i think we were there from like 2-5am or something at first half of us were just sleeping in that lil area upstairs, and the other half were racing then everyone ended up dancing. i dont know whats wrong with my class. we did the same thing at the bowling alley, everyone ended up dancing instead of bowling. lol

I can't hear, that is why I need 4k Never heard of that law, but mine is stealth, they can open the trunk and they won't see anything.

Nope, I'm respectful when driving in town. But, I am competing in 1 or 2 IASCA events this year....first meet is late May in Santa Rosa

Wish I could be there this month....I'm just hoping my car makes it to the dealership

How much is redline charging you?

Ask for Oscar he is the owner if he is not ask for Edward tell him Kevin with the TL sent you.
686-4363. But call between 10-5 kuz Edward is usually working and he is real cool he would probably hook you up since I know you. He is a smog tech too

O heck no, dont take it to them at all. I would say Top Speed in sacramento but they charge hella money. just to change bulbs in my friends car it was 45 bucks. Plus RLP is a recycler too they will probably jack parts from your car. I went in there once and they act like they didnt know anything about the TL

thats how they acted on the phone,- "well, I am used to working with older cars, but I am not sure if I can get those installed on the new one". Dude.... K series has been around for ages now.... and $60 an hour isnt so bad. Midnight Performance was gonna charge me $198 for 2.0 hours of labor.....

^ I changed springs myself on my old Civic, it took me 4.5 hours when I was doing it the first time with no experience. I am not sure if I want to lower TSX

My old civic I did nothing on it. Buddies did it all I bought parts and they installed, civic is alot easier though. You should drop the TSX just a slight drop to get off the 4x4

well, Civic was definitely easier than TSX, but still kinda hard to swap the springs. Now CAI.... CAI was a 10 minute job on the Civic. I think its time to call the guys at that shop u named

Dude, I just called them and they asked for 1 hour of labor for alternator and power steering and 5 hours for crank pulley. Total of $420. Thats twice as much as the most expensive shop has asked for so far.....
