can you install all of the upgradable performance parts for the type s to the type r rsx? coz i'm waiting for the type r and want to start upgrading it as soon as i get it in my hands, not having to wait for parts? what do you think

Of course you can.
But there is one huge problem: We do not have high enough octane (100-RON) *readily* available in North America. The component needing this, of course, is the Type R motor.
You'd be looking at a shit load of money to convert everything. Here are just *some* of the different components
Interior
-------
Seats
Shift Knob
Shift Boot
Floor Mats
Exterior
--------
Rims/Tires
Front Lip
Side Skirts
Rear Valence
Rear Wing
Performance
----------
Complete Engine
Transmission, also including LSD, clutch, flywheel.
Brakes
You'd also have to change the suspension I'm sure.

Ditto. The only way we will get the Type R is if Type S sales suck ass. From the amount of Rsx Type s's I am seeing...dont hold your breathe for the r. Maybe 2004......................MAYBE!!!!
