Any recall info?

I heard that the Japanese accords are recalled. Are we going to have one before winter hits? Here the temperature is getting lower everyday and I am starting to be a bit concerned.

This article says that the recall is for a rubber exhaust connector tube that shrinks in cold weather, leading to potentially more pollution. The article says that it isn't going to affect the car's performance, but that the company is doing it primarily out of environmental concern.

I might be preaching to the choir here, but one of the reasons that Honda gets the is because they do things of this nature.

Badboy......

there is a shop here in phx called VERSUS, i know the owner and when he saw my car he asked if i was going to hook it up at all..... he got me my obx,my caliper paint, and my springs for cheap!

he's trying to get me my cai and my mugen front grill right now.

all you have to do is by 2 mufflers from any car performance shop, and take of the 3 original mufflers, and replace them with downpiping. its not difficult, if you have a welder, or have a shop do it for you.

i know this is kinda slopy, but i've been up for like 36 hours. if you have any other questions, let me know. also, where do you live?

hahaha, good point. sorry about that.

as far as the exhaust goes, you might want to wait untill comptech releases theres.....personally, as soon as greddy releases an evo system for the tsx i am going to buy it.

and yes, as soon as i get the grill i will post pics of it and the install.

also, im posting pics of my car sometime this week, so you can see my exhaust then.


also, i know there is a website that you can buy the mugen gril gor like $240....i just cant remember it right now....ill post it as soon as i do.
