Car looks great! Don't you have a set of Work wheels you're planning on installing after winter?

What license plate bulbs do you have in there? They look good, I might have to get a pair.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I got my first DSLR camera last month for xmas so I am still very new to photography...hoping to turn it into a hobby.

Work wheels will be on VERY soon. Ive been waiting for it to snow here in Vancouver but there is no sign of it what so ever (strange)...So I feel confident enough to put em on.

Yes I am pissing haha, my friend took that picture of me and I thought it was funny.

My friend and I both have license plate LED's. I got mine from a local LED store. I have an extra set lying around so I'll take some pics and post them up later...its pretty much 4 white LED bulbs per stick.

LED bulb vs stock bulb.

I also made a semi-appointment to get my wheels on so pics of those will be posted later too.

nope there is no brand lol. He has an LED supplier in Japan or something and he gets it from there...he then repackages it himself and sells it. I felt like I could trust the quality though because I compared it to my brother's LED's which he got from a well known LED vendor in Vancouver and mine seemed to be of same perhaps better quality.

Yea the CSX has a K20Z2 i think...which puts out 155hp and 139tq. I have to say though the k20 is a freaking amazing engine. It is very responsive to mods and when I go on spirited runs with him in the rural areas, there have been 2 times when I couldnt even pass him in a straight line (from a roll though). Guess our cars are just too damn heavy!


Also, dramirez, 2 of your pics are not working . Nice looking LED's man!

I drove the CSX as a loaner a number of time, it's fun to drive.

The interior is not as nice as the TSX but it's a definite step up from Civic as it comes with Navi and leather seating as standard equipment. You can always move up to the Type S model and have the Si 197hp engine complete with 6MT and LSD.

The CSX is no TSX. Even when in Type-S dress the interior doesn't come close to the TSX. I test drove the Civic Si 4DR and the CSX Type-S. There is no comparison.

What modification does the CSX have. What transmissions are the said cars equipped with?

Disregard the question about transmissions as I see you have a 6MT.

The CSX is auto with a DIY intake. Mine is stick with intake and exhaust. No joke the CSX is very quick in the top end especially from 2nd gear Vtec up. I powered shifted 3rd and 4th too but I suppose its the power to weight ratio.

I've been itching to put my summer wheels and tires back on but Feb sometimes comes with some last laughs from old man winter.

Where did you get the LEDs from? I will be in Vancouver in a couple of weeks and would like to pick some up.

What intake do you have?

Hey lou just pm me when your here in vancouver and ill let you know where I got them and my intake is takeda.

As for my rims, they are officially on! They look really nice but honestly they look kinda off cause the rest of my car is way too stock looking. I know it will look amazing once my car is lowered and I get some dark tints and a black roof, but right now it just doesnt look complete. My overlays are going on on tuesday. Here are some wheel pics...im not satisfied enough to post any more atleast until my car is lowered haha which will hopefully be within 2-3 weeks.









and just for fun..my dad got his new car yesterday. Can anyone guess what it is?

That's one of the first sets of dark wheels on a white car that I like. Looks good!

Is there no centercap for the wheels?

and my dads car is the new A8! He wanted the S8 originally but my bro crashed my moms MDX which my dad unfortunately had to pay for...hes paying my dad back slowly, very slowly.

My lucky guess! The A8 is a great car with 360hp, the S8 Lambo V10 with 450hp may be an overkill in Vancouver. What happened to the MDX? Is your bro a N driver.

Hes my older bro and yea he still had his N. Hes been driving long eough to go for his class 5 but he never went for it. He fell asleep at the wheel and totalled the MDX..luckily he was fine but then my dad could have got an S8 lol Mom drives a TL SHawd now which is a blast
