Uh, CAI replace the stock filter and you put a cone filter on in place of the OEM one.

I mean, i'm sure there's a way you could mod it so that you could use your stock filter. But in reality you are wasting money if you buy an AEM CAI, just buy an ebay one and slap a K&N filter on it, you wil spend about half as much, maybe even less!

I know Comptech and a few other companies make intakes that look just like the stock setup for a sleeper look, but I don't think they make them for our car.

ok, so I decided to do the OEM upgrade for my front brakes using the legend calipers and prelude Vtec rotors.

now my problem is, I ordered the Dual-piston calipers for a 1994 Acura legend GS 3.2L sedan. (I was told by many different sources that these were the calipers to buy.) Anyway, when I picked them up from the autoparts store I noticed the caliper mounting brackets say "28T" instead of "23T" and I was wondering if this is the right bracker/caliper or not?? and will it work or not??

any help from the all knowing "Guru's" of Acurazine would be greatly appreciated. I need new brakes urgently and am hoping to do them this weekend.

I kept all my change there and would close the lid. I guess that's a more common place to put your change than I thought. So instead of taking the money out...they took my whole cupholder...

Stole my backpack that had only faulty ram that was to be RMA'd and a poker set. So it wasn't to bad.

My conclusion was it was a crackhead who broke into my car.

someone stole the A off of my grill while i was at work today, so now my thought is, what can i do to my grill to make it not look horrendous without the A? cut the fins, mold on some plastic and mesh it up?

http://yhst-43541471360993.stores.ya...ex194c244.html

HELP
will this catback exhaust system entirely fit my 1998 3.0 CL??

Please don't refer me to the NOOB guide i've read it although it says it will fit for 94-97 2door, this item does not specify between 2dr/4dr models.
Also my other concern was that it is for a 4cylinder engine.
Will all of it fit with my 6cylinder engine 3.0 CL???

I have gotten different answers and I just want to be sure before I buy it that it will completely fit my car.

Thank you!

Yes, he has been perma-banned from this site. He pissed off too many mega mods and admins, by being same old anhedonia, and never changed his ways of hijacking threads and posting garbage in them. 3 bans was his limit and the powers that be dealt with him from there. He was given more than enough warnings and chances by myself and others, but he just wouldn't change his ways. Most everyone that asked about him was far from surprised given his history.

yeah i want to take a vid, problem is i dont have a camera. i took it out to a mercedes benz club autox a couple weeks ago, and it was a lot of fun. the avg on the course was 42 and my best was 47.7 (it was my first time autox-ing too). i got a ride in someone's 65 shelby cobra 427...holy hell, my heart didnt beat the entire time. it was hella fast and balls ass loud. im gonna try to get a cheap camera mount and just borrow a camera next time i go out.

as far as your question goes, i think the ebrake is a completely separate rotor, so i dont think it'd warp the rear rotors. im just guessing though i could be wrong.
