Me gusta ver que aunque el RSX esté en pésima condiciones estéticamente hablando aun así te diviertes con el auto😅👍🏼
Always good to see more miguel content. In other news pretty sure i finally figured out the oil leak on the 3000gt. Dam oil galley plug sitting right above the rear main housing was clearly leaking oil and was so loose im surprised it didn't fall out. Then broke off a pressure plate bolt into the aluminum flywheel, But i got that sorted out pretty quick. Good thing i had extractors. Liking the new content with the rsx its different ,but atleast you have a stupid amount of aftermarket support. Far better than any mitsubishi lol.

@@MiguelDsm im pretty sure its the issue. Nice little puddle of oil in the hole for the plug and you can trace the oil all over and around the rear main housing. And its one of those. Duh!, pretty sure I never checked that plug since the block came from the machine shop. Since they were supposed to do that as part if the hot tanking procedure then boring it.

Unpopular opinion: the blue looks nice... me personally would not change the color, I would just paint match the rest 💯 Edit: If I were to wrap it... I'd go for a similar color to what the paint is so when you look at the door gaps, under the trunk, strut towers, etc it almost looks like paint instead of a wrap 🤷♂️
It might need a valve adjustment k series always have tight valves that cause the p0300 code I’m pretty sure it’ll take care of the rest of the misfire codes

All codes went away at the end of the video. It ended up being the 02 sensor causing the air fuel mixture to run out of wack
Thank God it's getting done right. Yasss Denso oxygen sensor is is the only brand aside OEM that works best on Honda, NGK iridium's (excellent choice) K20/24 does recommend 5w 20 Synthetic blend oil I use Mobil one personally,Honda knock sensor always best. On a full tune up id spend a few bucks and replace the air filter, run some sea foam in your gas tank the next 3-4 fill ups, even in your oil 100 miles before your next oil change just to clean out any junk in the system...She sounds pretty good , glad someone is bringing it back to life...

@@MiguelDsm depends how it's used, I ran a full can with each fill up for a month in my K24 Accord and it runs great. I think it's only bad when people pour it in the oil and leave it in there...
Slowly but surely. What would be cool is if you go to Advanced Auto and have em make a spray can custom to your paint code (yeah they do that) and you could just tape off the side and do a diy priner/ paint project on the quarter. That'd be cool to see.

if you ever want to change up the exhaust, you should use vibrant bottle style resonator and either a twin loop muffler or megan racing m spec II muffler. i would stay away from yonaka for the rsx and the ep3, the resonator portion welds will break even with oem cat, also don’t get rid of the cat or if you decide to, put a vibrant ultra quiet resonator in place of the cat. i have a video of my eg civic on my channel

I’m thinking the cat might be shot on this one. It still wreaks like gas after the 02 sensor replacement
I've seen another video about the brembo brake swap. From what I remember the guy used s2000 front rotors to avoid using the spacer. I recommend you look into that to avoid stressing the studs. However, I'm not too sure about the legitimacy of that.

Do you know if the o2 sensor would work for an 03 base rsx? I heard the type s and base are interchangeable but not to sure about the year
Definitely do hybrid racing detent springs and gear selectors spring well worth the money

A daily driver should be reliable, good looking enough on the eye but not care about dents or scratches, easy to work on, cheap on maintenance, cheap to fill the gas tank and fuel efficient, easy to get in and out (for those hard days of work), good visibility looking out, fun to drive but not fast, roomy enough to carry your stuff and possibly spend a night, small wheel base for easy driving in the city
