What kind of coilovers do you have? Do you have any pictures of your car? Im planning to switch my 5zigen copse for some racing hart c5's.

i think youre better off selling your mods separately as opposed to with the car. no one in their right mind would buy your car for the price youre asking. your car is 4 years old and now 5 years old, considering the 2003 models are now on sale. that 1 extra "year" has probably depreciated your car even more now. plus, you alienate your customer base with all those mods. no mom-and-dad is going to buy your car. if the dealer doesnt give extra money for all the mods, what makes you think a private buyer will?

your car

Yeah if you find the right person you could sell it, but yeah any older person won't want those mods. That's why it's been tought selling my accord, it's nice and really modded up, but I gotta find someone who wants it that way. Good luck though, your TL is nice. My friend has 2002 Audi S4, very tight.

Hey nInEeiGhtTL,
Where did you get the Intake/Greddy exhaust and the chip for the ECU? I thought they didn't make a lot of mods for our 1st Gen TL's?

OMG repainted car with an annoying exhaust and you want 21K? you've gotta be kidding me... and then the chip and i/e probably helps this car run 17s or so?... I think that body style (like the RL) are beautiful cars but not made to be riced out with an annoying greddy exhaust... good luck onthat S4 tho, they're amazing cars... I think you'll be more than happy with that...

i missed this

pardon me, i bought the car from my best friend whos dad owns the acura dealer in town. The car was bought for 17k and he made 20 dollars on the car, sold it to for what they have in it.

The car has 68k miles and a 115k extended bumper to bumper and powertrain acura factory certified used car warranty, i am a perfectionist at my belongings.

the car has a ton of dynamat extreme in it, its not loud, nor annoying. And someone owning a civic has no right to judge my car and tell me its ricey. it won 3rd at a giant car show, and is complemented daily. the main situation and solution is, the car is not for a 17 year old kid with a civic, its for a older more mature person to enjoy and respect, and i have no patience or respect for someone who grades and badgers somthing i put time and effort into building.

so keep up the good work with the civic, i had one once, but mine ran measley 11.9's @132+ mph with a turbo h22 type s prelude motor.

well

i am fixing my integra up more i am going to sell both of them.

I added a aem big brake kit to the tl (type r kit is the same), rear slotted rotors and pads, struts, and a civic type r steering wheel. as well as a new battery(optima red top).

the teg got a cf hood, jdm lights, extended wheel studs, ti lugnuts, tint, and is awaiting paint and then bye bye.

I need to get both immaculate before dippage. then its time for somthing i want more. I love the tl dont get me wrong but after having some of the little speedbuggy hatchbacks ive had, its just quite a step down in performance. My integra is kinda quick, (13.9-14.4 in 1/4) but i am ready for 13pounds of boost and an m3 sedan.

fairwell my friends.
let me know if you ever need any help, for i am capeable of doing work on the cars you love..
