Yeah I've been following his o4AT to o5MT swap thread closely and noticed the things you said. I just, for some reason, thought he had installed the s/c by now... especially since there hasn't been any updates.
I have a 6m/t myself and it's definitely a beast... was able to handle a TL-S auto[stock] head to head with just an intake and TB spacer.
6spd is definitely nice.

 

Very nice cars, both of you. I was actually lucky enough to check out Eric's car in person a few weeks ago when I was picking my car up from service, and man that car is rediculous. Oh and by the way the rear is nice and clean with a Type-s lip spoiler; it actually inspired me to look in to getting one lol. Oh and mmade22 props on the garage one of the cleanest garages I have ever seen.

 

some sick cars you have there.... i m really thinking about taking a road trip to NC my sister lives there and some friends i know ...wintsion salem and durem i think thats how you spell it .... But if i do go down there i diff wanna do a meet

 

Very nice! I like the gold/white combo of the rims. I am thinking of doing that as well. What offset is he running?

And yes, it does look like the nicest TL's are in North Carolina! Maybe I will run past you guys on the highway when I am going to the beach this summer!

 

It's been awhile since I've seen that car. Last time was at the Promenade like a year ago. It's come a long way!

 

SICK WHIPS!!! hats off to you both! CLEAN GARAGE mmade22 no wonder u got the DIY's on lock!...lol

 

ACCURATEIN....i have got to see ur whip in person....SHEESH!!!

 

both cars and the garage look great!

jon, how's the lowered suspension holding up after all those miles?

 

haha nice thread Jon! I was inside playing with legos when Jon was taking these spy shots.

I must say mmade22 is one hell of a nice guy. He done numerous things for me and the TL. His garage is immaculate as you can see in the pictures. It's equipped with everything..computers, speakers, full size fridge, the whole works. It definitely serves as a big inspiration to purchase a house with a 2 or 3 car garage.

Thanks for assistance Jon, and the dinner was phenomenal by the way.

 

Thanks brah! and Yes indeed, WDP FTMFW! My cousin painted it, i'll ask him what he did. I think i remember him saying three coats of the pearl.


Thanks man!

I love his garage too, you should see it in person.

haha, The michael jordan TL is the Honda R&D racecar TL. Lance Armstrong is a more fitting title for my TL. (enduring)


Well the main guy held responsible for that dilemna is a guy by the name of Clint Davis. He is the art director for Import Tuner.

haha thanks Don!

haha, thats what ARC calls them. Funny guys.

Your eyes are serving you correct. I get the question from time to time..."what turbo are you running"? haha

It's a small world, you'll see it one day im sure.

Thanks! Search my username for threads started and you'll find a plethora of images.

I do have a 5AT we can trade on!!

Good eyes! Yes, my man Justin with the NBP TL did the knuckle swap for me.

haha, the motor, and the paint, and more things.

No probems yet! Come on down in March for the acura meet. I forget where it's at, but check it out on the meets section and bring the Kinetic beauty down here.

I haven't touched the cats or mounts yet, but will eventually.

haha, they are stretched! Theyre the old 235 invos off the bronze TEs.

 

haha it looks like it should be under the hood for sure! I've got a couple reasons for not having installed it yet...

-I want to get a feel for the car NA
-I miss the sound of the VTEC crossover
-I want the motor and tranny to last longer. With a lot of the weight taken out of the car, traction is already an issue.

I remember meeting you! You had the NBP 6MT if i remember correctly. Join us for the acura meet we've got organized for march. Check it out in the meets section over under off topic.

Durham! My parents live there. Let me know if you're ever down visiting, and we'll see about meeting up.

Thanks! 43 offset all the way around.

There's a good chance you'll see Jon on the road. He's forever on the highway.

Thanks man. I'm frequently at the promenade, as some other friends have spotted my TL there.

You'll see it one day!

Vinny! what up son. Thanks for the words my man.

 

Nice ride(s).

 

Both cars are looking great. I maintain faith that we'll see Eric's TL in Honda Tuning or Import Tuner one day.

