This is sad....

Just did a quick check on Neuspeed's site and they are already making so many parts for the RSX like header and rear sway bars...and the RSX is out for what...not even half a year. Not that I'm interested to buy any of them but it shows aftermarket companies are not that interested in our car. To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

heh. yeah...

but u gotta realize that the RSX, though on the same platform as the 7th gen Civic, is geared towards performance, unlike our Civic, or even ur EL. makes more sense to make performance parts for a performance sport car than an economy car.

I know I know....but &lt;sigh&gt;....

The last vic gets so many parts cuz it is VERY similar to the teg...so parts are interchangable and companies only need to develops one part to get both markets. Things are not quite the same for us....

I love the RSX too but.........

I don't love the extra $10,000

.....plus.....when I bought my CIVIC I knew the RSX would be rolling up next to me in a few moths, but my Integra was stolen and I needed a car.

You know what else sucks.....

If you have a RSX all you need to do is buy JDM Japan parts....

Like.....Type R valve cover, headlights, header, intake manifold, pistons, cams....I have a whole catalog of the stuff.
