It only took me 2 days to get past the break in period! You can do it!

And if you debadge and only keep the "TSX" it will throw the weight of the vehicle way off! So you have to invest in a set of coilovers ASAP!

Congrats!!!!

thanks again everyone. you guys are awesome. i love this board.

haha yea...i've already got things in mind i wanna add to the car.
think i'll start with the lip spoiler since ive noticed it makes a subtle difference in enhancing the car's already good looks. still researching which ipod adapter i want for the car. thinking of springing for (no pun intended) the Tein S springs. and on the AV side, add one of those tv tuners. man, im gonna be so broke.

i also noticed, like many ppl on this forum say, how bad the stock stereo sounds. i was somewhat disappointed cuz even my accord had better and clearer sound on its stock system than this...might have to consider investing in some speakers




And if you debadge and only keep the "TSX" it will throw the weight of the vehicle way off! So you have to invest in a set of coilovers ASAP!
LOL maybe i should photoshop the "acura" badge out to get an idea first how it'll turn out hehe

Yes, our cars are pretty much identical except for the interior color. I think CG looks best on the TSX, imo (black ain't bad either). yup, good 'ol irvine...

Am I late to another "congrats to the new TSX" thread?!?!? Been working too hard the last couple days, did very little a-tsx, that's why!

So CONGRATS !!! Nice colour choice Guess what colour I have

Man, did you get your 98 Accord brand new?? And you managed to sell it off? I hope it's back to the damn dealer that sold it to you in the first place and said it's all nice and fine
