i didn't know quebec club or whatever took pictures of my car!

i still have the stock motor and tranny if anybody wants it!

unfortunately, nobody's gonna see the car until next season
and by then i'll have more surprises

some of my old parts will be up for sale soon, as they will be replaced
(front and back rsx leathers, ground control coils, custom trunk, etc...)

I wonder where the 'donor' car came from.....

Buying from OEM would cost more than the price of a new RSX-S.... i.e. who's willing to part with MINT RSX-S leather seats??? (Not to mention mint RSX-S rims, complete 5 lug conversion, etc... I'm not bitchin', just confused....

That's REAL clean tho.... No weld marks or greasy fingerprints anywhere
