Exclamation Update 2.0

Hey, I am new to this Thread so I hope no one will object me showing up.
I'm riding all stock right now, but that is only because I wanted to see what I can do before I do anything.
So this, will actually give me a nice chance to see what you all did, or didn't do.
To sum up, I am down for Sunday 18.


Keep the posts coming, and someone post the final results on the 16 and 17 so we all know what's up.

Exclamation Feb 18 meet and drive----latest

Hello fellow Sac area ziners

Lets do the meet at the Starbucks parking lot, as they used to.
Address listed above. 10:30-11am depends on fog.
We will be there long enough for all interested to arrive.

Its near the auto mall and the Acura dealer there said they would love it if we came by and showed them what can be done to these cars!

All Acuras welcome. No mods required, many of us look stock or are stock.
Just bring a good attitude and camera-optional.
Casual drive on back country roads optional
Stop in Jackson area optional
Having a good time- mandatory

Sunday Sunday Sunday
Be there, or be there next time! Its cool

Unhappy Sorry, change of plans

I thought I could go, but something came up.
I really wanted to see every-ones rides thought, I will have my car painted soon and I need ideas for body kits to put on.
I might put of painting it until I can meet with you guys, but don't keep me waiting too long.
Sorry for the inconveneince, but I'm off the list.

Can we make this at like 12 meet time? Lot's of people have church and should be able to meet around that time.

Also i know everyone might laugh, but someone said they need a body kit. Well if interested i have a full Raven kit for sale. let me know if anyone wants it. or knows someone who wants it.

I was going to surprise everyone and have my led tails completed at the meet, but i accidently melted one of the tail lights when i was trying to split it open so i am not putting the leds into the tails yet until i replace that side. I have it all completed just need to replace one tail and then it will be finished. I am putting each of the boards of leds onto a 24hour check. I am leaving them lit up for 24 hrs to make sure that nothing will burn up or blow out. hehe if it stays good, then i can help other people who want this done. My leds are special, they come on with the running lights and then get brighter with the brake lights. Just like the new accords. I will let everyone know how they do on the test. Also if i can get ahold of the outer driver side tail then i can still complete this by sunday to show everyone. If anyone local has an extra one to sell me. let me know.

Arrow Change of Meet Time

Is everyone who is still planning on making it ok with a 12 noon start time?

You can still show up earlier and hang with whoever is there, and the Acura dealer said there may be place to *ahem* demonstrate friction vs horsepower,
maybe throw a little water patch down for burnouts.
Private property with owners permission, nice!
The salesman would be all over a modded car, they do wheels and kits there and would like to see the differnt options people have done.

With some fog expected and many needing to wash the dew from the car in the morning---

Noon? Anybody Everybody?
Since the drive and stops are optional you can make the day an hour or 3 hours

If we get nothing else from this group-
it is already showing we can help each other save money on mods.

One member wants a body kit.
Another steps up and says- here, let me hook you up!
The next needs tint- a local place is recommended

Thats what Acurazine is all about- thanks everyone!!!

I tried to PM you but your box is full.
I would be interested in the body kit, can I come down and see it in person, how much do you want for it?
Also, the LED mod for the taillights, is that for 3rd gen only, or can you make it for my 2000 TL?

Sorry, just got the message of my inbox full. it's empty now. You can deffinatly come see the kit anytime you like. You do know it's for a 2006 TSX right? as far as the tails, i have the measurements for TSX tails so when i have the parts i can offer people to finish their tails in one day and send them back the next day. but i can do any tails. just need to measure the light to see how big i need to make the boards for each section.

Ok so this meet is going to be at 12? i will be leaving vacaville at 11:30 to head up to Sac. Here is my number so anyone call me that needs help or is running late or if there is a change to something. 707-301-6574

Anyhow, i'll be coming with the following. Sadly I couldn't get my body kit on in time for this meet maybe next time.

I did however finish one of my projects with the DVD player in the lower compartment so atleast thats what ill bring to the meet.

Here are the pictures.

I came back from my test drive and everyone was gone. What happened? You know the base model 350Z is only $25K. i was almost tempted to get one. but it's very small inside. Maybe i will just keep my tsx and keep modding it. If anyone can get a discount on parts let me know. I need the driver side outer tail light.

Yeh our bad (me and acuracl1983) for not making it to today's meet. No real excuse other than it was our Chinese New Years weekend and we were up till 4 in the morning drinking heiniken and playing holdem.

Next time we will be able to make it.

From my opinion, this will surely be sometime after spring break. So get your mods done and ready for that next meet.

Cool

Wicked

We thought maybe you had disappeared with that Zcar and didn't want to be around when the salesman came over- "hey that guy said he was with your group!"

Actually, the consensus was go home and get modding and polishing to make our cars as nice as yours.

Check the auto recycle center, I think its Roseville or Rancho or up there, should be in the phone book, they have every make of car in its own lot, no digging past nissans to get to Acura parts.

## Will the member who has the tint guy hookup please PM info to desper

*** Send me emails by PM for copies of pics from meet.

Thanks to those who made it, and when anyone wants to set a date after spring break- post it and will make it happen.
