I just bought my TL about 2 months ago, I sold my RB25det powered 240sx and traded my 01 MDX in for one. I have always wanted one and I figured why not do it. (That and my girl friend was out of town and we joked that i would make an expensive "dumb" buy while she was gone)
I bought it and it looked like this:


Of course, me being me I hate stock cars so after i made up with the girlfriend for my "dumb" buy i got the A-Spec kit (Ordered through her work cuz she works for an Acura dealer!), Type S Tail Lights/Side Markers, Tien S springs, and the OEM rear spoiler. I then of course needed wheels, found some for 300.00 brand new in the box on craigs list! 19x8.5 and 19x9.5.
The the Tsudo cat back, 3rd cat delete, ATLP V2 J-Pipe, K&N Intake, and Underdrive pully were ordered.
This is how she sits today... Not much different from most others.



I Also just got done with the Nav conversion... Its A LOT easlier then everyone thinks!

Here are some pics of my past cars:
1991 Nissan 240SX Super HICAS
Kinda crap looking on the outside, which I loved for all the Corvettes I came accross.


1994 Honda Civic
I hated how everyone went to dual cams, I wanted to be different. 440hp to the wheels is not bad! I painted it when i was in high school



Here is my bike... This I still have. Gotta have something fun and fast!

Thanks man, it was a lot of hard work building these cars but it was worth the money. I build everything myself nobody else has ever touched my cars and there is nothing more rewarding then that! Now... Maybe its time for some boost on the TL!

I am not sure if that's you or not but in some other threads you say you have/had a NSX? Maybe I am confusing you with someone else but he also has a "comptech" in his name.

edit.

that is you in the Tsudo exhaust thread. you talk about having comptech on your NSX? pics?

Yeah that was me, my brother has the NSX... I figured it would be easier then explaining that my twin brother has it haha. Its stock besides an intake and Comptech exhaust. But ill see if I can get him to email me some picks, he lives in ND.
And thanks for the compliment on the bike. Its a 07 Kawisaki zx6r. I bought it stock as well and I LOVE blacked out bikes!

I would really like to boost it with a comptech s/c (hence the s/n) but I dont know if i can justify 4500 or even 3500 used for a kit. I was thinking about building my own turbo setup like I did for the civic and 240sx but I dont want to have to take the drive abily out of the TL.

Especially when your girlfriend works at an Acura dealer haha.

I love your bike!

Good friend of mine has a black 07 ZX-6R, too.

He put a Two Bros slip-on exhaust. Sounds awesome.

Thanks, I had a Two Brothers and Yosh and didnt really like how they sounded so I made my own with removable silencers, so some days i could be loud and other quiet. I made it a 2.5" from the header back then split to 2 3" tips at the back slash cut, then I powder coated it black to match. Here is the best pic i have of it on photobucket.

It sounds awesome. with no silencers it sound like a straight Moto GP bike. I tried taking a vid of it and the exhaust on my TL and they both sounded nothing like they do in person so i just said screw it.
