hehe, thanks guys. Oh, don't worry, I live with a TL nut. You should have seen how nervous my dad was to put in those tails. He gets so nervous when I put things into my car...and he's even worse when it comes to his car. I changed my valve cover to the JDM Type R cover while he was at work and he was flipping out. Oh well, guess he doesn't want me to break anything

Father and son... both into cars. How lovely!!

I wish my family was like that. It's more like I'm the fanatic while they are more into practicality.

Anyway, welcome to the board. Nice car. I've always liked the Civic Si. What have you under the hood? I can see the AEM CAI but do you have anything else? I see rims too. Are thoes custom made seats?? Keep up the good work.

AND BTW, like Black Shadow said, we are TL FANATICS... so stay at your own risk!

*LOL*

You guys are the Honda/Acura family!!!

You've got a lot of mods on your ride. Nice.

How's the rear upper strut? When I had my G5 lude, I considered getting it but decided against it cuz it was going to reduce the trunk space which I already didn't have enough of!!

the rear strut is okay. It seems a little less sloppy when i get into turns i guess. Maybe it's all in my head. I don't usually put too much in the trunk...but I can still fit a set of golf clubs so i'm happy! I like the way it looks...if it was worth the $120? I dunno.

I like those leather seats. Always liked Honda products: had an '84 MB5 moped, '88 Prelude, '97 Accord and now the TL. I'd love to mod it, but probably will more likely spend extra cash on stuff like vacations, HDTV, save for downpayment on next car...

Other rides from the past: '66 Impala SS convertible, '79 320i, '86 Mitsu Starion Turbo, '88 RX-7 convertible.

In highschool, a buddy got a CRX and I was sold on Hondas since!

nah, i like TL's and all.....but i know i'd have more fun in my car then in the TL. Now...when the 6 spd TLS comes out...we might have a different story. Dad?? Are you listening? In all seriousness, if I could get another car, without a doubt, I WANT THE S2000. It is the most amazing car, period.

Cool what's up TL guys....!

Hey, I just joined the forum. My dad (winkly2000) has a TL....maybe you saw his post? Anyway, that's my Si in the pics...I belong to ClubSi.com and a few other forums. Anyway, if you don't mind having a civic guy on your site...i'll be around!

Here are a few pictures of my 99 Si.

Thumbs up

Pete,
Hey Welcome.. there are many ppl who drive other cars than the TL here. Seems like you and your dad really like cars. That is so cool!

As long as you are into cars, I'm sure you will fit right in here.
