3 CGPs...

Haven't done one of these in a while so I look forward to it.

Though seriously, is it possible to get this in a parking structure of some sort? It's gonna be hot outside...

Technically speaking, it was one 04 CGP TSX, three 06 CGP TSX's, one NBP 06 TSX, one SSM 04 TSX and one PWP 04 TSX

OK fellas,

I def want to do this and that little picture was some helpful motivation Although, i don't have anything i need to install at this time i will be glad to help out

Here is what i'm looking to try and do. Since it will be about a 3-3.5 hrs drive, i was actually think about heading down friday night and grabbing a cheap hotel room and maybe hit the town since i haven't gone out down there before. So i have a few questions for ya. One, would anyone fron PA, NY, or NJ want to head down friday night as well and maybe split the hotel bill, and two, anyone know of any good places to hit up at night?!? PM if anyone is interested in heading down friday night.

Has the location been set in stone yet, i'm being lazy?!

Kevin (CGTSX2004) and Mike (Reach) are the VA/DC people you should talk to, especially DC's the place you probably want to check out. If you guys just want to meet the night before as well and meet up to have a quick meet and greet before the install day the day after, I'd be happy to meet up with you guys. Maybe we can hit up Dave and Busters up in Bethesda/White Flint in MD.

Should be a great turnout!

There are a bunch of places to go out in DC. Adams Morgan and Georgetown to name a couple. Of course I am not too familiar bc I just moved back from school and turned legal not too long ago .

Shoot me a PM. I probably won't be able to hang out on Friday night, but at least I can direct you to some good places to hit up in DC.

^ + radioshack's red T-taps if you want me to do it in a jiffy. and the directions!

Guys, I'm willing to forgo some of my own stuff and help do a lot of electronics, but we will be limited to what we have on site.

Everyone do not forget to bring some tools, especially if you plan on jacking up your car, you'll need to source a jack and some stands!

I still haven't heard of a better location (that won't kick us out) so I'm going to set this one in stone. Yes, its an open surface lot, it will be hot! Bring lots of water and some snacks, and try to bring something to share!

I am updating the first page with the location.

since this is at a park and ride lot I guess we can take out the BBQ. Would we get kicked out of a park if we tried to do this there?

I'm planning on attending. I just got my TSX earlier this week, it's a used 2004, and it's in awesome shape.

This is my 4th car from the Honda / Acura family (but my first TSX). I'd love to see what types of mods people have done to their cars, I'm especially interested in adding the AUX-IN for a MP3 player and Sirius.

Hope to see everyone there!

I haven't bought my brakes yet but I don't have any tools for it since they are all in Charlotte. Could someone hook a brother up with some jacks, tools, clamps so I can get that done?

SHYU, you going to get some brakes? We can do them together if you buy.

Between all of us, we should have at least a couple of floor jacks, a few sets of hand tools, a couple of torque wrenches, and most other extraneous gear needed to tackle most tasks. I think you should be fine. Just bring what you can.
