man.. the same seller sold the side skirts for dirt cheap too. I can only assume this is from the same demo car, so they must've been mint too. I think they were sold for ~$200, cuz the seller had it at like $250 or something, and accepted a lower offer instead. fml I didn't want the side skirts at the time... now I feel stupid for letting that slip. They're impossible to find on ebay now

but yea, dirt cheap for the fronts nonetheless

thanks!

thanks bruh. and whatchu kno about dat?

yeah I got the tech package... wish I had gotten the 6 speed A-Spec here in Canada (equivalent to your SE down in the states). Instead I got the tech cuz it was dirt cheap at the stealership. one downside is TECH doesn't come with any of the underbody spoilers. When I saw this on ebay at the time I didn't really know if I wanted to buy it or not... it was like buy it now for $200. I put up $100 as a low ball shits and giggles offer and he actually accepted it lol

lol! I'm not sure where this randomly came from... yes I know I'm from Toronto hahah... but I'm no die-hard Leafs fans. Any die-hard Leafs fan is just setting themselves up for disappointment! I still watch them maybe every other Saturday though

I'm in serious need of better MFTs. I started polishing the hood today with my GG6 DA on speed 5 using Meg's UC on a cyan LC HydroTech pad, and most of the scratches are gone... but I still see a few scratches on the paint They're non-circular/swirly, which I'm pretty sure is caused by me removing the the residue with my current MFT since I only did so in straight line motions.

Probably gonna try again over the weekend. Gonna hit up costco to get some MFTs for the wipe down, and maybe terry cloths for cleaning the pad on the fly.

I've been so strapped on time too. I only had time after work today to do the hood, and now the hood is clean and shiny, while the rest of the car is poo lmao

urbanstereo

oh i have the tech, but the guy i bought it from got the sport package. i got lucky =)

go sharks

Vinny_P

Looking Good man, you got a crazy good deal for the front lip.

waaasobe

hey man the car look fantastic! now that your finally not stock lol you should come out to some meets. bunch of us are leading to kennedy commons tomorrow at 8. pm me for further info. its apparently huge it'd be nice to see you there !

D4nnyD

Hey bud, im in the GTA as well. Mississauga. I was wondering if you could tell me where you sourced your coilovers and how much then ran you.

Thanks

xtcnrice

Thanks guys, appreciate it. I'll try and come out! PM'd

That's perfect for you! I got them from tires23.com which is in sauga. Best price in the GTA afaik. I got the TEIN Street Basis coilovers (PN: GSB90-1USS2). I got them for $830 taxes in. Wait was about 2-3 weeks, and you have to put down 50%. Ask for Billy, he hooked me up with that price.

xtcnrice

No new updates... been polishing my car lol (joe be mad seeing this!)

Been seriously considering spacers for the rear though. If I get the fenders rolled, what size spacers would you guys recommend? The specs are 18x9.5 +45 on 235/40 tires. I'm leaning towards 20mm... do you guys think they'll poke? Natural camber atm (around -3 degrees).

Sorry for reposting the pics... figured I'd gather most of my pics that sorta show off how sunk the rears are.

savclaude

Looks great

Puppetmaster

It looks great to me and I'd leave it as is, but then I'm not in the camp that requires "flushness". Also, from a practical standpoint, the further out your wheels are, the more sand, pebbles and other crap they will kick up against the side of the car. I know that first hand from my fronts sticking out a little.

iCrap

I'd leave it as is.

Also dat rec center tho. get that car out of the shot.

ssjoeboe9

You have an impressive resumé XTCnRICE

xtcnrice

lol checkin out my linkedin?

I'd love to work at honda though... they should hire me to work on ecus or something

ssjoeboe9

PM me if you are serious

iCrap

lol damn get me a job when i graduate!

Im a CS tho not a CE.

xtcnrice

I wish I have both family-based and my own personal commitments that pretty much require me to stay up here in toronto for at least a few more years. Unless Honda needs a software eng such as myself up here, then i'm sol.

thanks for the offer tho, much appreciated

maybe iCrap can intern for you guys LOL

ssjoeboe9

No problemo friend!

Check out our facility in Canada maybe? I have no idea what they do up there though lmao

xtcnrice

make/test heated seats?

xtcnrice

sup gaiz.. bit of old news if you follow me on IG.


love it when I get new stuff


me struggling like a mofo


how she looks now... rears sunk as hell since the fender roll spacers on soon


TSB problems


ghetto af!


still shit at night photography haha

Been SO lazy. Still need to install spacers and dip my chrome foglight covers before winter hits...

ssjoeboe9

Lol at your A-pillar garnish being taped on haha

iCrap

yeah lol ^

if your gonna black out the fog covers maybe do the grille as well. or CF it or something.

xtcnrice

eh.. I think I prefer the chrome over the cf/dipped grille

UTAH TSX

I agree the chrome grill looks good with the white cars, did you ever put spacers on the rear wheels I've been thinking on doing that to ?

iCrap

Yeah on white the chrome does look good actually... I don't even mind the chrome handles on a white car.

xtcnrice

I haven't put spacers on my rears yet, but the fenders have been rolled in preparation; just been lazy. I bought 15mm H&R DRS spacers; the kind that needs extended studs. I'm going to do a test fit sometime this week without the bolts on (not gonna drive it, just to see how it looks), and if it's still a bit sunk, I'll get 20mm bolt-on spacers instead and sell my 15mm. I'll keep you posted.

914TSX

Can the teins go lower?

MC MiYoung3269

Tein's can go low enough to fuck up front fenders lol

xtcnrice

Yeah I can go much lower on the teins. Might go a 1/4" (or a little less) lower in the rear, but no more. TEIN Basics/Street Basis ride pretty soft, so I'm gonna scrape around town even more if I go any lower lol

MC MiYoung3269

Mind if I threadjack for 914TSX? lol
Here's a pic of mine maxed out

xtcnrice

I DO mind NOMIS!!!

jk

MC MiYoung3269

Good. Because someone has to keep SEEYOU2CREW alive! Threadjacking for days~

savclaude

I like the new addition

ssjoeboe9

I remember when I cared about being in the SEEYOU2CREW...

Then I ascended far above the pettiness that is attached to the group that has slowly died off and withered away....

rawger

Classy bruh. Don't expect nothing less.

xtcnrice

RV6 PCD is in. No FlashPro yet (soon!), but the car definitely pulls harder. Rasp is present between 2.5-3k rpm.. I'll give it some time before I decide on installing a Vibrant res or not. Thanks optimus!

UTAH, my 15mm spacers came in and I installed them onto my rears like a week ago... just been lazy as hell to get a decent picture. Fitment is great. I'll snap some pics for you soon. I'm effectively 18x9.5 +30 rear now.

iCrap

Did you DIY it or did you get somebody to install it for you?

MC MiYoung3269

about a week ago~

ssjoeboe9

Nice, keep me posted.. I have the resonator not sure if I'm gunna install. We will see
