That's a good question actually lol. As of right now I have no headers. I'm actually trying to convince the guy who bought my headers from Brian6speed to sell them back to me lol. I want them bad! As for intake manifold I have a 09 TL manifold with a p2r spacer and stock J32A2 throttle body so I can retain cruise control.

I'm also in a need of a clutch and I can't make up my mind if I should go back to a dual mass flywheel with self adjusting clutch just like oem or a aasco aluminum flywheel with a aftermarket clutch kit.

I'm also putting new oem engine mounts back in so there's less vibrations. I want to make the car enjoyable to drive and not get annoying after awhile.

I tried texting you about returning them for half the price you charged me, but you stopped replying to texts. Worst car purchase experience I've ever had.

I tried to convince you not to give up on installing them. If you modified the sub frame slightly they would've fit, they were so close. You let the company installing them convince you of building something new. I still want to purchase them back from Kevin for my car. I know they can easily work with a little modification. You shouldn't have gave up. I'm sorry it went that way for you Brian.

a Question?

Hello there! any one know how to R&R the rear seat in an 01 CL/S? Searching the threads doesn't seem to bring up any results? Thanks, Joe

It's been almost three years since I drove my cls and I finally got it back on the road again. I've been driving it the past couple of weeks with the new 3.5. It feels great to be back in it and will make a great daily driver since it has a new oem clutch and engine mounts in it now. I might sell it along with my tbss to get a nice diesel truck to be able to tow my ctsv wagon and pops car to the race track. If I do I'll make sure to post it on this forum.

Here's some pictures enjoy.

This would be a modified CL I would actually consider buying. Most that come up for sale have been ragged on hard.

I bought a replacement for my wrecked one just a few days after making that comment. I would have greatly preferred this one, though. Performance-wise, I either have or am in the process of installing many of the same modifications that this one has, too. I'm going a little more extensive on my J35A3, but still using OEM parts.

I really hope this car goes to someone who actively uses the forum. I'd like to see a lot more of this car.
