anthracitecl's thread
I just made this thread. so I don't have to
start another and another and another thread.
I'm gonna post pics on this thread from this moment.

I used to have 01 clp. I bought it about 7years ago. maybe 8?






and I traded her in for 03 amcl.









This is when i had tsx projectors and shift knob few years back.




















and this is current set up.



car is up for alignment.








Thank you for looking!

Loving the current setup!

Am I seeing 2 different types of mufflers? If so what brands? Looks like magnaflow's and comptech's. Hows it sound?

Really feeling those RL calipers. I'm totally sold on that mod...
Keep up the good work!

Thanks guys.

cu0ngsayz - I have eibach spring w/koni. I don't know exact ". maybe you lowered too much???

slickshift- yeah I used to have Magnaflow 14832 mufflers. and i bought comptech mufflers about 2years ago. 14832 is quieter than comptech.
I prefer comptech. love the sound and look!!

p.diddy- There's huge difference. I used to have legend calipers on my front.
I didn't feel much of differences. after these calipers are on, i'm very happy! looks good and performs well. one of the best mod i've done so far!!!

Nice ride man. So that is a RL brake kit? Not TL? Was it a direct replacement or did you have to make bigger modifications to make those brakes fit?

I was driving in traffic today and I had to make a 65-20 panick stop. The stock brakes wouldve put me in the guys trunk, but the RLs kept me in check. Best upgrade I did.

Car looks really great man! How do you like your stance with the Pro-Kit? Too high? Just right? Also, how's the ride?

Stance is perfect and a fellow a'ziner that appreciates a good drop and OEM wheels. Great job man. the 3g stock wheels look so good on other model cars. Even on the 3G with a perfect drop...sweet wheels.

I love how you USED to not block out your plate then you bothered on the last set of pics.

I finally installed my RSX steering wheel on my car!!!
It's been sitting in my closet for 2years. yeah I know i'm lazy.
I didn't install radio control button though. I didn't have time for that. I'll do it soon or later. and that blue thingy, that's for covering up damage on bezel. I gotta find new bezel!


I like rsx wheel a lot!!! Here are pics.

Steering wheel looks great, was that a difficult install?

Shifter looks nice. Is that the TL shift knob with a short shifter kit?

Thanks guys.

Bazla- That's pretty straight forward job.It's not hard. It took me 30-40 min. I still gotta figure out how i can mount radio control button. I'll do that later when i have time.
For the shift, I cut shift rod 1". got neuspeed ss and aluminum cable bushings . oh and tl shif knob. It feels great. I'm thinking of getting psport ss kit soon or later. maybe not.
