Wassup fellas, I juts bought an 02 TL type s the other day and thought i sign up on this well known forum. Seems like theres a lot of good info around here. TL will be my daily driver but i do plan on Putting some coil springs on her and maybe a CAI. Its silver and in really good shape! Got a deal at $4200!!

Im also a member on LS1TECH. I own a 2000 Camaro SS with a 454 lsx motor and a 150 shot on c16. thats my track car!

So far I have added half a bottle of seafoam in the motor oil, & 1 bottle in the gas tank. I plan on running another bottle in the gas as well. picked up some NGK Iridium plugs too. Im debating on Powder coating the stock type s rims i have and painting the calipers like a dark red color and slamming it on tein h springs.

Welcome, let's see some pictures of both cars. Also you will not be slamming the car with tein h tech springs. They are the highest spring you can get for our cars. Look into tein s techs, eibach prokit, or h&r race springs to go lower. Also if you want to slam your best bet is going to be coilovers.

Well i dont want to slam it that much. i just want to drop it a bit. the gap right now is pretty high. im also a little worried i might blow out the stock shocks (145,000) by adding in a lowering spring.

I'll try and get pics of the acura tomorrow after a restore the headlights.

heres the camaro

I Would Recommend H&R Springs but thats becouse I own them only... they Get you down enough to not be embarrassed by that high fender wall...

Roads here suck big time. Lowering for me won't be anytime soon.

At145k miles the shocks are already blown. I agree with skirmish about the h&r sport springs.

TLer trash

I agree as well. The h&rs ride better than eibachs at an equal drop. Also, lots of people here have had their shocks crap out right after lowering. Mine only had 35,000 miles when I lowered it, and they went out in less than a month. Do them together; don't waste your time.

Any good sponsors on here that sell them for a good price? And as for shocks, what's a good replacement. Nothing to expensive since this is my daily driver.

How do you guys feel about the $60 cold air intakes on eBay? I'm planning on getting one but ordering an AEM filter instead of using the crap they send in the kit.

Stephen00TL

There are a few sponsors check out the vendors section. I would do h&r sport springs with tokico blues if your on a budget. I am going to upgrade to koni yellows when I find them for a good deal. I personally feel if your going to buy an ebay intake you might as well make a custom one.

thanks man. I'll probably do the h&r springs.
