trading my car in for a typeS

i decided to trade my car in for a TL-S or CL-S not sure yet. so far i am selling my custom cam gears brand new have not put them in yet. there stock cam gears cut to be made adjustable. i payed close to 300 dollars but i'll sell them for 200 dollars plus shipping. alot of my stuff fits on the typeS so i'm not sure what else i'm sell yet. getting my new car in a month or two.

TRADER! J/k good luck with whatever you get! I would personally go for the CL-S.

If you like driving a stick, hold off until Acura releases the new 6-speed manual on the new Type-S cars!!!

Put me down for your Comptech headers if they don't fit your new Type-S.

I just turned in my 98 Inza red 3.0 CL on lease. I have purchased my 2001 Taffeta white CL in March. It is amazing being able to switch back and forth between the cars and notice drastic difference side by side...both good. I hate to say this but the 98 has been used as a utility vehicle hauling wood dstones rocks sod and plants this spring. Sorry I know it is sacriligious.

BTW both were parked in front of a 10,000 trailer in a trailer park for 2 months. What a snob.....

Your headers will NOT fit on the type-S. The downpipping from the 1st gen. and 2nd gen. cl's are different!

I say go with the TL. If it appeals to you, I would also say wait for the 6 speed....

This is true!! The headers will NOT fit on the new car. The headers for the first gen are the same as the 94-97 Accord. The headers for the second gen are compatible with the 98+ Accord. Plus you have to keep in mind you're going from a 3.0 liter to a 3.2 liter. You will need to buy new Comptech headers for the CLS/TLS.....

about the headers i didn't think they would fit but according to the guy at comptech I talked to he said they will fit but not many people know it yet. will see if they dont i'll sell mine and get the other ones. i think i am going to get the SI BLUE TL-S its bad ass i can wait. since ny dad just got his TL-S i drive it all the time and i have yet to lose. i have raced a modded typeR with three people in the car and killed him, GSR modded same thing happened ETC.
