whats up guys im new to the acura rsx world and am currently looking to fix up an rsx i picked up. I currently have a 03 base rsx with k20a3. car also came with a k20a2 engine in the deal. The A3 is what is currently on the car. But has X2M5 tranny. I dont know if any of engines run also dont even know if the A3 will work with X2M5 6 speed. If anybody could shed some light on if this engine/tranny could work together and what harness would be needed i would appreciate it.

X2M5 is the 02-04 Type S so that will work perfectly with your ECU since all the 02-04's have the same speedo gear on the tranny. I'm not sure you have to do anything to make it work.

As far as which engine to run, shoot, if you can get the K20A2 working, run that and just get a Type S ECU and you're all set! I'm not sure there's any harness work to be done. You could possibly Kpro the base RSX ECU instead and download the K20A2 tunes. I don't know details. Just helping you get started.
