did you install the steering wheel or did the shop install it. there is no way to prevent the little red airbag light from coming on if you dont have a drivers side airbag connected. if they installed it could you find out what they did.

Admin can even browse through your PM box if he has reason to suspect illegal trade. Even the deleted PMs.

Does anyone know if you have to lift going into Turn 1, at Shannonville, in a TSX with stock suspension and tires? My TSX is sitting in the garage with 322 km, so its limits are unknown to me, but I'd appreciate some relative comparisons to a 91 Civic Si (suspension, exhaust, intake, stock 185/60-14 rubber, upgraded brakes) which spent 5 days at Shannonville.

I know, I know...if you have time to look you're not going fast enough, but that Civic used to go into Turn 1 at about 110 kph, without lifting, and hit 140+ kph before Turn 2 in 4th gear. Depending upon how brutal I wanted to be to the clutch, coming out of the hairpin leading onto the long straight, I could hit 175 kph at redline, in 4th gear.

Well, if he's tracking the car, it's probably functional. Otherwise I agree.

i hit the same 175 at the back straight too, but at turn one i could pull in at 120km/h and 150km/h b4 turn 2

but again i have a TL with Toyo T1-R tires so it's not that fair compare with urs

John is truly a bad friend of mine because he always encourages me to buy nice TVs/parts/tires (although it's too cheap to pass on the deal)

I bought the same set of tires as well from him and I will put on a few days b4 the track day

now we both got yoyomama A048, let's see who's better at shannonville

who wanna make a bet...Sam's TL or John's TSX?
