That would of have been really tough. I would of actually paid attention to a R33. Very nice trade if condition is good.

It might be ok for a trip around town, but if your friend is going to race the car then there will most likely be problems.
very well said bro!!

RSX Type S arent that great on boost... stock internals and 350whp is pushing it... high compression ftl. If you where talking about an SRT-4 then 350whp is easy but then again good luck hooking up a 350whp Type S with no LSD even... and if you made 350whp the total bill would not be 17,000 anymore... more like $24,000. The figures for boosting where put out there and it ain't cheap.

That's a rather ignorant statement. You have obviously never driven a set up FWD car on the track.

Anyways, it usually always comes down to driving ability. I was at Streets of Willow(in my Honda) this weekend and passed two ARIEL ATOMS on the track. My car is quick and highly modded, but they should have been toying w/ me...
