you're usually spot on and level headed, I see you running with the big boys in Car Talk.

except, you forgot about gearing.
the 8DCT provides close ratio gearing.

So, even tho it is a heavier car; Honda uses gearing tricks to scoot the car into 1st gen TSX territory.

cool just found out i don't have rush on much, since i still have a year left on my 4 year bumper to bumper

Whoops, my bad! I accidentally deleted part of my post so the wording was off.
I wasn't comparing it to the new ILX, but I meant that my friends 2006 2.4 TSX has 5 more hp then my 2.4 2013 TSX does. If we had the DCT also, I wouldn't be complaining, but we have the 5 spd! WTF! The 2006 TSX has more HP then the 2013 TSX.

This forum is very public so I cannot say what I do, or do not know about Honda designs. But just remember that any manufacturer (including Honda, the big 3, and any other automotive) have a very short time to introduce new features on a Minor Model Change. I can speak for everyone at Honda that we are working as hard as we can to give our customers what they want!

iCrap

PR speak!

Gotcha. Not trying to pry any information out of you or anything.

I think it would be awesome to have a career based on cars...

Wrapped my friends car today.. What a huge PITA that stuff is.

iCrap

Jaheri_cbp

Bwahahaha! Gotta get some ratchets duuuude smh sigh. U tried just grabbing the outer edge of the bolt and pulling in the tighten direction?.. Seems like u have tried quite a bit to get it out.. Dude a hacksaw is your best bet and just saw through the socket but that's going to take a lot of sawing.. Sucks dude sorry.

MC MiYoung3269

Swapped out the ghetto rigged system he got done by CVT lol

xtcnrice

so, legit vip status now . How much did his new system cost him? Install time?

VR1

Attempted the roof but the wrap folded on itself, and we couldn't fix it. Ended up doing a stripe with the rest of the wrap lol.

i will look for some ES mounts for that size. if they have them I will take off the sway bar....

xtcnrice

heh I was only kidding, but if you're willing to, it's 17mm (52300-TL2-A01).

MC MiYoung3269

Forgot, but he split the whole kit with a friend. His friend wanted the bags, and he wanted the system lol. We spent like 8 hours total swapping the system out. This includes running to stores to get fittings lol

xtcnrice

not a fan of stance and all... but these guys from Belarus know how to do custom work. None of that lumpy shit. Might be a repost... 2012-2013.

Acura TSX 2010. The first stanced in Belarus - Page 3 - StanceWorks

Post 72 and onwards. Post 78 gets more intense.

iCrap

That one looks way better than the lumpy shit but still the bumpers don't quite fit on there right.

double post

He's on his build thread on Azine:

https://acurazine.com/forums/photogr...my-tsx-802268/


I want his exhaust setup so bad..

iirc he actually imported the TSX from the US to Belarus.

Yeah it's been a while since we have heard anything from Drull..

iCrap

all the images in that thread are dead

Vibrating noise when stopping in drive, or going into reverse.. Any ideas? I think it only happens in the morning.

iCrap

clean the TB

iTrader: (1)

yep, very rookie.
and I knew it as soon as i got it stuck.

VR1

Did cleaning yours make a difference?

iCrap

Yeah a little bit. But a 4cyl at idle isn't exactly the smoothest thing to begin with also lol.

Expect some vibration no matter what.

xtcnrice

Yeah remember my PCD cold start vid? Lawn mower city lol. If I did a warm start it should sound a lot better. And my car only has 12,000 km as of last weekend

iCrap

yup lol. That horrible noise is what made me pass on the PCD for now lol.
