  1. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hey I have a 2002 rsx type s and I need some help. I feel like my car doesn't pull like a rsx type s should. I did a pull on second and shift to third and I literally had the gas pedal all the way floored and the car was barely pulling at all. I had the problem happening for a while so I change...
  2. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Like the title says, my RSX has pulled to the right since I bought it (used). I took it in for an alignment and they said that they did all that they could for the alignment but the pull was caused by a bent front right control arm as well as a slightly bent frame. I found what looks to be the...

    02 Type S with a Civic Si LSD. The car goes very straight when coasting, but under any load/acceleration the car pulls to the left. The pulling left gets worse when accelerating at a faster rate. This isn't like torque-steer issues. Example: driving on the highway (65mph) in 6th gear, if I...

    Did a DIY strut replacement followed all tutorials and rsx manual. After alignment from shop everything came out green and the mechanic tells us our tires are the problem. It there a way I check if I screwed anything up? I can tell you the only thing i missed to do was raising the car on both...

  8. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I have a 2002 rsx type s and I was woundering what CEL codes would put it into limp mode because I couldn't go above 4k rpms, but when I shut my car off and turned it back on I was able to go all the way, but around 7-8k rpms it feels like I'm not getting anything as if I'm not getting enough...

    My car was pulling right with my 17's on. Put on my 15's and car pulled left. Got a alignment done and still pulls left. I'm gonna check tire pressure tonight. If that doesn't work I'll swap the front two tires and see if it pulls still. My question is. Can u get a bad alignment job

  11. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I'll try my best to explain this in text... When I got my rsx (about 2 months ago) the previous owner said there was a bushing missing from the subframe. The guy said it just pops when you turn the wheel (which it does sometimes.) All was fine until a few weeks ago. Now, the car will make a...
  12. Bolt-On Basics: RSX (Base)
    Background on car. 2005 Auto RSX w/185k+. CAI, Hondata IMG, and street tuned with Kpro (thanks to josolanes for dealing with my questions). Per Honda my cams and rockers are worn and it will cost me about $1150 to replace. Perfect time to do a swap right.... So I have a good price on a K24a2 so...
  13. Problems & Solutions RSX
    So last summer I had baseball sized hail attack my car and I've been looking into different PDR techniques. The glue pulling method looks to be easiest so far, from what I've been researching. I know for sure that the hood is beyond repair and will need to be replaced, but I want to try to get...
  14. The DIY Garage RSX
    How hard is it to pull the motor from the top of the car? Would I just need to take off the mounts, axels and header and other small stuff?
  15. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I recently had an alignment done today and before the car would pull to the left and the steering wheel acura symbol would point between 1 and 2 oclock. Now after the alignment the acura A symbol is between 12 and 1 but more towards 1 oclock. I noticed that the car still pulls to the left. The...

    Whats up CubRSX. I'm pulling my tranny to replace my rear main seal. While its pulled what else should I replace? I had my clutch replaced about 6 months ago and just put an exedy oem style clutch but forgot to replace other things while it was pulled. My tranny has 140k miles on it. Any...
