Sweet, I'm basically at the Bathurst and Major Mac , Tatewaki is at Elgin mills and Yonge, and there a bunch more of us in the area. We have been doing a bunch of DIY Mods together lately, so if you need and extra set of hands don't hesitate to get us a message through the board. We did a short ram Air intake, a Hyper Ground Kit today. Blacked out my headlights last week, along with SC354's Air resinator removal. My OEM bodykit is in the mail right now (going on this week the second I get it), and I am getting H&R Sport springs Installed with, tax for 480.

You didn't say the colour of the car you are getting. Check the past acura service records (just need the VIN and call the dealership) make sure the car hasn't had the trannie replaced.

Welcome to the board. There is a lot of information about your car, how to mod it, take care of it etc. The search feature is a true friend.

Everyone was a first time Acrua owner at one point, so don't be shy about asking questions.

ResidualFreedom the color of the car is Firepepper Red Pearl, and im getting this car
from a close family friend. He is leaving the country so he is selling the car to us for real cheap (well i believe it is cheap)

and it's nice to hear to you guys get together to mod ur cars... i want to make some mods to my car but i am clueless on what to do and what is available hahahaha..

oh and the car hasn't had a tyranny replacement hehe.... thank god...

OEM Kit makes all the difference. This should be your first mod. I believe you can get it around $650-$850..

OEM kit from Acura of Bellevue WA, they have the OEM kit shipped for 580. The only Acura Dealership that I could find with that deal.

The first MOD I would reccomend would be the airbox resinator removal, it makes the car sound meaner and allows the car to breathe better. And Best of all it's free!!

removing airbox resinator i see...... what exactly is the purpose of the airbox resinator in the first place though....

plus i have no clue as to how to remove it O_o;

heh thx for everyone that replies to this thread.. ^^

Tatewaki

The resonator box is to reduce the sound of the intake, think of it as muffler for the intake. removing the resonator box is easy. 30 min ought to do it. I once swapped headlights during a meet in a parking lot
