Default Photoshoot session with an RSX-S (lotta pics)

Was a nice day today so I called up my friend and decided to take some pics. Just a quick session though as we were losing light and my cam was dying... really didnt feel like moving the cars in different spots.









































Enjoy

Gonna try and get some pics with my other friends and their cars (06 V6 Stang, 96 A4 1.8T, 04 1.8T GTI) which coincidentally... are all black.

Sweet pics. Where is that? It looks so familiar but I can't put my finger on it.
Those rims 19s?

I was actually thinking of a similar combo with my CSM. Now I'm definitely gona go with it. is that Gunmetal and SSM?

just an FYI the japanese plate is an authentic japanese government issued illuminated plate.

Yes they are 19s and they are gunmetal, and SSM is correct, 05 model.

KINGxOFxSKA, yes, it is JDM, as Acura RSXs are Honda Integras in Japan, couldnt tell by your "tone" if you knew that or not, but sorry it doesnt appeal to you.

Any other questions or comments are welcome

I figured you did, but you never know

I don't mind people trying to JDM their rides, as long as they use the right parts, and their cars are available in japan. People here try to turn their cars into bBs and Ist's often, more power to em.

I don't expect everyone to like both cars, actually, my friend's post on his www.clubrsx.com forum inversely mirrors this one ;)

in japan the acura rsx = honda integra

people put honda logos and stuff on their car to give it a jdm look or feel (hence his plate)

What Rims are those? Any rubbing issues? Because I really like them. And how do they hold up with our roads?

They're R-1 Racing GTR-10's 19x7.5 et 40 in gunmetal and wrapped in Nitto Neo Gens 215/35/19 and slammed on Tein S-techs. The only time I ever rub is if I hit a dip in the road at highway speeds, even with a full load of 5 people and two subs in the back I don't rub if I drive normally. They have held up pretty damn well for Long Island roads, sadly I've hit potholes big enough to make both side mirrors and my rearview to knock loose from their settings but the rim was fine.

*edit*

All my friends' cars are the enemy

Heres a failed blurry nighttime shot that I even lightened up in photoshop, only thing missing is a modded black 96 1.8T A4, have another friend with a modded black 96 Prelude v-tec but he's not really one of the boys.
