I apologize in advance for the long post, as well as the vague title, the problem im having is going to take some explanation and i want to provide as much information as i can. The car is a Base 2003 RSX automatic w/ 178k miles (i dont need the rhetoric, im aware I should have got a 5 speed)...

I've owned 2 RSX base models with the automatic trans and have had the motor pulled on both. After putting it back in and having everything double checked by a shop this issue is yet to be diagnosed or fixed. While driving the car won't acknowledge my upshift inputs and will linger in gear. It...

I have 2003 Acura RSX Base Automatic (USA) model. My car was throwing OBD code P0420 which indicated inefficiency with Catalytic Converter. I decided to change it along with both O2 sensors. I purchased following upstream sensor for my car which is: Denso Air-Fuel Ratio Sensor 4 Wire, Direct...

I've tried searching for a solution to some problems but no luck...was hoping someone could help out. A. So lately my key gets stuck and will out release I unless move the car forward and reverse a few times...if lucky only once. B. When I move from "P" to "D" or any other position, I hear...

Hello everyone, I'm stuck at the beach since last night when I tried putting in a kill switch, using tutorials I'd found online. Novice at best with electronics and automobiles, but I learn quick and can listen to direction. I cut the wrong black/ yellow(IG1) wire coming out of main relay trying...

Hi, how do you guys use the sports shift on the Acura rsx and any tips on downshifting?

Hi everyone. I am Tahari and I am new to this. I have this 2004 RSX for 7 years now with 216K miles. It is very reliable, clean exterior and interior, and no leaks. One thing I didn't like about it is the brakes. It takes too long to stop. I replaced all 4 rotors and new pads including 4...

I want to turbo a JDM Automatic dc5 type S 2005, but don’t know where to start. i know I’d have to do something with the tranny but I have no idea what. And also do I need a tuned ECU and if so where would I find one for this car (I can find base model RSX ecu with ktuner but they’re all USDM...

Does the NZDM DC5 automatic Type S (05-06) use the same ECU as the American RSX type S (which only comes in manual), or the same ECU as the American base model RSX (which comes in manual and auto). I also don’t know if the New Zealand type s is a k20a2 or k20a3

car started fine this morning, hit reverse to pull out from parking spot slowly, fine. WHen i changed to drive i felt a big jolt. drove off fine for about 7miles. started to sputter a bit then it got worse. now it wont go past 10/15mph in drive or reverse. When I hit the gas it just revs up, but...

Just bought a mishimoto trans fluid cooler, does anyone know which hose flows in the trans and which flows out of the trans so I know which direction to face the cooler, I figured it would be smarter to put the trans fluid out of trans line on top and trans fluid into trans on bottom because of...

Looking to do a head swap on my 06 Acura RSX Base. I heard that the K20A2 head will bolt right on to the K20A3 but the ECU will need to be changed. My RSX is automatic and I'm wondering if a Type-S ECU will work. Also, would it be better to run a K-Pro ECU rather than a Type-S ECU? Thanks!

First things first, I have an automatic 03 base rsx. One day I was driving and switching between manual mode and automatic mode. Long story short, I was stopped at a red light waiting for the green light so that I can turn left. When it did turn green I stepped on the gas to proceed, I thought I...

Clean title. Low miles! Mostly garaged. Very well-maintained. No smokers, no pets, no messy kids, and no in-car eating or drinking. New tires, front brake pads, etc. Full maintenance records. I've taken care of every niggling Acura issue that's come up. This car should go for a very long time...

Plan on boosting my 05 automatic base model w a new intake and exhaust... my question is what should i NOT get for an intake? Are cold airs a bad idea since its auto? Stick with short ram? I’m not looking for the fastest car, just a little boost while keeping the longevity. Thanks Sent from my...

Hi everyone, I know your going to trash talk to the Automatic please do so, but I bought a Greddy Turbo system (used) and want to get this installed. The only problem is that I need K-Pro to make the shit work and K-Pro is used for Manuel Transmissions only. I know there is a way to convert it...
