food for thought...
 
just trying to get a feel for the percentage of quality problems that seem to plague many xmods

you can pick more than one answer or you suposed to be able to....

**not sure this poll will work correctly...just interested in the numbers so the graphing isn't really important.

Well, if I had to cast a vote, it would one, but instead of returning it, I made it a parts car. Not bad odds for me though, 1 out of 14. Though I don't continually play with all 14, that's not to say that with enough use, a couple more would develop problems that warrant a return.

My sis's supras servo stoped working. But her new one works and my civic has been a angel :)

On/Off switch on my Skyline does not work. Doesn't matter if it is on or off the car always runs when you turn on the contoller.

My RSX is EXELENT! I did have to return my AWD kit tho, the left wheel lug was WAY too short. I could not attach the lug nuy after I placed a wheel on it.

However My replacement should be in today or tomorrow!
They had to have it transfered from another store, the wharehouse was out, as well as most of the stores. I guess the AWD kit was one of the more popular add-ons!

I was going to return an RSX but I took it to RS and they found the problem. Turns out the body screws were in different places because I did the RSX and my civic the same way. Also my antenna broke off on my civic but I just resoldered it, so I could have possibly returned both but I didn't.

I've only had mine for a week, it's not giving me any trouble whatsoever. I haven't tried to overclock or otherwise unauthorizedly tinker with anything, and I'm pretty obsessive about hitting things, but it's performing just fine.
:)

There's an ever so slight delay in the steering that I'm becoming increasingly aware of, though. I turn the wheel, and there's like one twentieth of a second before it actually turns. Probably normal.

I have three, and none have been problematic. I did turn one into a parts car, but that was only because it got ran over by a car, and the drivetrain was never quite the same after that.

I got my RSX for Christmas, and I have run it like mad. Chasing the cat, rolling it in the hall (I live in an apartment complex) and I have never had a problem. Yesterday I took the car apart and cleaned it compleatly. Then I re-lubed it all using Grafite instead of oil. It runs quieter, and smoother. It also collects mutch less dirt and junk.
