Possibly getting a KA9....

So I'm thinking of buying an '00-'04 RL.

I've found some decent priced ones in my area BUTT the only hesitation is after doing research, there doesn't seem to be any aero kits, interior accessories, etc, could be a lack of research.

If I don't find anything for the KA9, I might just go with getting a UCF20.


Any opinions? Kinda have to come to a conclusion soon. Lol.

That's true. I actually did some more research & found a site that has aero kits but I can't read or speak a lick of Japanese/Chinese.
But I'll give it a shot. I haven't seen any modded RLs here, since most ppl who are into the Honda/Acura game are still into that race-"JDM" look, w.e that means lol

KA9 stuff is hard to come by, but it's worth it since noone is really doing 'em up and running 'em around town. I wish I can figure out a way to cop a full kit.

I found a site that does sell them, I've done hours of research.
Imo its worth the price. What worries me is the price of getting bags over coils.
That is pricey rite? Especially since its a rarity part...

Yeah Net its a bit frustrating but I think its worth the time & effort.

i've been searching for things like adjustible control arms, toe, and traction rods. but it seems like the only retailers are in japan. I dont want to strictly have to deal with every upgrade come through EMS.

I actually test drove a 2000 RL today and loved it. still researching before i pull the trigger though.
