A few shots of the new deck:





The button color has a huge palette, this yellow matches the Zs gauges kinda.

So no Greddy Twin Turbo kit I take it?

Either way props on the mods from a former owner. It's one of the few cars I actually miss driving even though mine was totally stock.

Oh yeah the RDX antenna is the best match for the Z's antenna base. I think I paid like $10 bucks for one at the Acura dealer and the fit looked totally stock.

I'm happy with the S2K antenna although Civic's RAZR looks great!

lol

Thanks.

Broke down & installed it, without new bezel. The old one was sticking when the face opened and obviously I don't want to break the new unit.







Take note of the name of the song on the XM radio in the last picture.

End of story.
why is it in every thread you are coming accross as some smart assed person. Is it too hard for you to say something like

"Sorry [insert name here] I do not want to talk about it"

skip getting the shocks and work on getting some manners instead.......

Pot meet kettle.

Get a life, clearly you have nothing to do but troll threads looking for silliness to say.

Read back, prior to that I said I choose not to share that data, his response was come clean like I hit and ran his car.

BTW, those are technically not shocks as they incorporate the springs, that makes them COILOVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have a contribution?

No?

GTFO.

Last two pieces of the suspension puzzle here:

Sways and endlinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





The manufacturer asked when I asked if the coilovers were too firm what junk poorly valved shocks are people using with firm spring rates that make it too stiff?
I have no clue, he said neither does the person putting them together. He said his will feel better than oem in all ways.

I sure hope so!

You said if I remove the pinstripe you were putting it in.

Pinstripe came off today!

Since I knew you would not do it I have an appointment to get it done Friday morning.

Broke down & installed it, without new bezel. The old one was sticking when the face opened and obviously I don't want to break the new unit.

Well if you actually installed it correctly then you wouldn't have that problem. Per your previous pictures you crammed that cell phone holder in there too. It isn't designed to be mounted through that section. LOL

Then I recommend you getting the XM kit for your Kenwood and putting the bezel back on.

The bezel is on, as I said I installed the HU before the bezel came. There is no further "XM kit" I had a choice, put holes in my dash or make it work. As it is my car I did it my way.

I do not need nor do I want any advice from you. Please troll elsewhere.

They make a XM kit for THAT stereo available from Kenwood for like $100 bucks. I had one. It would clean up your dash some and get rid of the aftermarket XM.

Trolling? This is a free forum to post suggestions or comments. IF you don't like it, don't post.

If I wanted an internal XM radio I'd use the one in the NAV. I don't.
You are a troll and now you have your friends posting your junk on other boards. Get a life.

If you don't like my responses to your trolling don't troll.

Keep calling people names and your access here will be short lived. No one is a troll. Again I offered you suggestions you can take it or leave it. Don't post stuff on a site you don't want people to give you comments about. You will receive good and bad or recommendations.

You are not posting constructively. I do not need or want your help and you are not in a position to decide who stays or goes.

Please do not post in my thread.

I like being able to record songs/shows & being able to take the MP3i with me.

What part of MY CAR IS THE WAY I WANT IT don't you understand?


Finally you have not seen the finished product and apparently you can't read even when you quote because it says THE BEZEL DID NOT COME BUT I INSTALLED ANYWAY.

Define troll please.

I'll do it for ya:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_%28Internet%29

"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation "DNFTT" redirect here. For the Wikimedia essay, see "What is a troll?".

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2] In addition to the offending poster, the noun troll can also refer to the provocative message itself, as in "that was an excellent troll you posted". While the term troll and its associated action trolling are primarily associated with Internet discourse, media attention in recent years has made such labels highly subjective, with trolling being used to describe intentionally provocative actions outside of an online context. For example, recent media accounts have used the term troll to describe "a person who defaces internet tribute sites with the aim of causing grief to families

1) You said there was no kit available. I corrected you on that. Maybe you need to read what you type?

Great. If these aren't the finish product, let's see some pictures. Then we can give you a for fixing it!

Since we are completely on topic here, maybe you need to read it to stay on topic instead of calling people trolls that you don't agree with their recommendations.

Kit does not refer to hardware. You meant internal radio/tethered module. Say what you mean.

How about you buy a clue?

The progress updates are over. As you said don't post if I don't want to hear your bs.

I don't so I won't.

Does your boss know he pays you to post on the internet?
