iCrap

he said it wouldn't matter.

anyways only things left on the car are the throttle body spacer (who cares), sway bar, aero bumper.
Have to leave the bumper or they will dock $800. I literally took the old one and showed the adjuster and he said yeah, just leave it as-is. I ended up pocketing a little over $100 for the bumper thing anyways though so that's fine i guess. I find it funny how they consider paint as a factor on a smashed car

my dad is trying to tell me i should just buy another tsx... lmao.

cu2wagon

Well, it seems to have done a decent job of keeping yo ass safe in this collision... *I'd* consider another one!

iCrap

if i do it'll be a 6spd for sure

VR1

Doooooo it. Or maybe TL Type S? If I had to do it again I think I would've bought a TL Type S lol.

iCrap

i looked a tiny bit for a type s but all the ones i saw were 140k miles +
still looking tho

but now we're thinking my dad buys an audi s5 and gives me his infiniti instead.
just test drove an s4, omg its amazing.

VR1

Yea and those 3.0 S/C cars make stupid power/torque with a tune.

ssjoeboe9

I win.. all day. just sayin...

rawger

So it was totaled? How much did you get for it?

VR1

I had my first encounter with a CT S/C Si a few months ago. No debate there lol. Can't remember how much power this guy said he made but I remember it was something crazy.

The only downfall to the Supercharger is that it's soooo addicting, I want more. I love modifying my car, but I never expected the "quest for power" to consume me. It's dangerous haha (financially speaking lol)

iCrap

I get the final word on Monday or Tuesday but the guy basically said yeah don't expect it to get fixed.

My guess for payout is 10k but who knows, could be more.

I'll do a little mini partout soon probably. I have a few interior bits, some lights, door sills, s2k tips, flash pro, speaker system, etc..

ssjoeboe9

*door stills

iCrap

ah yes *stills. silly me.

Do you have the exled license plate lights? I forget what led set you have. Mine are kind of dim.

Also what all do you have for the sound system?

iCrap

crap i toootally forgot to pull the LEDs out of the back. oh well. They weren't exled but they were bright as hell.

sound system is Alpine Type R set for the front, polk set for the rear. The sound system was damn good especially once i had dynamatted all the doors. Honda wiring harnesses for all the speakers, the drop in speaker adapters too. Then i also have the metra double din faceplate.
I think that's all for sound.. might be a few other little things. I have to go sort through the boxes and stuff.

Damn dude sorry to hear about the loss iCrap.. Glad you're ok...GO TO THE DOCTOR. CALL A LAWYER.. These fucking insurance companies are crooks, I'm sure they won't mind paying TOP dollar for your car without forking anything for post injuries.. Good luck with everything bro.

iCrap

^ Thanks.
Yeah i checked out OK, his insurance was actually really helpful. The lady said they'll cover all that. I should hear back in a few hours now if it's a total loss.....


I'm liking this one.. .https://www.truecar.com/used-cars-fo...013-acura-tsx/

xtcnrice

lol cu2wagon nice social media screen names

VR1

I've spend the last few days wondering if his avatar changes to something or if I'm going crazy. Still not sure which.

iCrap

I stared at it for a while until i figured out it's a non looping gif. It only flashes once until you reload the page.

opboarding

It flashes to the picture below. I saved his avatar and then uploaded to a gif exploder to see all of the images inside. We talked about it a few pages back.

urbanstereo

so in japan i only saw one CU2 accord. just one.

i saw a bazillion fits though

xtcnrice

Saw zero when I was there a few months ago. Seen 2 R34s among many other really cool cars though.

iSeeYouTwo

I don't know how difficult it'll be to get off, but I need the sunglass holder.. the spring on mine broke. So if you get yours off safely - you have yourself a buyer.

iCrap

I can't take off original equipment parts ^ only mods / aftermarket stuff.

Got this email today:

Acura Appreciation Days end soon! Come see us before 11/15/15 for your complimentary multi-point inspection + a portable Bluetooth® mini speaker (while supplies last).

Don't need the inspection... But sorta want the free speaker...

ulrblitzer

Got that email forwarded from another Azine user. Don't know if I really want to go thru the hassle for a free inspection. There's nothing wrong with my car that I know of. And I don't want my info in the local Acura's database for spam mail.

opboarding

The time spent waiting there and dealing with their bs isn't worth $5 (cheapest speaker on ebay).

ssjoeboe9

Every work email I get is Acura spam hahaha

xtcnrice

So true. Either gonna sound like fuzz, break in less than a week, or both.

VR1

Pretty cool video:

iCrap

If i end up getting that 2013 tsx will my 2010 hondata still work on it?

xtcnrice

Yeah. Just need to update the FP if anything. Even the TSX FP meant for the 1G can be used on our cars as long as it's updated.

Jaheri_cbp

I saw one on the 417 the other day.. Kinda hard to take a pic going 70

ssjoeboe9

ahhhh I miss 417 soooo much. Seriously the best road to cruise on... no cops.. and the road is so smooth!

ulrblitzer

Just got notice from Heeltoe to sign up for their thanksgiving/black friday specials and promotion. Might be worth it for anyone who's been on the fence about picking up some parts.

IIRC, last year was 10% or 15% off black friday.

cu2wagon

Haha! Sorry. Or not.

Yeah, it was my little homage du Halloween. It did loop eventually. I had it right on that threshold where you could watch it long enough to see it, but then it started to get painful just sitting still and staring. Amusingly, that time... only 30 seconds! Wonder if that says anything about our need-it-now, instant-access society where 30 seconds feels like an eternity.

Nothing tricky about this old avi... Or is there...

cu2wagon

There's a small chance I might be able to hook you up.

I've got the center roof console from a 1st Gen TSX / 7th Gen Accord. I pulled it out of storage last night and compared it to mine in the wagon. The 2G TSX console is overall a bit longer but the map light section and the sunglasses holder seem very similar.

Let me check if the sunglasses part will swap between the two and I'll get back to you.

iSeeYouTwo

Dude.. you would be a LIFE SAVER!!!

Too much bass caused mine to break... it's been about 2 years now and I want to fix it finally! Lol

iCrap

Canadian TSX doesn't have the blue under-dash lights? A guy was about to buy my spares but his car doesn't even have the wiring for it.
