I use 2 catch cans the bigger they are the better they work in my opinion I have super balls inside of the filters to keep them closed they will blow open if pressure builds up in the can I don't think they ever do I just like the way they look It's a (link)
I've actually been semi-regretting not getting an IS350 or V6 TSX, at least. Drove a rental 2015 MDX a few days ago and even though it's a big car, it still hauled ass.

I wanted a G37 or WRX, but noooo Ah well, next time.

It does... I fucking hooned the shit out of my rental LOL. It tops out at a governed 130
Wat? Didn't you just get them painted like 3 weeks ago?

Yeah Miss them already, but it was the right move. Those wheels had several issues - Hub size was too small, so they didn't fit without a spacer. Also they used to be chrome and apparently I didn't strip them correctly (I had them sand blasted vs chemically stripped - $200 vs $600) and the paint was beginning to flake off.
Not to mention I'm moving to a different apartment so I needed the cash.
Next up, I acquired a set of Volks that I will be refinishing. Won't be revealing which they are, but they are 19's.

Either that black Evo does not have those parts. Of that driver is terrible. My good friend has a white Evo 8 here that has those exact same mods. And it would shit on all 3 of these cars listed."

Love at beginning you say "oh I'm gonna smash this" and at end "oh, they don't wanna run me from a dig" haha wow u obviously don't know shit about AWD. And if he was tuned with launch control! U wouldnt stand a flies chance in hell!
The mod lists on the both Evos aren't correct. No way."
Speed limit was 45 and I was slowing down for a red light. I caught it by accident, was trying to toggle the display to show the efficeincy meter but pushed the odo button instead. Chuckled at the 6s and the 9s and was able to snap a pic. Briefly considered about punching it to 69mph but thought better of it.
Although I will admit I pulled into a parking lot and slowly crept around the perimeter to capture the rollover from 5999 to 6000.

also i think i really overpaid for mine
G37 is nice too. I love the exhaust note on those cars. So nice. Only thing is they all are terrible on gas (IS350/G37). They'd barely break 19 mpg in the city, if you are lucky and 25-27 highway. That's the trade off for more power though.

Don't get me wrong, the 4 is definitely peppy, but you can't beat the pull you feel from a V6. Definitely jealous of the guys with 6 on the forums. And you can't go wrong with a 0-60 in 5 seconds with a 350.
Yeah the lack of power compared to a V6 is pretty substantial and noticeable. I came from a 2G TL which has a 3.2L J series engine, like an outdated version of a non-Type S 3G TL. The tq was definitely nice, and the engine sound was definitely a bit more mature than a Honda 4 banger
I made the decision to try owning a 4 banger this time around and I'm quite happy with it. Sure pickup isn't nearly as quick, but I suspect my car will eat a V6 on very technical roads/courses, which IMO is a lot more fun than highway pulls but that's just me. I'm sure I'd feel differently if I boosted my car and started taking on quicker cars on the freeway lol
I only wish I had been more patient and gotten myself a 6MT instead of this crappy "tech". Otherwise, love my car
Dude, just buy the Supercharger already. It's honestly soooooo fun! And youll be able to get like 2/3 of your money back when you go to sell it for parts. That means you can basically have a supercharger for ~$1300. That's a pretty good deal for immeasurable pleasure and fun!
like i said before i'd have the supercharger already if not for the auto. it ruins the fun, every time. Stupidly long gears and no revmatching whatsoever.
So my rear trunk lip spoiler is finally fading after like 3-4 years. It was the one I picked up from ebay for like $120..
I think I might tape off the trunk and try to rattle can it. Has anyone found a spray that's really similar to PWP?
Sorry no solution here but merely a suggestion.
Try searching other forums outside of Azine as well. PWP is a very popular colour as it's been around for a while now... I'm sure some dude in an RSX, Civic, Accord, or something similar has probably done this already. Might get more results this way.
IIRC, MC found a very close-to-OEM rattle can for BWP. This doesn't really say anything about PWP but, maybe that brand carries the PWP equivalent as well?

All you have to do joe is search in amazon or ebay your paint chip code "nh624p" and you will find tons of options. I would recommend using a good primer if just painting over or adhesion promoter if u are sanding back down to plastic. I would start off lightly sanding, priming, painting, hit with a good two-part rattle can of clear, wet sand, then polish and it should look good as new.. Here's one I found quickly on Amazon.

I don't like the mismatched looked on white. But someone else should grab this carbon fiber rear trunk lip.

Yeah I wrapped my bumper exhaust plug in 3m dinoc out of sheer convenience and quickness because it came silver and used from rhd japan, didn't think I was going to like the carbon fiber look but it blended in quite nicely with the black.. the cf looks good with the black
I'm skeptical of the seller and quality of it and the potatoe pictures don't really do it any justice. I'd want to see a picture of it on a CBP before I bought that.
Didn't Vr1 recently get a deck lid installed? Post some pictures if you get the chance, kind sir. Still debating if I want one.
Ah well, next time.
