heheh, I like the wing, is it DC2R wing?

Also, Is is just reflection from the seats, or do you have blue lights in the front foot area? Looks nice if they are lights.

Everything is nice on your car, even the wing.

The Recaros with matching alcantara is real nice.

How about a list of mods on your car?

It's the same design as the DC2R-Wing, but it's a bit smaller. The wing can be ordered in germany.

Yes, I have blue lights under the dash and under the seats (it's an old picture, without pedals and seats)

Here's a list of my mods:
- Full Mugen Bodykit (without wing)
- DC2R-Style wing
- Fox Racing RS Rims 8x18, offset 45
- KW Suspension (lowered 60mm)
- tinted windows
- camshafts of Rikli Motorsport (Switzerland)
- air restrictor removed
- K&N replacement airfilter
- highflow cat
- shorter gears
- lightened flywheel
- Recaro Trendline seats
- door panels and rear seats with blue alcantara
- Défi Link Display and Control Unit II (oil temp., oil pressure, water temp., shift light integrated in the instrument panel)

I hope I didn't forgot anything

Any issues with the ECU/instrument display and lack of side airbags in the seats?

A few questions:


1) What does this accomplish:
- air restrictor removed

2)What does this improve?
- lightened flywheel

3) Are the recaro seats more comfortable or body-forming?
- Recaro Trendline seats

4) Can I get a weblink for those pedals?

by the way, the car is beautiful

You have to put in a resistor (hope that's the right word). Ask your Honda Dealer.

Original Honda Parts from Japan. Ordered through my Honda Dealer. I have the part numbers from this forum.

1) Better airflow and more noise around 3000rpm. There are some threads about this in this forum.
2) Better acceleration.
3) It's a compromise. I think they're very comfortable.
4) Get part numer from this forum (search for euro-r pedals) and order them through your honda dealer

You got the pedals from Japan through a US dealer? I didn't know you could do that. I can't seem to find the part #'s. Can you please list them?

Thanks for the help.

Seat mounting

I want to change the seats in my TSX. Another model of the Recars probably. What do you use to mount the seats up to the floor?

Recaro consoles were welded on the original support.

I got my Type-S from Zurich as I used to live in that region up until some months ago- I now live in Hamburg Germany.

Have you herd of Digital Tuning - they have a module that modifies the ECU for our accord adding 16Hp.