 

i ll diff hit you guys up when i go down there that would be a mistake to vist down there and not check out your ride...NC is very nice there and nice weather and nice long high ways.... i was thinking about moving down there a while back just alittle slow for me but you never know

 

Beautiful cars!

 

wettttttt! i remember seeing ACCURATEin's car at HIN landover MD last spring but i didnt get to see him, i guess he stepped away for a bit.

 

Is this TL boosted if so what size turbo and what front bumper is that

 

No turbo. It sports the Comptech Supercharger. The front bumper is from a company called Versus.

 

somebody put in alot of ranch time.

 

I made something for yah!

I couldn't sleep and got bored.. So I thought I'd doodle and came up with this:

I've been wanting to draw ACURATEin's car for a while [especially after drawing Rocky's].
I thought the image was poopy so then... I turned to your thread mmade22.
I figured, why draw just ACURATEin's car.. when I can draw yours as well.
2 lovely WDPS.




I feel a bit bad, though. Drawing it took a while... and I started to get tired so your car, mmade22, got a little sloppy and less detailed. =[

 

^haha thats pretty funny that you started to get tired....but i like the drawing they look pretty good

 

Feel bad? That is great man, I love that you spent anytime at all drawing my car. Eric's got the ride which needs all the detail as there is a ton of detail going on. Great job man!

I looked at this thread and can't help notice how plain my ride looks compare to Eric's. Man that nose really sets his car off right.

I have been one of the lucky ones to take a ride in Eric's car. I also have a 6mt and the engine is very strong. His car with all the weight removed, is a whole nother animal. The sound that you get without the interior and when it hits v-tech, it is pure bliss. Eric makes it look he has been driving a 6 speed since day one.

That car with the Comptech supercharger is going to be a pure animal.

 

^^

He ever get his exhaust hooked back up or is he still Cat-back-less?

Sounded really mean without the catback.

 

lol

 

SC w/ a intercooler? i thought SC uses aftercoolers

 

from what I understand, comptech made like 2 aftercoolers for the RSX.. The guy with the RSX is a friend of mine and he's one of two.

Eric just custom fitted an RSX intertercooler onto his supercharger.

 

yea but an intercooler does not cool a supercharger? is it just for looks? i know the guy with the CTAC, he has a blue rsx right? lickmywanker or somethign on crsx

 

the cars look sick

 

yup lol. i just saw him 2 days ago, lol. his car used to look total sleeper, till he put that sick ass CF rep wing,. lol. ricer!! but yea, the person that sold it to him was RON, s/c black rsx-s..

 

Jim i saw your TL earlier in the week. It was lookin good!

 

o4Komodo ... I feel special you took the time to draw some images of our TLs.

I've got a drawing of various cars on my wall i did when i was 17 or 18. It was so detailed i never finished it. You've got me inspired to take it off the wall and add a TL in the picture.

 

Guys, you should have seen me and Jon earlier today. We attempted to install the rear ingalls camber kit on my car, but failed. Our completion rate was 25%,...we were only able to get the left rear camber arm installed. For the other three arms, the bolts were laughing at us. Those bitch's were'nt going anywhere.

 

Car looks awesome man . Very glad to see it so much closer to completion . I hope to see you at the meet in March . I love my 6spd .

 

^^^^^^ I totally agree, iz very nice

 

both look nice but the one to the right the ron jon wheels are ugly sorry. and the one to left. why have the intercooler on right now if your na right now. im sure your going to put the blower back on. Seem like what a ricer would do roll around with fmi but no blower or turbo.

 

^^

The reason for the intercoller before the supercharger is because he needed to fit it in place before he could mount up the new bumper. Why would Eric want to do double the work if he is putting the supercharger in the car in the near future? That would require taking the bumper back off and mounting the intercooler. Makes no sense to a person who has taken this bumper off.

I could understand if the guy bought the intercooler without the supercharger, but since he has all the parts, he isn't fooling anyone. Give the guy some time to work on the car and put it in.

The Ronjons aren't for everyone and I feel the same way about a lot of things in life......The difference between you and I is, my parents told me, if I have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.......Kindergarden 101
