noob

hey guys, just wondered over from TSXclub(which sucks) and thought i would intro myself.

i am 23, seattle resident, been a hondaphile for a long time and have owned 24 hondas/acuras including my two currnet cars, a 2002 berlina black s2000 and a 2005 NBP TSX 5AT. love my TSX to death and think that it is one of the most underrated hondas/acuras/cars in its class. anyway here are a couple pic of my cars in case you seen me on the streets/online.








mods for the s2 are....
Interior: spoon ti shift knob

Exterior: amuse front lip, lancer evolution radio antenna

Wheels/suspension: ASA AR1’s, 215/45r17 fronts and 245/40r17 rears, tanabe lowering springs

Engine/exhaust: mugen rad cap, mugen oil cap, spoon reservoir socks, KN drop in filter, berk test pipe, spoon n1 exhaust, vafc 2 tuned. 221.2RWHP 143.5RWTQ mustang dyno

mods for the TSX...
tanabe springs

many, many plans for the tsx, just trying to figure what the best bang for the buck.

have all 24 been black ? What's the Lancer Evo antenna mod look like on a S, I've seen people mod their antenna's to the S2000's because its so short, but never an Evo.

If you're really worried about hydrolocking, checkout the K&N CAI, it has a drycharger, basically a bag that sits over the filter to keep water particles out

na only these two have been black. i really want to get a little extra out of the tsx. so with intake, DC header, and greddy evo2 eahaust what kinda gains am i looking at? i know auto TSX' make around 150-160 to the wheel, so make 20whp out of those mods. i know the K series responds very well to mods, but is that realistic?

oh, and the evo antenna makes it look a like a 350z antenna. looks like an Rc car now, but i couldnt stand the 80's cell phone stubby antenna that comes stock on s2's.

i bought and sold alot of hatches and civic coupes. 2 were stolen and totally destroyed. i had a volvo 850T5R for about 1 week before i guy came up to me a safeway parking lot and offered my 5k more than what i paid for it. SOLD!! stuff like that, i was always finding another car i wanted or a better deal. i always made money on the deals so, it worked out i guess.

besides my s2, one of the funniest cars i owned was a 95 civic hatch. it was a base model, CX/HX. i through i 75 shot on it and totally gutted it. what a sleeper. that little car just wouldnt die. i by the end i was going through a 10lbs bottle of nitrous a week and it just ran like a champ. fun car~

don't bother with an exhaust unless you get hondata reflash or supercharger depending on your budget. Those 2 are where the power upgrades are.

Wow. You're 23 and you've owned 24 cars? That's like three a year. Nice turnover.
