okay i currently have a 2002 acura RSX type S that is turbo. i need to replace the turbo becuz the seals wit out on me... should i keep the RSX and buy a new turbo for it or move on to a S2000?

 

Well the RSX is a great car i was going to get that before my S2K but i got the s2k because i love this car and i know that the rsx turbo is faster then the s2k but if u spend some cash on the s2k u might get it to run low 13's or get a supercharger and run 12's with good tires so its more of ur choise and one more thing u only get 2 seets in the s2k so u might need to think about that also.

 

s2000!

 

Turbo RSX is undoubtably faster than a stock s2k but the sk2 is a superior car and a boosted s2k is a different whole different animal.

 

How about you get the best of both worlds with a turbo S2000. I love RSX's and think that they are great cars, but I can't stand the FWD, especially when the car is making some power. I am biased towards RWD so I would say go with the S2K, but that must be tough coming from a turbo car. Good luck with whatever choice you decide to go with.

 

RWD > FWD turbo or not

 

Well this is really funny because I also had an 02 rsx type s that was boosted at 7 psi. Even at that boost it was faster than my S2K but I think this car has so much more potential in the long run and it's RWD and once you get past like 350hp in FWD it's not really usualble power anymore. Plus RWD is so much fun especially in autoX. I miss my type s but I would trade it for my S2K anyday.

 

hmm sounds like i need me a S2k

 

i woul;d say get the s2k as well. I went from a rsx to a s2k and never regreted it. Granted it wasnt boosted, but it sounds like you are willing to modify a car either way so I say go ahead and mod a s2k. Good luck with the decision though.

It really comes down to your needs....do you need back seats....do you need good gas mileage.....do you need extra payments.....





think about it.....
