Hey acurazine! I normally don't make build threads to keep away from over exposure and (for a lack of a better word) "trolls" that usually infect most forums. You all seem cool so I figured I'd give it a go.

For starters I have a white cls 6 speed with nav and is also equipped with the complete comptech line from the factory. Including

Comptech supercharger and icebox
Comptech headers and j pipe
Comptech exhaust
Comptech sway bars
Comptech "titanium" strut bar
Comptech fuel pump and fmu

Also installed from the factory
Spc camber kit
Koni yellow struts with tein springs
Lightened flywheel and clutch
17x9 nsx wheels at all four corners

This is when I bought it




The car had some miles on it when I got it and the suspension wasn't in the best of shape so I installed a set of tein coilovers



I also picked up a set of wheels, took a little bit of work to get them to fit, they're on the car now but I don't have any good pictures so I will post them soon but until then

Work VS-KF
18x9 +59 225/40
18x10.5 +36 245/40
I plan to get the front rebarreled I've only owned the car for a month so bare with me lol





Hopefully I'll have some better pictures up before long but like I said I've only had the car for a month so check back soon!!

You installed all those comptech parts in the first month you had the car?
That's alot of dough to spend in a month.

Good luck,and welcome

CoryACG

Lol I wish I had it like that, it was actually installed by comptech at the factory. Car and driver did a article on it in June 2003

CoryACG

Haha yea man I like em too, gotta hold on to them though

moar pics! gotta love the supercharger wine.

Stephen00TL

Damn that's a nice pick up except the tl wheels if you don't mind how much did you get the car for with all those parts and what's the mileage. Gotta love driving the car with all those aftermarket parts already installed

Great pick up.

CoryACG

Yea the nsx wheels had bald tires so I put the tl wheels on it to beat around on for a couple weeks until I got some new wheels. I picked it up for 9 with 150k on it. The car is a blast

CoryACG

Haha pics are coming soon, this is my first supercharged car... Idk what I was doing withy life before this lol

Is that ebony interior I see ? Navi ? You have a 1/10 car possibly ? So sick .

o0o0o0

iTrader: (1)

I see navi antenna, but to me it looks like parchment. either way awesome car.

CoryACG

Yea that's how I felt about it, woulda cost alot more if I would have built it myself

CoryACG

Yea it's parchment :/ Im debating on buying a cl with ebony and dealing the interior. I think there was only 45 white nav 6 speeds but I could be wrong

mikebikelife

iTrader: (3)

In another thread it was said only 16 white/ebony/navi and after crashed and dead cars 10 or so .

I've thought about it too but the parchment isnt terrible .

CoryACG

Yea you're right I'll probably end up keeping it

When I had an 01 clp it had parchment interior and it would stay getting dirty quick. I hated having to clean it. Imo black interior is the way to go on these cars, shoot I prettty much almost got a whole extra black interior lol.

CLassy02

Looking good! I love Tafetta White, such an amazing color. I feel you about trolls though, gets annoying. In for more pics though! Also videos!

CoryACG

U have a full black interior? Lol not sure if I misunderstood you

CoryACG

Thanks man! Hopefully I'll have some more pics up tonite

01Blacuras

CoryACG

Looks good.

DLntheCL

looks nice but id upgrade to coilovers and lower it more

CoryACG

It's on coilovers the fronts as low as it'll go until i buy shorter springs

mikebikelife

Wheels arent my favorite but looks really clean . Also , fishbowl .

CoryACG

Every body has their own taste, some people like authentic wheels that you don't see on every third car riding down the street and some people prefer trendy knockoffs. But to each their own, thanks for the compliment

clsallmotor01

looks good with the new wheels

DLntheCL

i dont think he was saying he doesnt like authentic forged, 3pc, made in japan, etc wheels, i think he was saying those specific wheels arent his favorite. i see what hes saying, at least for the CL, i think we all love work wheels but i would have chosen a different model. those look best on big body VIP style cars IMO.

tein springs and koni struts are not coilovers. coilovers enable you to adjust the height by the mm.

i dont know if its cus im used to seeing lower profile tires or what, but they look like donuts around the wheel and the fender gap enhances it. when its time for new tires id go lower profile and slam it. i ran 205/40s on 18x9 with no problems

CoryACG

Thanks for the input, if u look at the whole post youd see that the suspension you're referring to was what came stock on the car and that I bought tein coilovers that are in that big ass tein box, since its supercharged I wanted a wider tread path which is why I went with a 225.

Stephen00TL

I think the wheels look good and I like five spoke wheels. The offset on the from us a little high but they look good. All that matters is your happy with the way the car sits.

CoryACG

Thanks man, these were s2k fitment so I had to run spacers on the front, I'm gonna rebarrel them once I'm done with my project car

DLntheCL

i gotcha, i read everything, just didnt put it all together, i saw the tein box and read you had tein springs so i thought you just had springs.

i understand about wanting a wider tire for extra grip. im envious of all your under the hood mods

good luck!
