is every transmission replaced by Acura has 100k warranty from the date of replacement? or as soon as the car hits 109k the tranny is not under warranty? becayse it says in his description that it is under a warranty from the date of replacement for another 100k miles.

yea thats not a good pic, cause the hood looks like its semi open like its crashed, and "smoke" coming out. Looks like it got F'd up. But of course he prolly has the hood open a lil.

thanx for the compliment.


when he said 240hp i think he meant after all the bolt on mods, not counting the nitrous gives him 240 at the crank which is around 200whp. sounds about right to me

Did he ever give you a ride in it while spraying? Any 1/4 times? I have pretty much the same mods as him and just curious.

Yeah it's 109 and that's it. Once you blow your tranny after that you can call your wallet "fucked!"

Yup. It's called i confused the car for being one of tri-states for some reason...for some reason i thought those "RIDE" logos on ppls avatars meant that they were part of that car club. For some reason i keep thinking tri-state as in PA/NJ/DE, but I know it's actually PA/NJ/NY...
