^ Definitely update this thread as you build it out. Lots of Accord fans, and the folks here would love to see a good CL-S tranny swap.

Welcome to the site. Just a tip though... don't post whore to get those 5 posts. They'll be deleted and you could face a ban. Just participate as normal and you'll get them very quickly.

Swapping out a J30A1/4AT in favor of a J32A2/6MT is awesome. Post-swap, it'll pretty much be an entirely different car on the performance front. Do keep us posted!

Well now I'm sad I didn't post this earlier. People on the forums here in Indiana said people on here were mean to non-Acura people. (Its basically one, Honda is Acura lol) But you guys are awesome, thanks. I'll definitely post up more pics. And it was just lowered

Also, do you guys sell stickers like (acurazine.com) or anything. I'd love to rep you guys out here in Indiana, because it looks like you don't have many users from here

^Oh, he's a name known over on the 6th Gen Accord forums and website. I love that car, and he is one of the few in the world on the forums to have light up door sills. Really want those.

But yea, we 6th Gen owners know this car lol

Welcome to AZine! I love that particular color on the 6th gen. I wish more cars came available with a dark metallic forest green. And the new drop looks good. Let's see a shot of the whole car to truly appreciate it!

Checkout the Accord thread I started way back in the day when I had my 7th gen 6mt. Lots of good stuff in there: https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/official-honda-accord-thread-703237/

Sorry I have been away for a while. Been busy with school. I bought some TL wheels, so I can finally rid myself of the stock EX ones. Smaller tires will come soon.

I'm starting to see those wheels on a number of Accords, 3.2CLs and 3.2TLs. Although I'm biased in favor of 07-08 TLS wheels, those 3G wheels look good on the 6G coupe.

Yea, they are on quite a few of the 6GA coupe's and sedans. But surprisingly, people don't think they are worth much. Picked these up for a very good price

Definitely a solid choice with the 3G TL wheels, I might look into getting some for my CL.

They are pretty nice, and they are a great choice for a CL. CL Type S?
