Hey gents, I assume it's ok to ask anything on this thread.

Does anyone local have a '07-'08 Type-S intake air box they'd like to sell? Mine has a busted off bolt.

I'm going to try to swing by if I can tomorrow afternoon to say hey.

Dan, you should be fine without that bolt....but if your OCD is kicking in I know Steven has the air box replaced with a SRI and Matt is thinking of a CAI....so either of them who is willing to part with that "part" can hook u up....

also, I think its the same part between the base and the Type S, you can get get a Base box cover as well

Danny, I recently saw an ad on craigslist for an OEM intake. Can't remember if it was a base or type s, but I don't think they are different.


Here is the link. And $50 is too high IMO.

Matt could not handle the cold? He showed up and took his TL out, unlike some people, apparently he is the one who planned it as well!! :P lol

Dam, 4 weeks?

4 weeks? That's a relief.

I guess not that it would make any difference other than my degree of embarrassment.

If its what I think it is, it's something that requires the use of an intercooler.

It has seen salt but as of right now my aftermarket wheels are on. So yes it has seen salt with stock wheels but no I wouldn't drive it with aftermarket wheels on with salt/snow. So you can quit your bitching too!!

Like some strip clubs, you can looky but no touchy! I'll see if I can get to those rear seats sometime soon. It's supposed to be nice out today before the rain all weekend.

VIP room baby !!! depending on the rims, you might find a nice finish on top of the finish and some lithium grease on them coils

yeah...take the rear seats out, blast everything with pb (including the top bolts)....try to take the front strut bar out (those bolts at times strip on me and hence it will be a potential problem on the day of install)....

Lets get you some new tires, and get you rolling out like a
