I will have it after the next meet, which is probably in the next week or so.
Or they'll be posted on www.ottawaprelude.ca. Either way, I'll let you know.

Haha saw this sticker on the back of some GTi at the Import Shootout.

i love vdubs, but please they are not fast and most of there enthuiasts dont even care about going fast. as opposed to the honda scene. i hang out with enough vdub heads to kno this.

It's pretty stereotypical.

That sticker is legit for that car though, that was one sick, sleepy lookin' GTi. Ran damn fast too. The dude drivin' it was really nice and talked to us for awhile. His engine setup was insane, but yet sooo clean. You could tell everything was done right.

In other news, a convertible Neon entered the car show. I didn't get any pictures of that though

But there always will be a honda or 2 out there thats faster than him. Or any other car for that fact. which is y i never bothered with dumb shit like that.

Dicorp

i got smoke by a jetta with a similar sticker. he had a crazy turbo build. no chance.

So, if you didn't already know this NEVER put tools in your engine bay. Putting my short air intake in yesterday, in my excitement closed my hood down onto my ratchet set... ... don't worry though, I bent the hood back and it was

p.s. how do i thumbnail images?

ZeroCL

host on imageshack.us and use the code they provide to make things easy. and holy hell, that sucks. the whole damn ratchet set?

XxAtTheGatesxX

Very true. I thought the design in general was funny though.

And damn DoctorSound, you musta been very excited!

hahaha thats how my hood looked after i did the extended bolt and washer mod.

im gonna do that shit again i think.

Doctorsound

You know how it is once you hear an engine fire up!

The ratchet set was about an inch tall, and i sat it on the fuse box, so not much clearence! car sounds sweet though!

DaInFaMMuS1

Lapse of intelligence while being too excited huh lol.

DaInFaMMuS1

Dont do it. Didnt look good the 1st time, wont look good this time either.

Yeahj thats how i felt when i saw an EF9 Civic hacked into a 4dr convertible by some ricer by where i live. For every clean built car, theres atleast 3 ricers to make up for it around Cincy it seems like

DaInFaMMuS1

oh trust me, thats everywhere, not just Cincy lol.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

The rice is everywhere

1slo23

The sadest part about ricers is 9 times out of 10 they're the ones who think they are fast and bad to the bone but have nothing to show for. Another guy who used to cruise by me had a orange Civic coupe and always tried to race everyone. It was sad little POS with only three out of four konig Unkowns on it, a wing seriously taller than the roof and a "custom" paint job laid down ala' wicker broom.
I lol'd when he wanted to race the CL in traffic.....moron

Doctorsound

What's wrong with that lol? (3/4 is a majority right)

Anywho, quick question... Are there L.E.D. Replacements available for the 3rd brake light? I HATE seeing tint cut around the 3rd light, so I'm thinking take it off, have it tinted, and put it back on with home Brighter L.E.D.'s to help out.

Also, why do we not have a big (erm, little) list of parts websites to go to (i.e. LED light website)?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

I took mine off and had em int over it. YOu can get LED's for it, not sure the bulb size though

That's what I did.

Now I'm looking for some grey carpet to cover the hole.

DoubleSh0t

iTrader: (1)

^^ You have a bomz racing license plate frame? C'mon man, if you're going to go that route, you might as well get a Turbonetics or a NOS frame for a front plate.

GhettoNinja06

iTrader: (1)

It came with the 3rd intake. lol.

Cuz I don't have a turbo or nitrus and I needed a rear frame with a BOMZ intake so I thought why not.

Cocoa

iTrader: (2)

I want to rant about my job, but don't have time right now. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

GhettoNinja06

iTrader: (1)

BTW, it came with racing stickers too. =P





I just put them on for poops and giggles. I'm taking them off when I wash the car this weekend.

edit: wow, I can't believe how great that first pic came out with my cell phone!

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

stickers are even worse

DaInFaMMuS1

I really dont see much wrong with the license plate fram, but im kinda iffy on the stickers.

Doctorsound

inb4 noob shitstorm...

So what's going on here... H22 swap (okay, i've seen that), But Manual swap too (Was auto). Is that right and I'm just a noob?
http://www.karmotorsports.com/H22%20Acura%20CL.htm

DaInFaMMuS1

You are correct my friend. H22 swap and 5spd swap. Never seen that in a titanium metallic CL, where'd you find that?

ZeroCL

Just wanted to make a random statement that i saw some hot ass chick in a even nicer, mercedes. It looked to be a coupe but all the windows were down. The back quarter window had the shape like ours kinda. there wasnt a pillar either which led me to believe it could be a convertible but a hard top. anyone have any idea? Im not usually a fan of mercedes, but this one looked hotttt....maybe it was just the girl.


theres no pictures, so dont even ask! haha.

South Jersey CL

it probably was the girl haha....but no, it wasnt a convertible. mercedes convertibles are mostly soft tops, the one you saw was probably a CLK coupe. it has no pillar.

Dicorp

So....I finally got my camber kits. adjustable balljoints from SPC. Now i need them installed and the installation quotes are fucking redicolous. 1 hour a wheel at 80$ ahour. plus alingment. Does it really take an hour to pop and replace a balljoint? I thinking of DIY this, what tools do i need?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

The hardest part is getting the old ones out, that's some crazy labor costs though.

Dicorp

how hard are we takling here? I'm renting a ball joint compressor too. that should push it right out, no?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Yeah that'll press it in, my ball joints on the CL had to be torched, and pryed out. Ended up busting them out.
