Very nice!! Really wish I had given the RSX-S more attention when I was looking in Fall of 01 - might have ended up with that instead.
Anyway, the RPF1s are going to be powdercoated a honey gold color (gold with some orange in it). Got the idea from the Hybrid Racing oil cap I had picked up this fall. Need to do something to add some interest to a black car.

Can I/should I size up at all in the rear to a 255/40/17? Granted that the rears are 8.5 inches wide. . . is there any benefit to running 255 as opposed to 245? Oh what do any of you guys have any experience with Hankook Ventus V12's at all? If so how did you like them and how long did they last?

Sorry about that! didn't mean to go off topic. I have 235/40/18 front and 245/40/18 rear and I'm happy with the traction for daily driving. Even with aggressive driving I only get minimal wheel spin from 1st to 2nd gear shift. But thats because I have cheap all season tires.

Tommy- I used to regret selling the rsx at first. But now when I compare the 2 cars stock for stock the c230 seems better in every way

Its been awhile But recently broke my front splitter after smacking into a piece of debris on the freeway. . . was a sad day since it also cracked my oil pan :mess: But all is good now and I had the time to do a little modification over the past couple days. Its not much but any new mod is better than nothing :p

Day I broke it


Cutting and sanding


Visualizing


Mounted :excited:


Finished Product


On top of all this I got some new tires! Hankook Ventus V12's Feels great!
