Code name Blackura, an introduction

I have been a azine member for a while now, mostly a looker and almost never a poster. But I have since sold the ice blue teal 3.0 cl I owned for many years and purchased a 2001 CL-P. I have actually had it for about 6 months now and have been slowly upgrading it, with tasteful help from all of you experienced members out there in azine land anyhow here’s her specs and then a few pictures.

2001 Acura 3.2 CL-P
Nighthawk Black
Black Interior
Auto Trans
25% tint all the way
225/60/zr16 tires

Ice:
Pioneer 6800 IB deck, dash kit, ipod cable in the G box
Infinity Kappa 6 1/2 components
Infinity Kappa 6x9
Infinity Kappa Perfect 12 DVC
Infinity Reference 700 watt mono block sub amp
Infinity Reference 680 watt 4 channel amp for highs/Mids
Alarm with paging and all the good shit, (got to keep the ice secure)
75 Pound Red Nose Pit Bull Running the passenger seat( the real security system)

Go Fast:
Aem V2 Intake
UR 3 part pulley set/w new belts
XS chrome headers
Custom build exhaust

cant figure out how to post a picture, shitty

OK went to photobucket, just a few shots of the car and one shot of my back system with with flush mount off, I took out the box and amps for my run at the track today!!!

Story on this car was that it was traded in at my dads car lot a while back, and when I did the carfax I realized it was a one owner (female) Oregon car, so I decided to swoop it up and forgo my search for a 6 speed. With the money I saved I was totally able to make up for some of the power difference beween the CL-P and a CL-S. Pluss I have a fetish for all black cars, my next step is a set of all black 18's.

yea the rims suck, I got it during winter months so I figured why spend a grip of cash on rims if the rocks are going to eat them alive. The rocks are finally off the roads, so the search the rims starts today.........

I have real reservations about about a drop though, I am going to be driving this girl A LOT for my new job and I cant take all the bumps and shit of a lowered car, this thing rides like a deam down the freeway at 85, and Im not willing to fuck with that.

i just dropped my car recently and i feel like my ride is actually better, go for at least a conservative drop because once u put rims on it will look funny, get tein h tech springs or something.

yes, the sub is pointed down, I golf quite a bit, so I had
to leave enough room for two sets of clubs. It sounds killer, my
installer took the entire trunk apart and put a crap sack of dynamat
in every pannel, so there are no rattles at all. He said the Dow
fire should add 3-4 db overall
