I'm Still in pain. I decided to fix it with my insurance money. Even though it was a total loss i couldn't let it go.

 

AHHHHH!!! So sorry man. Amazed to see you're typing here. Glad an Acura owner's OK. Now, go with a 3.5 engine swap with a 6 speed. How much you end up getting anyway?

 

Word search for a front clip than do a 3.5 L swap

 

Sorry to hear about your ride playa. I'm surprised your gonna fix it. That front end looks crumbled badly. The 3.5 engine is from the 3rd gen TL right? Is that a hard conversion to complete(6speed conv)?

 

while your at it you might as well go with an 03 front end conversion........

 

Nah talking about the 1st Gen RL engine and CL 6spd

 

ah i thought they meant 3.5 outta the MDX w/ cl-s/accord 6spd

kinda like cocoa's 1g-CL

 

OUCH. glad your ok.. im suprised you are going to fix it. the front frame looks pretty mangled. I would check and see how much it would cost to straighten the frame first and see if its worth it. might be easier to just buy another TL of that same year and just swap over your parts. but if you do fix her i wish you the best and glad your ok.

 

I think you can use either, I think Clean CL has the 02-03RL.

 

honda odyssey swap! LOLOL

to the orig poster -- sorry to hear, i would hate to let it go too. any plans on what lies in the future?

 

ouch

 

I dont think that motor works. You need a Odyssey or mdx block with type-s heads (there are only certain years those work as well)
OR the type-s block (which i would use) with the MDX/Odyssey crank and rods

 

Very ouch! Best wishes man,,,

 

That really sucks!!! Been in one accident in my car so far....and close to others with idiot drivers that live in my city. I always worry about the front since I have irreplaceable headlights.

You started your membership on the wrong foot too as I see you posted your very first thread with your accident. Hopefully things will look brighter from now on!

 

very good to hear ur building the car back, good luck with everything
