Watched all the RSX videos. Cool! Just rebought my 2002 RSX from high school and will be fixing it up. Will use a lot of your tips!

[@ProjectCarMedia]

Awesome! Congrats on getting your RSX back! Thanks for watching!

Turned out nice Josh, great job. I think your pricing sound about right and hopefully you get lots of interest on it. While I will miss the videos, I understand all to well how life can interrupt the best of plans.

Thanks Jon! Glad my pricing isn’t too far off lol.

[@ProjectCarMedia]

I sold it to a local 200SX enthusiast. He’s been modding it more from what I hear!

I'm not sure you'll be able to get $7,000 for it if it has 300,000 miles. I bought mine at a dealership with 107,000 miles back in early 2021 for $8900 all said and done. Granted, the car market has changed and the value of these cars has gone up even higher, I would think you will most likely only break even on this investment. I hope I'm wrong!!!! 300,000 miles is a lot; however, even a car with such a strong engine such as the K20a2 might be approaching the end of its life. I absolutely loved this content. The restoration was amazing and I hope someone gets a lot of joy from the car very soon. Take care.

Thank you for the feedback and thank you for watching! I hope you’re wrong too haha. I figured with all of the new parts I installed and the engine running so well (I’m thinking it only has 200k gentle running miles) that I could get close to $7k. I have had about 6 or 7 people offer trades so far so we’ll see!

Nah its got plenty of life as long as it was properly maintained. My rsx type s has over 350k miles. I expect to get to 500k. Oh and still on the stock clutch

[@ProjectCarMedia]

@@geoff0707 Geesh 350k!? That’s awesome!!

[@Meanthonyv]

Spent too much on bs.. should have spent the minimum knowing the miles were so high. these cars sell them selves long as they run good .

[@ProjectCarMedia]

Thanks for watching. I ended up selling it for what I had into it so it worked out in the end!
