Depends... which DC5 trim are you talking about? The Type-S, Type-R, or the 5-speed?

DC5 is the super elite JDM way of talking about an RSX.

so does that JDM Honda badge also come with the following so once you put it on, it becomes an Integra R?

NTERIOR
*RECARO Front Bucket Seats (Black, Blue, Red)
*3 spoke MOMO leather steering wheel (360mm Red Stitched)
*Suade Rear Seats
*Aluminum Pedal Covers
*Aluminum Footrest cover
*Bushed Aluminum 6SPD Shift ****
*Coin Pocket
*Floor Carpet (Red, Blue, Black)
*Type R Embroided Floor Mats
*Different Center Console with Type R Emblem
*Red Stitched Shift Boot
*4 metallic Sport gauges (with illuminations control and Type R Illuminated letters)



EXTERIOR
*HID Headlights
*No Sunroof
*Black Housing Headlights
*Front Chin Spoiler
*Bigger Side Skirts
*Rear Lip
*Rear Wing
*Sidemarker Lights
*Type R Emblems/Decals (Rear Hatch, Side Panels)
*Brake Cooling vents with Ducts bottom of front bumper in place of Fogs Lights
*Paint Matched Front Grilled
*Type R exclusive 17 inch 10 Spoke Wheels with Red H Center cap (Gunmetal/Champ White)



ENGINE
*220 HP K20A
*Red engine head cover
*Redline 8400rpm
*Large diameter exhaust pipe

TRANSMISSION
*6 SPD Transmission with taller Final Drive (Same as USDM CRV 5 SPD 05-06 USDM RSX have the same Final Drive)
*Carbon Synchros
*Lightened Flywheel
*Helical LSD reacting torque


SUSPENSION
*Aluminum Front Lower Control Arms
*Hard suspension setting
*Front strut tower bar

CHASSI
*Aluminum Bumper Beams (Front/Rear)
*Aluminum Floor Crossing Beam



BRAKES
*Front 'Brembo' brakes (300mm ventilated disc & aluminum 4pot caliper)



But I'm sure the RSX owner would never put that red Honda badge without acquiring these JDM items first, I'm 99.9 % sure...

Dude, what are you talking about? lots of people put the Honda badge on in lieu of the Acura. Everywhere else in the world the RSX is sold, it's badged a Honda. I also don't see anywhere that the car is claiming to be an R.

It's better than the ******** that put efini badges on their 8's.

Dude that is one sick photograph. And yeah chill out man it's technically a honda, and the H badge looks way better than the Acura one anyway.

Couldn't agree more.


But still, RSX Type S just isn't the machine the Integra Type R is.
And if the owner indeed, doesn't claim it to be an Integra Type R, wouldn't that also be misleading, because it is better than just a standard Integra overseas?
I don't know why you're defending rice.
I usually ignore ricey mods, but the "JDM" badges are just too much IMO.
You guys also okay with Silva badges on 240SXs?

I was under the impression that the USDM Integra Type R is pretty much the same as the JDM Integra R (previous generaton) mechanically? I mean other than left hand drive.

Plus, I'd rather have an Integra Type R than a RSX-S, just my opinion though.

I agree... the Honda badge on a stock usdm rsx is dumb. You bought an acura; nothing wrong with that.
