open diffs suck, FWD or not, traction control helps a shizzload in bad weather

 

Yeah if you're going to make it a project car I wouldn't bother with a new vehicle and a warranty.

 

yeah i might look for a slightly used model if there any, kinda hard to find a used type-s that isnt over price(found couple that they want 22K, which is crazy)

 

If you're going to be turboing a car and such, it would be a helluva lot simpler to get something that comes with a turbo. The amount of money you'd spend on a TSX and the associated turbo crap (and nobody makes a kit for it) would buy you a nice brand new Mitsubishi EVO or something.

 

used WRX!!

that is all

 

yeah...but the big thing is i dont really like the style of the evo nor the wrx

i guess look is more important to me, the styling of the evo and wrx stand out too much for me, where everyone wanna race because i got a evo or wrx. i want something not so noticable i guess
dont get me wrong i like to go fast but not racing. more like open back road and zipping along doing my own thing. plus i wanna try to modify a car, kinda like a hobby :dunno:

i'm 80% sure im gonna get the rsx...instead of buying the tsx i save 3-4G for turbo

 

I say WRX because I like the "twisties". Something about driving fast in corners is just a huge rush for me. I don't wanna drift, that's a bit too dangerous, and I don't think I could ever have the skill to do it properly. But I wanna get slammed against my door panel going through a corner. It's just a complex I have.

 

a bit risky with those transmission problems though. For the amount he's spending he may be better of with a new one since they may have made the transmission stronger for the '03 model.
