No i actually got it from the carmax in Laurel MD... I coming from a pretty Modded Type-R so im not sure how much im going to mod but i plan on doing the NAv Hack and probably a CAI, if i come across a ATLP Quad i might pick that up but thats pretty much it. What were you alls first mods?

yea the car max sticker was gone before i drove it off the lot, i picked it up for 27995 with 20K miles on it... 6Spds are hard as hell to find and this one was close. I sold my integra that morning and went to carmax and bought her. It was Bitter Sweet, and i think my first mods will be Tint and a CAI.

Yea the 6spd look like they tend to cost a little bit more but i think it was worth it so far.

Nice whip!! Wish I got the TypeS..!

You will like the gearbox.. I would recommend the Comptech short shifter as one of your first mods..

My first were springs..

That is the TRUTH right there. I have a modded K20 teg and my TL was supposed to be the daily and not modded.

As other members know that didn't stick at all
