Here I am to introduce to you a new member of the family.
My 2005 Magnesium Metallic Acura RSX Type-S!
She has 103,000km's on her and is in pretty good condition.

During the course of ownership, I will update the thread to show my progress throughout the build and progression as my Type-S transforms from stock to ROCKET.

In the meantime......Here are some pics when i picked her up....

Hey man, love the progress you are making! Does the Type-R rear caliper brackets use the same sized bolts to mount to the car as the Type-S? I just purchased some Type-R brembos but they didn't come with the rear bolts. I have contacted the seller. Because the pictures of the for sale Brembos I purchased has the bolts. Thanks
Thanks man..
Yes! you are able to bolt-on the rear calipers using the stock Type-S bolts
:fistbump:
Awesome! Thanks! I just dropped Brembos off to get rebuilt & painted.
