I went to RB the other day to test fit the HT-Spec Stage 5 BBK on the TSX. While I was there I got an eye and earful of info to share with you! The photostream is on Flickr, linked here:

I didn't say that. V6 manuals have different brakes than the other models. So if you have a V6 manual it will fit your car. But not all 8th gens.

The 09+ Acura TSX and 08+ Accord share a platform. We are expecting many parts to interchange on the chassis. A rear TSX BBK may work on Accord but this is all too soon to know right now.

I was thinking about making them...they might be kinda pricey though. that is a bit off topic. You can email for details.
