  2. Bolt-On Basics: RSX Type-S
    hey guys, i was wondering where you guys buy your exhaust systems. because my piping under my car hangs real low for some reason. im sure there has to be a reason for this because if ya can slam your car and not scrape, then theres someting wrong with mine. i even bought a new piping system and...
  3. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Bare with me as Im R nub. But lately I began hearing what sounds like metal scraping coming from my driver front wheel well. Not solely when breaking, in fact not at all when breaking but just to be safe after searching around the net I checked my rotors and break pads. Rotors are smooth and...
  4. Problems & Solutions RSX
    This happens mostly when i am in reverse and use the brake on a downhill slope. I also hear some mild scraping when i am driving slow. I did some searching and i found that some people may think this is a wheel bearing. I also have my ABS light on. Any help would be appreciated. :)
  5. Problems & Solutions RSX
    There is a random scraping sound coming from somewhere towards the back of my car. I say random because it doesn't happen at ny time in particular like when I am turning or going over something bumpy or when I'm accelerating. It just does it at random times. It kind of sounds like metal scraping...

    whenever I'm driving 2 miles an hour or 40 mph, i hear this scraping noise coming from the front of my car. the sound doesnt seem like its getting louder but its pretty consitent. I however, dont hear it when i'm driving fast in the highway. on the other hand, when I put my car in reverse, I...
  7. Wheels & Tires
    Largest size tires for 18" TL A spec rims and A spec suspension without scraping? So I currently have springs with approximately a 2 to 2.5 inch drop and my 225/40/18 Michelin's scrap a little bit on very tight turns:noes:...typically pulling into a parking space. I will be putting an A spec...
  8. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I've been searching the whole day and can't find my answer so that's why I'm starting this thread. So, I maxed out my ksport coilovers and also removed a perch so I'm pretty low. I adjusted my front camber to be more negative but not at max. Can't really tell you the degrees because I did all...
  9. Problems & Solutions RSX
    My car has been squeaking like crazy. It does not have a continuous squeak, but goes "squeak, squeak, squeak" and stops the moment I press the brake pedal. I have changed the pads, and cleaned the calipers. Still no change. Any ideas anyone?

  11. Problems & Solutions RSX
    When I am driving I can hear a faint scraping metallic sound coming from my engine. It sometimes stops but then will start again. I had this same problem I believe on my last car which was a neon. I'm thinking its the clutch or flywheel. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
  12. Suspension, Chassis & Brakes
    I got a used type s and the rear wheels are make a metal scraping noise at slow speeds and in reverse. I had the dealer look at it and they said the noise is from aftermarket brake pads and the pads are at 90% life. Are they BSing me or is it possible its from just having aftermarket pads. Is...

    Anyone ever had a problem with their dust shield rubbing up on the rotors and making a scraping noise? ..I've had it for a few days and kind of just bend it a lil' back from the rotor..so far the noise is gone...*keeps fingers crossed*
  14. Problems & Solutions RSX
    The downside of installing multiple mods at the same time: troubleshooting problems can be harder to pinpoint. I installed CAI, IMG, ITR header/downpipe w/ '02 Civic EX front sway, shifter bushings, greddy evo II and reflash at the same time. I now notice a scraping sound when there's a load...
  15. Problems & Solutions RSX
    So recently I've been hearing this noise coming from my right front wheel area. It sounds like metal on metal rubbing. It doesn't sound too harsh of a scratching, but it won't stop unless I brake or jerk the wheel to the right. It starts up when I go over bumps in the road or take gradual left...

    does anyone know if that long middle pipe of the exhaust, forgot what its called but it connects the headers to the muffler, a downpipe?, hangs lower than the rest of the car for a stock exhaust system? i was wondering if i get a new exhaust system, will it be tucked in and wont be in the way of...
  17. Exterior Mods RSX
    Im getting my greddy lip painted this week and have been thinking about the potential nightmare of scraping. I got my ride at stock height and am thinking about maybe some thin slices on sheet metal underneath the bottom part of the lip for any scrapes. I dont think ill have any problems but...
