  3. General RSX Discussion
    hi guys, this is my first post so don’t go too hard on me. I currently own a 05’ Acura RSX Base Auto. The previous owner swapped the original motor with a 02 base auto motor. Does that mean that he had to swap out the ecu for the different engine? Or do you think he kept the original ECU...

    K24/k20 swap on rsx. I’m installing the catalytic converter and it doesn’t seem to fit. The engine is some inches away high. I’ve forced it but now I don’t have clearance. The catalytic hits the top of the shield. What am I doing wrong?
