Are those Type S rims on that red prelude? What are you dropped on? and finally what kind of camera is that, the coloring is beautiful in your pictures.

Yep, type-s rims on a lude.. looks good too. I am dropped on Tein S Techs, no funds for full coilovers.. The camera was my brother's, I think it was called CoolPix or something like that, the first pic I think was from another guy here in MN, and I photoshopped the shit out of the other ones to clean them up a bit.

Amp was the Beta design for the series - and it was designed and constructed to fit on the rear hatch floor between the wheel wells in my `94 Integra (and it was a tight fit). Was I glad it fit in the RSX! Did not want to have to buy / build another amp!

Thump shit in the back, I see !

Top pic rules ! That darker silver, that gunmetal silver color rocks ! If I didn't have the alabaster silver, I would/could have stuck to a more silver color to my wheels. As it was, the wheels matching the paintjob was just something I wanted to change. WIth your color, the wheels look good !

I really want the chrome wheels that were shown on the `05 concept car:



Chrome split spoke - but they are not available.

As to the Thumper in the back - Even with the Amp cranked UP - you can't hear shit outside of the car! The rear hatch window will move in time to the bass but you will not hear anything outside of the car. The door and rear seat speakers are completely isolated from the door - and there is a lot of sound damping in the rear hatch! It's all clean, solid sound in my ride!

No "HoodBoiHomeys" in my car!

Repeated calls to Acura - both CA and Japan - have netted the same answer "Wheels not available for anyone to buy. Cannot contact wheel vendor - custom wheel, not allowed to be sold!"
