lol ... actually lsd and vtec are more important to me than power ...

another choice is the a2 with some sort of LSD .... no mount/tranny issues .... and isn't it pretty much the same as a z1? i can throw in some ITR (or BC/S2 cams)

The RSX never came with a lsd. The 02-04 type s transmission would be the easiest to swap in. Go with a quaife lsd or oem honda to save some money. Any of the K20 engines mentioned will work. The DBW does not matter since you use your stock throttle body. Personally the K24A2 is a better option to me. You sacrifice some revs for having more torque and power throughout the curve.
