actually, it is a cold air intake. look it up if u don't think so. i guarantee i'm right. u had no mods on your 05 and mine has lots of mods. 15,000 obo, means just that. if you don't think 15,000 sounds fair, then shoot me an offer that you think is. i'm mainly on here to see if someone wants to trade their g though. that's why i posted it on g35. i have it just for sale on clubrsx.

Your AEM V2 sits in the engine bay soaking up heat especially since the filter sits right on the block, and to make it worse, it's all the way in the back, far from any air coming in. You're actually losing more power than anything with that intake. It really takes a sucker to buy into the marketing hype calling that POS intake a "cold air intake"

im just saying, you are going to have better luck parting out and selling your car stock. and according to your first post, you really dont have that many mods on the car....none of them are going to increase the value of the car. you're selling an 03 with 73k miles on it for $15,000? Are you kidding me? that car is worth MAYBE 10,000...KBB your car stock...add the "mods" you have on the car currently and come up with another price....$15,000 is unrealistic. IF you get someone to buy it for that price, more power to you....from the sound of it, it was prob beaten to hell when it was turbocharged.

everybody has the economy against them. my car gets great gas milage with the sport car aspect. g35's don't. i was just seeing if anyone wants to make a deal. i'm going to iraq in 4 weeks and i want to build a g when i get back. so, i have plenty of time to figure this out. just testing the waters. thanks for your input guys. i'm always up for suggestions.
G35 Gas Mileage 17/24 (city/highway)
Both take premium (www.fueleconomy.gov)
20 gallon tank, will save you MAX 80 miles or 6 dollars per full tank. Not really a big difference at all.
And did you say the RSX has a sport car aspect and the G35 doesn't?
No wrong wheel drive car is a sports car. I sold my RSX for my G35 and no offense but it is better in every aspect. Someone would be crazy to trade a G35 for a RSX.

it wasn't beat up at all. the otiginal transmission was never used with the turbo'd motor and it has a never turbo'd k20a2 in it now. i'm leaving for iraq on friday and just don't have the time to take everything off. my car is worth 12,000 at the least stock and i would be fine if someone bought it stock for that much.

well, thank goodness that not everyone has your opinion and preference on cars as you. there are many people that wouldn't trade their rsx for a g35. that's just your opinion. i'm there with you though because i want a g35 also. i'm done with front wheel drive. i had fun with that car, but it's time to move on to rear wheel drive like i'm used to.

RSX exhaust 500 / G35 exhaust 1500
RSX tires 600 / G35 tires 1200
RSX turbo 4000 / G35 turbo 8000
ect, but it is worth it man

i just saw your for sale threads on clubrsx...you arent even selling it on that forum for $15,000. AND you have yet to provide anyone with pictures. From the looks of it, you really dont know how much to sell any of your stuff for since you claim that everyone is "low balling" you. Get your facts straight, figure out how much **** is worth before you start posting what YOU want to get for stuff...its just not realistic.
im not tryin to be a dick, just trying to be realistic...it took a few months for me to sell my car STOCK for $16K and my car was newer, had less miles, and was prob in better condition than yours.
Ill put it into perspective for you some more... here's a fellow Ohioan who is trying to sell his car. Its an 03 PWP with about 10K more miles than yours. He has mods on it, prob of equal value of your mods....and he is STILL having trouble selling it for $10000.

good luck.

well, you're crazy if you think my car's worth only 10,000. kbb is 13,000 in the actual book not the internet one. you are low balling yourself if you go off of the online kbb. you got low balled on your acura. it's worth 16,250 with the online kbb and 17,500 with the actual kbb hard copy.
