can you give me more details about what you did exactly...sorry kinda new with the whole reflash thing. did you just take your ecu to this place and then they sent it off and got the reflash done for you or do they do the reflash there? what do i need to be prepared to do for the reflash, like do i need all my keys/fobs because they would be reset, will my car be out of commission for a day or two, etc...

cmon OUT!!!

AZ Member NIKE5H and I decided we should all go out and meet up for dinner and mini meet this friday.
here are the details.
Where: Bone Daddy's [75 & Spring Valley| near microcenter]
When: Friday, March 23 2007 @ 7:00 P.M.
Why?: because we all love our acuras and want to meet fellow acura enthusiasts.

sooo everyone come out! sorry for the short notice. We're hoping that after this meet everyone will somehow be able to learn from each other in terms of mods, other experiences, and to get to know other fellow acura owners in the area.

so come on out! lmk on aim [VVV21] if u plan to attend!

You could always run it through a gas station auto car wash, doesnt take but a minute or two

I'm lucky there's a touch-free laser wash near my house in Coppell, but it's only good for very light dirt that you don't need to put some elbow grease to get out. However, nothing beats some old fashion quality time hand washing your car - if you got the time (which I never do). I wanna get an orbital but I have no experience with them.

I'll check the family calendar and let you know, but I will try.

I got my A-Spec rims recondition this week so they look brand new. Also put on some BFG's g-spots....I mean g-force sport...245/40/18 this time (235/40/18 were OEM size). Much better tire fit. Good traction and solid sidewall, no bulge with the wider tire. You can see if I come Friday.

Now...I have to prepare for the speeding ticket court date, next tuesday.

Annie,

Welcome to the homeowners club.

vthree and n1ke5h,

Sorry I will be unable to attend, however they are building a BoneDaddy's in Grapevine so the next one is over here. You may want to PM Fade and ask him to post this event on the ACTX site also.

All,

Almost done with the outdoor kitchen so we can have a nice meat, er meet at my place with the new grill. I planned this with ACTX in mind as it will have a fridge (for beer) and outlets (for blenders and other drink mixing devices) and a pretty good sized grill for Ethan to perform his steak cooking magic on.

Mike and Jordan,

Go to bed, it is a school night.

Rain rain, go away, come again some other day...

Man I just got done waxing the hell out of my car yesterday night with some Zymol and my new orbital thingy. My arms are sore as hell now and it was all for nothing if it rains.

Oh well, I'm still down for the meet!

P.S. weather.com says only cloudy - nothing about rain yet

Thanks.

Now you need to have a fund raiser posted here . . . from all the gang that'll be looking to hang!

If they're not too cheap, you can raise enough to get some air mattresses.

Anyway, congrats and hope it's a good investment for you.

Silver,

Just wanted to let you know I got the General Exclaim UHP (225/45ZR-17 91W BSW) on 3/20 . . . and I'm having them switched out. These tires won't hold up to my style of driving. I'm either gonna go back to the Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S or try the Bridgestone Potenza RE960 AS Pole Positions.

The P-Zero M+S have been the 2nd best tire I've had on the car, but the tires reviews on Tire Rack place the RE960s as the best UHP all season tire, but the P-Zeros came in near the top.

Anyway, anyone interested in a set of General Exclaim UHP (225/45ZR-17) 91W go to the Discount Tire store on Ohio, just south of 121 in Plano. I think the guy said you could have them for $400.00 out the door. That's mounted, balanced, tax and all.

Wow, that is odd as oil Tranny and CAI shouldn't do that unlless it is the oil light causing something.

Double check that I replaced the CAI sensor fully and the vacuum line is secure.

Only thing I can think of.

BTW now I know how you lowered guys feel with the lack of body roll and a lot more security through corners.
Thanks for the help with the RSB. I think I am going to have the Crank pulley put on when I get my timing belt and water pump done since they will be right there anyway.
At 95K on the odo it is getting time.
