I know, I know, SERCH!! but I have and need help.
what is the difference between a base CL and a CL-S, I see spoilers on every type-S but I have read they are all dealer inltalled, sun-roofs on 4cyl cars but it might have been a option, but other than that I don't know what the diffrence is. Can I upgraid my 98 3.0 to type-S parts. Is it a larger wheel/tire, firmer suspension package, I know the gen2 v6 CL-S get a 6spd. but is that standard for the type-S or a option for base 3.2?

any help or links w/ info on this would be appreceated. Thanks.

about all I can offer as I don't know much about the first Gen. but I do know that they are very different set ups.

EDIT: Link shows differences between the 2nd Gen. CL-P (Premium), and CL Type-S

 

only the 2003 model comes with a 6spd. i dont think that you can upgrade to type-s parts or else people would have done it already, but im not sure. would be nice.

 

first off, its an entirely different generation of vehicle.

97-99= 1st gen
01-03= 2nd gen

I think you'd get more answers in the 2nd gen forum, but Im pretty sure that apart from slapping a "Type-S" decal on the back of your car, there's not too much you can do to "Type-S" a 98 3.0.

Good luck modding it though.

that will give you 10whp with that decal alone

 

I know the 3.2s are totaly different, and don't expect any swaping between the 1st and 2nd gen. just loking for info. was the type-S only for 4cyl 1st gen CL cars? (because they could get a 5spd) I'm really more looking for 1st gen info. btw no badges for me lol. thanks.

 

No, 2nd Gen (01-03) were the only years the Type-S was offered. Also ALL 2nd gen Engines were 3.2 liter V6's

 

Are you close to Houston ?
If soo check out the meet in the Meet and Greet forum.

 

Ahh,I guess all the 1st gens I'v seen with badges are just that, 1st gens with badges. lol, thanks guys.

 

CL-S has Perforated leather, firmer seats, and lumbar support.
CL-S has 'Type S' on the trunk and shift knob. (CL-P has a flat leather knob)
CL-S has white instrument cluster
CL-S has an actuator
Ebony Cl-S interiors use the Black (bowling bowl) wood trim.
CL-S uses 17" 5 spoke rims. CL-P has 16" rims.
There are some distinct Type S and non-type S colors:

Type-S: Aegean Blue, Sundance "Pimp Daddy" Gold, San Marino Red
Non Type-S: Dark Emerald (Green), Naples Gold, Monterey Blue, Eternal Blue
CL-S has a VSA button.
CL-S has 35 additional horsepower.

 

i agree with the sundance its def a sweet fucking color, i also think that gsr purple/blue is another tight acura color

 

i agree

 

LOL, I didn't know what you were talking about till I re-read my post. I just pasted and copied from another website. Sundance "Pimp Daddy" Gold.

 

SSBP Super Sonic Blue Pearl it is a sweet color.

 

Ok I wanted to smack him for this thread but he finally got to the point of where he has seen 1st Gen w/ Type S badges therefore causing his confusion..The is no Type S 1st Gen 5spd or Auto.

 

 

yep, sorry bout that, but I have seen two 1st gens w/ S-badges on them around town since we'v had our CL, a black 2.2 and a white 2.3, both with a 5spd, and the white one had a sunroof, both with spoilers. I'll post pics if I get them.

again sorry bout the confusion, and thanks for the info.

 

make sure to give them a rice cop ticket next time you seen them. i forget what site has them to print out.

 

@ ticket

 

thats ghetto as hell. those people in your town are morans!

Dont try'n be something you're not; stay true to your school, just like you would to your girl or guy.

That, and drop an h22/turbo kit and blow the shit out of those fake S's.
