EK hatch, ITR motor + bolt ons = RSX killer.

forgot to mention i'm planning to mod the rsx also, but it gonna take me atleast half a year after getting it to start modding it.
planning to build up the internal and boost it, and lots of supensions and stopping power upgrade.

I voted for the RSX-S.

sure you could do what Local Racer said, but you still wouldn't have the comforts and style of an RSX. you'd be just another of the millions of hybrid hatches out there. Dime a dozen. Boosting an RSX, while not unheard of, is definently more respectable than a hatch.

nope not yet, while not for the rsx yet.

i got pretty decent insurance rate for my age (20):
house insurance $750/per year
94 del sol si $840/6 month full coverage 250 deduct.
02 civic ex $740/6 month full coverage 250 deduct.
(thats what im paying right now)

Edit: the del sol is for my girl to drive and the civic ex is for my mom, but they under my insurance policy

they quote me for the 03 cbr600rr for 1500/year full coverage 250 deduct, but i might could get it cheaper after my tickets clear (end of the year) and when i hit 21(may) i think
