Looks great, damn those rotors are huge!!!!

 

Love the pics!


How do you feel about how the rotors look?

 

Car looks great. i was curious about the JDM lights. do they just have the amber removed or do they have a clear reflector installed on them. Would it be possible to get a high res picture of the headlight its self

 

Theres a clear reflector in there. Anyone wana donate some amber lenses to me to make some clears?

Zelaya- Per usual the car is hands down RIDICULOUS! LOL nice work man

 

Thank you. Yes they're huge...

Thanks man. The rotors feels very good. Haven't hit my brakes hard since I got them bedded but trust me they stop. This rotors are huge and they compliment with the calipers. I did though on getting 380mm rotors for the front but kept them the same as the rears.

Thank you! This is what I could find.





Thanks man. Are you going to the next car show this Sunday?

 

No it's more than just clear reflectors and here's the differents vvvv


From what I know the difference between the US and JDM are:
-JDM headlamp is slightly smoked
-US Headlamp is clear
-JDM Clear corner
-US Amber corner
-JDM cut off shield is reversed so the left side beam shoot further
-US beam on the right shoot further
-JDM headlamp - right side projector tilt more when you turn right
-US Heamplamp - right side projectot tilt less when you turn right

 

Love it......

 

that actually sounds like the cutoff is going to be dangerous when driving on a right hand drive street with cutoffs meant for left hand.

That said, absolutely amazing looking car. I don't like the modded RL lights with the amber just removed...this is much, much cleaner. And I'm a huge fan of work wheels! Nicely done, sir.

 

so clean! not a huge fan of those WORKS but still a very nice setup...lower it a little more

 

Sorry, I meant the color. How do you feel about the color?

 

Oh! I really like it now and it has grow on me on a quick turn around. It blends very well with white.

 

sickest RL in the game right now!

 

hmmm. zelaya do you get warning lights on like afs or anything saying something is wrong with your headlights? because from my research the passenger side headlight is the one that indicates to teh computer if anything is wrong.

 

Looking awesome bro....did u take some interior shots as well ???

 

love your RL bro hot pixs

 

Thank you Blazing. Haven't seen you in the forum since you got your bimmer. Hope you're enjoying it.

Actual no problem at all. The headlamps has the us ballast and ignitor only as the Japan version comes without ballast, etc....My headlamps works same as the OEM one I had before

Thank you sir. Soon I will include interior photos as I did a slight change since the last time you saw with Supercomputers pedals.

 

Thank you man!!!!

 

damn!! hands down love this rl, i should have got the white rl but didn't like the interior at all, it was tan, is yours tan or the topa color(beige) i think its called. but yet love mine black on black.

man your car makes me want to have those bbk. would that size work with stock wheels? they look huge as mentioned before. how much if you dont mind me asking have you spent on that kit?

like the wheels but wish they were more staggered yet i know it isnt good for an awd staggered but would look awesome if they were.

yet still loving it.

 

Thanks for the compliment....... My interior is black which was very hard for me to find on this combo. In regards to my BBK, I will need 5mm wheel spacers for my OEM 17 inch wheels to fit. Rotora was nice to give me sponsorship so unfortunately I can't disclosure that information but I can refer you to my rep that can provide you with pricing if you're interested.

 

Taupe.

 

dang black interior, nice, yea i found one after i bought my rl, found one south va but it was an 05 and had 100k miles for $18k so i was like good i got mine. and mine only had one owner.

also dam so if you need 5mm spacers, the aspec wheels wont fit with that kit? also i would like to speak to your rep, and see what brake kit i can go with. i really want bbk but i have seen some prices and its more than i can afford and to get sponsored, that's amazing. wish i can get sponsored.

well that's real cool man white on black. love it now more.

hey question for your hid fogs, did you use a relay, on my previous tl i had an 06 so i did the accord mod and didn't need them because the high beams didn't shut them off. but with the rl and 07-08 tl i notice the high beams do shut off the fogs. would this affect if i don't use the relay?

oh and thanks 007spy, your a trooper on my grammar.

 

Rotora only makes one type of brake kit for the RL. 6 piston for front and 4 piston for rears, If you're really interested I can PM you his info. In regards to the hid kit for the fog, it's plug n play without no relay.

I was lucky to find the combo color for my car and to be second owner. The previous owners were old folks and they kept the car prestige condition. The leather was no broken yet and smell like new.

 

HAHAHA. I wasn't trying to correct you. The only reason I posted it was b/c you said,

I'm a jerk, but not big enough of one to correct people's grammar. Well, except for the guy who doesn't use periods. Or was that you?

 

Fucking love your car!

 

Thanks Tyler...../

 

I still post from time to time. Just very busy with a lot of planning especially with the baby on the way. Still enjoying the car tho!

 

Are you going to run those work wheels during winter? if not what kind of wheels are you going to run for winter since i heard the oem wheels don't fit bc of your bbk

 

NO, I will remove my work wheels for the winter. I will be putting back my oem acura with 5mm spacers for my BBK clearance.

 

where did u get the 5mm spacer?

 

oo7spy, it was joking i dont take it offensively. And that was me. Happy, i am using periods. see there was like 3. lol.

and thanks for the info on no relay for the fogs zelaya. and i am interested in the brakes i want to see how much they will be. probably like $3-4k. hmmmmmm.... quick question on the spacers, do they have extended studs on them? because what i herd is if you put small spacers your putting more force/ weight on the stock studs.

 

I haven't order them but planning soon before the winter comes. They quoted me 2 weeks turn around. Call Motorsport Technology 775-351-1000. Here's the website

http://www.motorsport-tech.com/

No problem. In regards to the spacer and bolts, yes it's recommended to get longer bolts which Motorsport Technology can maybe supply you with that. The brake kit will cost more than 4k. Once you're ready I can PM you Rotora information.

 

Very very nice..

With the big brake kit in the back.. were you able to use the existing parking brake drums??

Where are you located in MD.. Car looks beautiful..

 

Drums? They are disc brakes all the way around.

 

nice car love the fog lights behind the grille

 

^^^ yes but the rear parking brake it the drum, is what he is saying....

I know it is that way in the 05 TL....dont know about RL's....

 

O I C... nvrmndthx

 

Thank you......The rear one comes on built in drum brakes to replace the OEM but overall front and back are 14 inch rotors. My office is located in Bethesda, MD

Rear one has drum. I should have taken photos before installing.

Thank you

 

by the end of the year; my car will have those bbk; mugen kit; and a special color!!! but im gonna stay with oem aspec wheels!!! your car is inspiration!!

 

Whatcha gonna do with that Aspec lip?

Zelaya, are you saying you upped the rotor size?
