Bring it. I guess if we're calling DIBS...I'll take first crack at looking at it and deciding, if that's okay with you.

Indeed you did tell me that sir, I prefer to make acquaintances first.. introduce myself and such.. prior to having a need... just how I like to operate so It's not so random. But CAI is lower on my list..

Right. I'll bring food / coal?

I might also have a Braille 17lb battery available. Mine died, got a new one but seems the bad one will be replaced via warranty.


Also, if whoever claims these items don't show up to the meet, I'll make it available to those who are there.

Ok everyone..... Let's proceed to the planning and organization of the event!!

I have gone ahead and made a spreadsheet that I would like you all to fill out as you are able to confirm attendance. This will enable me to see this at any time. Please put your Government name and your username so I can kinda know who you guys are... how many people are coming, and what you would like to bring.

We all have been to BBQ before, so we all kinda have a general idea of what is usually brought. I will fine tune the list as it grows.

All of them...the RSB is free and currently claimed, but if he's a no show it'll be up for grabs. Same with the console cover if Jeremy doesn't come or if he doesn't want it after he checks it out.

*UPDATE* To use it from a phone, you need to have "GOOGLE SHEETS" on your phone, since its a google created database.

Technically J said you *would* take it, but to be fair 876_CGP_TSX did call dibs 1st. Jeremy you shoulda just called it then gave it to him. In either case, a new one is only ~$50 from acuraoemparts.com so not worth a big argument.



I strongly recommend ordering new bushings for it. My used ones are...used

I have the bar, the used bushings and the brackets. You get it all.


Thanks, Appreciate it re the RSB!.....Ye that pic was back in Oct 2013. I haven't done too much since, if I had a 6MT definitely would have more motivation! Looking to lower soon, thinking Tein SA - How much has your comfort changed from stock to that ride height?

Hard to judge comfort at the moment since the dampening is a little too stiff / bouncy for my taste. The car feels much tighter and not floaty anymore. I think once I soften it a bit and get it just right it'll be just as comfortable as stock but handle way better. Takes corners with a lot more confidence, and stays flat.

Ps: the spring rates (street sport) feel good, a bit stiffer than stock but not too much. Just gotta get the dampening right.

What suspension are you running? I'm looking forward to the meet to be able to have some good car convos and watch 1J piss in the grass again.....

ISC N1 coils with Progress rear sway bar

I also replaced all the OEM bushings and rear arms. This makes a big difference and hardly anyone does it. Many just throw new coils on top of old tired and ripped original bushings.

Here's my progress thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/photogr...type-s-918137/

I read a lot, and ask even more questions... and this seems to be the way that will be best for me.... I just have so many things I want to do, and rather that work in sections, i want to jump around which kills things. Im already preparing to come to the meet and go home saddened by all the clean TLs... and kick myself into work mode...

I see you guys on the list as I looked at it this morning... But keep me posted if it doesn't seem to work, but it should....

If all the essentials dont get placed in the list, which im sure they will.. I'll start seeing how we can all get them sorted out... or I can just pick them up and people compensate me upon arrival. Id rather not do that though....
