Yes sir, registered in TX. Love the plates too, white with black lettering and a lil star in the upper left hand side. Plain and simple.

New update, have a new seat, harness and extended studs on the way. (lost my studs, and my recaro and harness expired already. Only good for 5 years). Also bought a m-dt megan muffler black to quiet it down.

Other than that, the rest to get it on the road is just labor on my end. New fitting for the fuel line, cutting of the front of the cage, and some hardware for the apr splitter. Still waiting on the bbk to arrive but should be here by next week.

His car won't pass Cali smog emissions. Hence why he would register it in Texas. Plus its easier, actually any state would be easier than Cali. He has family in Texas where he was living at but he just recently moved back to Cali.

Still have the Titan brotha, going with a camouflage paint job on it. Took a couple years break from the car scene, but getting back into it. Didn't know the amount of support the j series have now compared to when I stopped messing with the car.

Today I changed both axels, all ball joints, both bearings and new rotors because we bent one on the press and the other one was busted at the bolt holes somehow (not real sure how that happened as I was gone to get parts when it happened)

Civic guys have been using them for a while now actually. I'm just amazed how those engines make power even on stock ECU's w/no tuning.

I'm actually proud of you with all the smack talk. I though your new broke dick tranny would have failed by now. We will post the vid on here once the car is done.

2 piece 13" front and rear Wilwood with a separate rotor for the e-brake. That's what is causing the delay, the customization of the rear.

The new 4g 09+ have the sh-awd models but they look horrible with that grill and its a tank based on weight/hp ratio with alil over 300 hp. My TL-S engine and trans are not identical to the RL, but are modified versions based on it. In '07 Acura moved all TL's to the RL based transmission to reduce "the curse" that has plagued Acura trannys. My fingers are crossed that mine lasts 200k +. Hopefully Acura FINALLY got it right, I play every now and then but really don't BEAT my car.
