvage feeā for the car to not go to the junkyard and I was allowed to keep it after getting my check for the totaled amount. I was able to part out a few parts and sell the shell for even more money than I got from the insurance company of the driver who totaled it.
Oh man what Iād give to have black interior š¤©
Stock trans, CC stage 3 clutch; With only doing freeway pulls the trans held up very well since it was never beat on, boosted for about 28k,
Iām worried that my trans wonāt hold up for boost. I think the 6 speed is perfect for the N/A engine but I also worry that with boost it will be a little weird.
Boost will prematurely wear your components down but if you change your fluid regularly, dont rip on it (excessively) you should be fine. I mean you will eventually have to rebuild it's just the nature of it, but theres no reason you shouldn't get some decent life out of it.
I mean an lsd would be pretty nice š is it worth it to rebuild instead of replace?
