Yeah justin you are number -1 until you decide to upgrade to a S. And you don't come on here saying hey guys how can I make my car look like yours so I can join the club.

I disclosed that I was not in a mood. Kinda like saying "with all do respect" or "bless your heart" it means I can say whatever without disregard to feelings.

And going to discount tire to get tires mounted. TPMS came in to Honda today sooooooo. If I am feeling good enough to tackle I may swap rims over today or tomorrow. Pics will be up when its done for sure.
Since I include myself in saying this thread is full of picture whores.

I never intended to be a wanna be.
I got the type-s front end for free, because of my stupid mistake.

all I'm saying is the prestige is lost.
Sure, if it was an AMG model, then yes. you can have your cake and eat it too.

my base six speed TL dynos the same as an auto tl-s.

my interior looks exactly like yours. aside from the two tone and red ambient lighting.

its the same car.
get your smug butt out of your face!
and i say that with love and no disrespect to you.

This continuous trolling is pretty funny. Why do you keep insisting that it's the same car? Why are you trying so hard to justify it? It may look alike but it's still not UA7.

is it not a 3rd gen TL?
again, is it an AMG or an M series?
with more power?

nope.
only the six speed TL-S' can claim this high and mighty pompous title.

I'm only trolling because I want to be included.
the more resistance, the more troll.

"AMG is to Mercedes as Type-S is to Acura"
"M-Series is to BMW as Type-S is to Acura"

We're comparing apples to oranges here, but I'm pretty sure those are more-or-less pretty accurate analogies. AMG, M-Series and Type-S are all fancy trim levels with a common base model.

BUT THEY HAVE LOTS MORE POWER than their base counterparts.
stock for stock, my base tl has the same power as an auto tl-s.

We didn't create this car club to say, we're better than the rest of you.

In order to become a member, your car must have UA7 in the VIN and you must present a picture, it's that simple.

There are many differences in our 3g TL's if you put them side by side as they come from the factory. However, we are in no way trying to say that we are high and mighty and we are not being smug.

If there was a UA6 or UA8 or whatever squads, we (the UA7 guys) wouldn't be able to join.

It's not like we're saying, we don't like your car so you're not getting in, it simply isn't a UA7.

Unless you're slammed w/o camber kits...I can almost hear my tires cussing at me. If it wasn't sub-arcticly cold outside, I'd be out wrenching on my car. Arggg

Yeah, I'm about ready to break down and pay a shop to put on my camber kits for me. Although the thought of someone other than me installing parts on my car makes me cringe...especially in this redneck town.

Skip the springs and get coilovers. You'll save money bc eventually you'll want to sell your springs and upgrade to coils anyway.
