Got me another K powered ride...might look familiar to some.

Post by luvmyhondas »

2002 RSX-S. SSM with Black. @143K miles. Needs some TLC, a bigger fuel system, and retuned. She's almost ready for the road after an exhaust repair, new tires (215/50/16), and getting the bumper covers repaired/spruced up.

I originally bought it to rape the swap for my 97 hatch, but after driving it a little bit and takeing a closer look at the condition I've decided to keep it (for now).

The day I brought it home:

for those not familiar with the car, here's an underhood:

Hopefully the bumpers will be done Saturday and I can put it back together.

Future plans include (in no particular order):

Upgrade fuel system to return style using a Walbro 255LPH hi-pressure pump, -6AN lines, Aeromotive FPR, and R-Crew fuel rail (thrown in with car purchase).

Retune...I wonder how much power this thing will make?

RBC manifold (I've got one already)

Rear Camber arms from Ingalls or SPC

Raise it up a bit with either different springs or go with a full body coilover setup.

larger and wider wheels to get more rubber on the road...not going to stretch a 205 onto a 8 inch wheel or anything.

remove silver interior trim kit

build blockoffs or something for the (now empty) foglight holes in front bumper...

DBA slotted rotors/Hawk HPS pads in front, Powerslot rotors/Hawk HPS in rear

fix the Power steering and sticky shifter action.

and I'm sure much more that won't matter to anyone but me.
