I've seen a few TSXs on Vancouver CL with JDM parts/badges, but I admit I've never seen one in the flesh. Rebadged Integra R, on the other hand, all the time (both NA-spec DC2s and RSXs)

About a year ago I found a listing on the Toronto Kijiji site for an RHD DC5 (2001 model year I think) with 85,000 km on the clock. They were asking $29,995.

Holy shit. And I thought the local CL listings that ask $10-12k for an S15 was outrageous. I kind of don't blame people here for rebadging NA-spec RSXs to avoid the Paul Walker Tax. I bet it was Grade R/RA (or had a doctored odometer) too

Found this in my RS Summer Meet 2013 album. This was back when I thought filters were cool and I didn't know how to take pics of cars.

Saw an RSX with DC5 Integra R badges NB on Boundary at Lougheed around 1:45 this afternoon. I was driving so I couldn't take a photo. I wanted to die inside

It's just sitting in the garage now till the weather gets better and till I have time. It's going to be a slow restoration.

I ended up buying a JDM bumper and side skirts from the 1998 JDM ITR

I can not stand it, i am downgrading my FK8 Type R brake pads.
the natural brake sequel is driving me nuts. i am trying to use it as a daily.

maybe i will save the pads for track days.

I tried bedding them as much as possible.


I know it is very common in PORSCHE


but i would probably get something like this.

I flew both times. Flew to Orlando and then caravaned up to Virginia International Raceway with a group of attendees for Expo 8. For Expo 9, I flew to a buddies house who lived in Chicago and then we drove about 1.5 hours to Jolliett to the racetrack.

That's probably why you are averaging 6.7L/100km.....gotta drive and brake harder hahaha!!

Joke aside, the brake squeal is noticeably louder when it's colder out. Today was relatively warm and mine definitely was much quieter.

Trying to get the car back to stock. The only mod was an intake. Is the stock intake type r specific? Or will a GSR or non vtec intake one the same?

Here is the current state. Car was quite dirty when i got it and lots of contaminants in it. The clay bar got quite a bit of it off.
