Hey there

I own a 06 TL Auto

XLR8 Cat back
XLR8 J-Pipe
AEM V2
XLR8 Motor Mounts
(forgot brand) bushings from heel toe

It is my daily driver but plan on lowering it later with a good spring/shock combo

I am active duty US Navy currently on deployment so I will be posting in random times throughout the day because of changing time zones. I look foward to reading and learning about our cars and meeting some cool members along the way.

In terms of reading and learning about our cars a good place to start is "the garage" - https://acurazine.com/forums/third-g...-first-553557/

Hey!
Have you considered a 6MT swap?

Thanks Steven

Black_Seven - That would be way to much work for the end result IMO. Before I left for deployment I had a S13 swapped with RB25DET that was my toy car that i could drive around. I will just keep this thing slow but sounding nice and looking nice. I read up on the ECU swap but with all that work it seems like it would be easier to find a Standalone ECU if they make one.

Welcome and thank you for service, it's sad that not too many people appreciate service man/woman anymore.

Thanks guys and truonghthe not everyone understands the privlages and rights they have anymore, but what can you do? Aslong as there is people willing to leave their families for 7-8 months to go support wars they may or may not agree on thats all that matters in the end. All I want is for people to keep paying there taxes so I can feed my family. I could care less what some person tells me what they feel about the military. I don't make the decisions I just get paid to complete them. Sorry about the soapbox haha if anyone has questions about the Ship life or basic Surface Navy I am more than happy to answer them.
