I am looking for something unique...has anybody had experience wtih lambo (vertical) doors on the TSX or any other car? If so i was just wondering if they worked well, if they lasted long, etc...

I've seen lambo doors on Civics, Eclipses, Accords, Maximas, just to name a few. They seem to be pretty good, but you gotta becafeful when you open the doors because over time it will scrape and chip paint from the sills....thats what I saw on a Civic hatch w/ lambo doors.

madmanmax3000

hmm...do they go straight up, or do they go out a bit then up?

ClutchPerformer

Let me begin by saying that I think Lambo doors is one of the silliest mods on the planet. But if that's what floats your boat and you have the dough, then go right ahead and do it.



.....But why would you want to do it on a 4-door car of all things?

Dan Martin

I think the labo door fad is pretty played out now.

madmanmax3000

Clutch, i would just do it on the front doors, and bout having the dough...my bday is coming up and i wanna get something for the car but i am really out of ideas. I wanted to get the Tein coilovers with the EDFC, but my parents say that the extra harshness in the ride will create vibration in the engine bay and wear out the parts much faster. I was also thinking about getting some larger rims, but i am in high school and that'd be just asking to get my car vandalized. So my question at this point is...WHAT SHOULD MY NEXT MOD BE?

scratch-n-sniff

my opinion is that a tsx is more on the classy side of a ride.

have you done the following things?

intake
headers
exaust
swaybar
springs
tints
rims - and if you get 18 inch non-chrome non-tacky ones then i think itll look phat
subs
hondadata heeatshield gasket

im a senior in high school from NYC and my car has never been touched. as you get older kids will appreciate things done to a car.
my opinion is lambo doors look ghey on a non 2 do car but thats just by dos cents.

cmf

Do suicide doors. That'd be pretty different.

madmanmax3000

I am not doing headers because its too much money for something that gets you very little gain. The amount you can tint in MA makes it not worth a tint job. I have considered rear sway. That is about it tho...


Just so you can see my list of mods so far....

Dan Martin

Screw that, do NO doors like Jeep style. That would be different.

Dan Martin

You've got a pretty good mod list. I'd say wheels+tires and swaybar should be your next mod.

madmanmax3000

haha, jeep style might take away from the luxury a tad bit

Dan Martin

But think of the weight savings!

alright, glad u guys talked me out of the lambo doors, i think i'm gonna do this over the next 6-months to a year...
1) Rear Sway
2) Rims and tires
3) Aluminum pedals (from www.ultimatepedals.com )
4) Suspension

no specific order for the first 3, but i'm pretty sure suspension will be last...
does this seem like a good plan? is there anything i'm missing?

matelot

Go ahead son do it ! at 16 you're entitled to go off the tangent and go for the moon !
haha

gfxdave99

Yeah but he might want to ask who bought the car's permission

CSpaR

I would add Yosimity Sam "BACK-OFF!" mudd flaps. heheh

CSpaR

The cheapest brake pedal for the TSX was $59! Ouchie.

madmanmax3000

ya the pedals are def pricey, its a bit over $120 for 3 pedals, but they are the best ones out there

I actually like lambo doors. I am actually planning on doing the fronts lambo style and the rear suicide...that would be a tight combo...DON't STEAL MY IDEA =)

Whiskers

I have a Lambo style trunk and I am good with that...

CobaltForge

Hey! What's wrong with those? I've have them on my TSX. And then on the front mudflaps, I have the trucker "girl" chrome ones.

fdl

Whats rear suicide? no doors?

dom

I think they open backward, like the RX-8

Whiskers

CobaltForge

You got it all wrong! That's a GoBot!

Whiskers

madmanmax3000

...and is that a REALLY TALL SHIFTER

fdl

I'd like to hook my TSX up with these doors

Dan Martin

I think I've seen some lowrider trucks that could do that.

gfxdave99

The shifter looks like bob barkers microphone... every time i shifted id want to guess if the price is right

CSpaR

HAHHAAH! Nice! Wonder what that conv would cost.??

matelot

he better be strapped in all the time haha
