Yeah Acura is now offering the 4x4 as an option on all their cars now
Reflection, ah this car is VERY sensative when it comes to reflections. You need JUST the right light or else the pics look like crap. I should've snapped pics this morning.....ugh perhapes next monday morning

yea, i thought about it but i really wanted to go with an even drop. Hmmmm perhaps the weight of the sub etc., will even it out. I was considering the coilover because i like the fact i could adjust the height. We'll see.....

hmmm dunno, perhaps i should throw up a thread to see if there is any interest.
CT springs will fit but the ride gets harsh without aftermarket shocks. I may keep the CT springs and get them some koni yellows. I gotta figure out what i want to do interms of the first major mod.

Other than that:
I had a spoiler on my old cls and decided not go with one on this car. I love the look of the spoiler but i think it may make the car look less classy and more sporty.
I might end up getting one down the line but i think the $400 will go towards rims/tires and some teins Thanks for the compliments

Looks GREAT man.
Sorry I’m late to reply, I don’t check out this section that often.
You mentioned a “Pre-Philly” MEET earlier.
I agree, we should have one before the big Englishtown event.
The 9th maybe ???
We can find a quiet “cop-free” area and practice our proper launch technique.

I have the S30 and it is great. For a great site on all digicams, goto: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/
By the way, I used Dent Wizard on a shopping cart dent in the same spot and their work is great.

Dropped and new rims yours would look something like this.
Also I have noticed that with no wing there is a dramatic high speed stability comprimise. At speeds greater than 120 mph the car feels as if it wants to test out those bumps for the blind drivers. Still its easy to hit the governed top speed without even looking at your last gear. For more pics check out the sig.

Great pics ... lets me get some idea of how mine will look next spring when the weather allows for the Zaino-ization of my Anthracite. Question about the rubber ... what did you decide to replace the stock Michelins with? Too early to be running Blizzacks for the winter on the stock rims ... also, is the rubber the same as stock or another size? appreciate your input.

I think that's the first time I've seen that size being used by anybody. why did you choose that particular size? and are you aware of any speedo problems since the rev rate is sooo much different from the stock Mich?

I haven't noticed anything. I've been past those machines that measure your speed on local roads and the speed has been pretty accurate.
Crap, i'm not using a 225/ 55 /17. I'm using a
225/ 50 /17. So the odometer is only off by 1.5% which is a little less then 1 mph.

nice these pilot sports a/s are nice tires. DOn't be mistaken. If you plan to add power upgrades to your ride, h/i/splgs/rims etc., then they will not be enough. On my old cls i had h/i/e/p and had absolutely NO problem lighting the tires up. You'll want to get a dedicated high performance tire if possible. Don't get me wrong, over all these tires are MUCH better than stock. Cornering, wet and dry traction all improved.
