I've been toying with the idea of the RSX-type R wheel on my '00 civic Si EM1. Will the wheel fit and will the air bag still work on my car?

Since you asked...

well after spending $1400 over my SB on parts and s**t, then getting the news I had a OBDI SIRII motor in my car we swaped back to a '99 SI B16 and then the shop that swaped decided not to finish the job so I stopped the payment of the check and am going to court over it, took it to honda and I need a new engine harness, some CC work, new O2 sensor (just got two new ones over break and because its moded they wont warrenty them, f**king dealers!), and a new EACV/ IAC (should be covered by the 6 month warrenty on the motor) and I'm missing 5 tranny bolts (my other shop will also pay for this along with the O2 sensor because its dented in and it was new with 20 miles on it before they got it!) This also took 3 hrs to dig up at $89/hr. And this MIGHT fix it, I'm so deep into this car I cant sell it because I wont have any money to buy a new car.... I just want out right now too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, SB = $1400 in s**t, motor swap was $1615 with my old B16 and a chipped GSR ECU, then this is about $2000. SO $5,000 in my car in the last 2 months! and I had to cancle my VIS trunk lid because of this s**t!

I'm trying to afford all this and attend college at the same time, but I need a car when I get back because my job it about 25 minutes of HW driving away.

Any donations can be made to dkrangers99@aol.com on paypal :D

The cheapest I have ever found is around 250. I want an airbag. Are there any other good ones with airbags? Thats an amazing wheel though.
