Well, if the install doesnt go according to plan, let me know.

This weekend wont work out.

 

No prob. It may not happen this weekend. Just depends how I can schedule everything. I am overly busy, with my roommates relocating to Canada and me have to find another place to live ASAP.

 

hey guys, just installed the A-spec 6MT suspension on my 5AT. It rocks! Body roll is greatly reduced and I no longer feel like I'm going to lose control on fast corners and clover leafs. Like others have said the ride is close to stock you just feel the road more.

The diff on the 6MT suspension is that the front springs have a slightly lower compression ratio. That means more drop up front.

Here are the drops:
Rear Driver: from 26.81 to 26.5 for a .31" drop
Rear Passenger: 26.75 to 26.55 for a .2" drop
Front Driver: 26.87 to 26.12 for a .75" drop
Front Passenger: 26.93 to 26.31 for a .62" drop

I hope the rear drops more after a week or so. Other than that it was well worth it. I can't wait to get some more road time in and test out some more clover leafs.

 

SWEET!!!!!!! Congrad's now tape up those cuts, and scrapes! Looking forward so meeting, well all you people!! Again Congrad's!!!

 

Any of you guys get an 07 switchblade key yet? If so, who did you have program the key fob part and the transponder in the key?

 

^-- I've thought about it but since I have the compustar remote on my key chain, I figured the '07 key fob might make it to bulky. Although it would get rid of that large key jabbing me in the leg occasionally.

 

I bought a key on Ebay, machined and ready to go. I found a place in StP that may be able to program the Fob and Transponder for $40. I will let you guy know how it goes.

 

NICE! keep us posted ajdig

PS. statewide smoking ban, lovely news in my book http://www.twincities.com/allheadlines/ci_5909943

 

^-- Yay for the Smoking ban!

 

Hey guys-
Another TL owner here from MN also. Bought a '05 in Des Moines of all places. I couldn't find a silver one I liked and had a decent price up here. I'm currently going through the process of finding snow tires. I've been told to get 16's, do you guys have any preference for the weather up here?

 

I just used the stock ones, they suck but they got me through winter. I just moved to KC on friday so I no longer have to worry about really good winter tires, just how they perform on ice.

Oh yeah, we are having a meet on Saturday. The details are in the thread below, please post comments about the meet there.

anyone here know someone that drives a 3G NBP TL (base) w/gold emblems, black wheels, OEM lip kit, and some sorta silver rotor covers???

 

My TL was just rear-ended and the rear bumper (fell off), trunk (closes but does not align) and other scratches etc.

Who in Minneapolis can do the best collison repair work on a TL?

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks!

 

Sorry to read abot that!



I know a guy that I would trust with my car. But he works/lives just west of Elk River. Outstanding work though...

 

sad to hear

 

Saw a black 04-06 NBP TL this evening on 494E in Bloomington. No body kit or spoiler but TL-S tails or blacked out and 07+ side mirrors. Anyone from this forum?

 

not me, i only travel 169N / 169S

Work in the Opus Area(specifically in front of the CLOUD 9 apts) of minnetonka. I see a few TL's everyday, acutally about 12!

 

I live in St. Paul as well. I drive a grey 05 TL. Question to you MN guys and gals. I have 255/40/17 all season tires on my car and when it starts to snow my car gets stuck everywhere. What tires do you run during the winter?

 

What tires are your running now?

I'm currently running the Bridgestone RE960 245/45/17.

Only snow experience were with the OEM Mich MxM4's and they were extremely scary in snow. No traction and zero wet traction. I took those off even though they had over half tread life.

 

I just found out about this thread... I am in Plymouth, MN drive a AM-05TL. We had a meet last week and I PMed lots of people from Minnesota but only 10 showed up If you guys are up for a TL meet some of us were planning on gathering again the coming weekend. Here is the thread for that:

I have seen you up and down Rockford Rd few times. I used to work in Plymouth and took that road. Back then I had a 2nd Gen TL.

 

I'm in shoreview and own a 1st gen 3.2 and a 2nd gen 3.2!

You guys realize you are replying to messages from 2007 right? You're better off in the MN Acura thread at least it has had posts more resent than seven years ago.
