Somehow, the TL is still going. Even after all of the countless vtecs and potholes. Currently changing out the 4 bad o2 sensors. May or may not order an aftermarket part for the car this year. I want some LED headlamp bulbs if that is even possible...which I'm sure it is haha.
















The is300 has an attitude. Sometimes she is good, sometimes she is bad.

 

LED headlamps although currently available for some applications, wouldn't be a good idea in our 3G TL.


Our HID Bi-xenon projector is still an industry-leader and benchmark. Just throw a pair of CBI's in there (https://www.theretrofitsource.com/co...cbi-49224.html) and you'll love it all over again. ZKW-r lens in there for a sharp cutoff if you haven't yet and damn

I think you have a thing for white cars lol. Car looks awesome, the aero up front is my favorite.

 

Nah man, it's the snow

 

Do you race that beast?

 

to each and every stoplight!

 

Your car looks very familiar... has it graced the insides of HondaTuning in the past? Has it been featured anywhere else? I feel like I've seen it published somewhere, but I can't figure out where

 

still love this car

 

I can tell by looking this is not a track car and the aero is not functional. It is a show car/street driver.

One my favorite builds, between your exhaust set up, and @scotterson - paved the way in my mind to run a single outlet as well! Stay Strong sir!

 

Good to see you back on, Eric! Although I gulped hard when I saw snow on your baby, I know how well you take care of her.

Thanks for the comments everyone. It's good to see this forum still alive and well. The UA6/7 is getting old but the love for them is still there.


Took some photos just now in the garage while the hood is popped. Need to polish some things up and the headlights as well.




Original sensor completely murked.




Did a little polishing after this photo so it looks slightly better.




New k&n filter I installed last week.


The newest tool in the garage at the moment.


Titanium tow hook still looking sexyAF.


Need to spend some time with the headlights. New bulbs and polish.

 

Dookie.

 

stfub.

 

Bring the TL to C&C in the morning. You can park it next to my V8

 

Eric!! Glad to see the beautiful beast still around. There's only a rare few of us left, including Tyler, because I love him!

I know that feeling.. with the TL needing some TLC. As you saw in my thread, I'm putting more work into the TL to correct a lot of the "weathered" items. Once it's warmer out, ill get around to everything. How does it feel to hear the whine from the blower?! I forget that feeling, since I drive the car once in a blue moon.

Tiffany is trying to convince me to take out the TL and meet up with you guys

It seems very possible for this coming spring..

 

Say whatttttt?! That would require you driving for more than 5 miles though

If/when that happens, I'll kick M's car out of the garage for yours

 

wow I can't take my eyes off that hook now you bastard!

 

Man I think I might crank the TL up tomorrow morning. Just got back from installing the rear upstream sensor so now it should have two working sensors now. I wonder how long the check engine light will stay off. Before today it would only stay off for 6-15 miles. If it stays off after I crank it up at cars and coffee I might go see if it will pass inspection.

Spring is when the TL gets lots of love. Gonna be in the mid 70s this week everydamnday so I'm sure there will be lots of car guys giving tlc. And the whine is amazing,..still love the sound of it. I think it scares people when I go wide open throttle when they are next to me.

That would be awesome. You guys planning a trip down south?

This is a shot of it with some ice. That thing was expensive man but I had to have it once I saw it on bulletproofs website.


Thanks for the information! I will probably order those bulbs soon. The bulb in my passenger side headlamp is acting like it wants to quit.

haha definitely love some white cars. Thanks!

Yes anytime someone challenges me.

Yes Honda Tuning and a few other websites I think.

Thanks man!

The aero is functional.. the canards create a good amount of lift. The TL sort of hovers in the air when cruising above 100mph. Not a single bit of downforce created by any of the cf addons.

Hope you're doing well Sir!

Thank you and I'm happy to have inspired.

Steven it's good to post again in this section.

 

If it's intermittent, chances are it's the ballast/igniter and not the bulb. Great time to replace the bulb too but sometimes on, sometimes off would more likely be the ballast or "control unit" i believe Acura calls it!

 

Awesome ride. PM me if you ever decide to sell those TE37's.

 

Could you tell me where you got your front slitter and canards at? link?
