Been A Year....Still Around On Here
Sorry if this is against any rules, but I just wanted to mention how it's been a year that I lost my 3.0CL and that I still wanted to thank the CL section of the site for all that I learned to do when I had the car. Had the chance last year to get another 3.0 while I was car-shopping, but with the amount of corrosion, unprofessional body work, and a trans that was on its way out, it wouldn't have been worth it. But the itch to switch some stuff out easily carried over to my I30, which still has some things left before its at about the same level my CL was at (could post a pic but it certainly won't be as I want it for maybe another month or so. especially with it's fugly stock wheels, without the head unit I got last week, or the rear spoiler). I'm still around in Car Talk, and I hope that some day I'll be looking back to the 1st gen CL section to mod another one. And I still lurk on the 1G CL section from time to time to see what you other guys are doing to your cars. And I do miss that VTEC sound with the SRI ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
Anyway, here's a couple pics I had of my CL I found a few weeks ago. Not to whore it out, I just found them and never posted too many photos on here

I moved onto a 2000 Infiniti I30 (22k miles when I got it last June). I'll see if I can get any decent pics of it tomorrow. My plans for it are listed in my signature, but to reiterate from my last post, looking to get a set of wheels on (which I got courtesy of fellow member RaviNJCLs from his old I35) as soon as the one replacement wheel I ordered off eBay arrives; then get some Continental DWS tires for them. Probably even sooner will be to get my new Pioneer head unit in as soon as I can get a trim piece from an audio supplier my dad knows (hopefully tomorrow). Then hopefully this summer, I'll get some small rust spots fixed, as well as get the OEM spoiler I picked up off craigslist painted (it's currently black, and I have a white car).

Not much of a looker at the moment, but these are some current pics of my I30

Odometer reading was probably the biggest reason I got the car, I've put on 13k miles since I got her last June (this pic was taken today)

Current radio setup, to be replaced with a double-DIN Pioneer and an Asian Domestic Market trim piece that has wood from the clock down to the climate control. My dad hates this kit since it isn't a perfect fit and the color is off

And I installed LED taillights

Should have those I35 wheels mounted in about two weeks (I'm taking it to my old high school's auto shop to see how badly a bend in the rear lip of the wheel throw off the balance), since I have to order some Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires and get them delivered, too. Those wheels should help make the car look something more like this:
