It was great meeting you all today. White Heat says she is sorry she couldn't make it, but will be at the next meet! Sorry I couldn't stay longer; I just got home from work... I can't wait to wake-up in a couple hours Here is a photo I took before I left; BIG RED didn't want to feel left out



Jorge, I uploaded this photo to Facebook before I left BWW... Razzi liked and commented on it instantly

Thanks for the headsup Jorge, I was just chillin at home last night, could have made the trek on over. This is likely to have been the last meet I could make since I'm moving soon.

The wagon is all set for the summer, just need to do some more work on the paint to get it blingin, but that's probably going to have to wait until I get to Texas in a few weeks.

Just Four of us. I could write their names but then I be giving away their ID. I will PM you.

Ups Sorry late night typing sucks when you tired.

Sorry guys, I missed it. How did it go?

It was awesome. Me and Janik had a great time until all of these TL's showed up. Then some guy in a Jeep came, so we left. lol

Was definately a good time though. Stayed at Como for about 2 hours, then went to BW3's. Not sure where everyone went after that though. Had about 20 show up to Como, and about 10 showed to BW3's

Sounds like the meet was a good time, I wish I could've gone..

But on a good note, the shop was able to weld my headers back together, and the whole car sounds SOOOOOO much better now, I didn't realize how much leaks the exhaust really had, but it's running smoothly now, so that's the good news from my camp..

Is anyone planning on going to the national meet in kansas this year?

Takata 18

Yeah what was up with those Dam TL'S. Hey Glow what is up with your WTF it's slow

Jorge, you'll have to get vids up of the newly installed exhaust!

I should be getting my taillights this week, another project added to my list. I have to get a switch wired up for my LED DRL light bar also get the light bar cut and installed. I'll start cutting open the taillights this weekend hopefully, just hope I don't cut it wrong and waste $100

What!? Why are you leaving??
Who the hell brings a Jeep to an Acura meet? It must be a Jeep thing that others wouldn't understand

Very nice pics man!

Hey guys, question for you. I have a set of 18" TSW Thruxtons that I want to get rid of, wanted to see what you guys thought a fair price would be to list them on craigslist for. They have Michelin Pilot Sport tires on them...only 3 have 30-35% of useful life left...the 4th tire is shredded because the previous owner didn't believe in rotating tires or alignments? I'll post pics, let me know what you think. Thanks.

thefatcat

The chips, knicks, pocks or whatever you want to call them shown on the closeup of the one rim.....is pretty much the case for all 4 rims.

MNRSX,

Here is the info for the AEM v2 CAI for our Type-S. Cheapest place to find them new is XLR8 Performance. Josh (the owner) is great and is very helpful.

I'd honestly just save your money instead of getting the intake. It's more or less a sound mod for the car. Look through this thread, do the resonator delete and see how you like that before dropping $300 for the intake.

nate_0022,

MNRSX is really more concerned about sound than true HP gains, which the AEM does nicely.

Evil_Pineapple

WAIT A MINUTE!!!!! The CAI doesnt help with HP? Well im glad I got my turbo sticker then.... thats like 50hp out of the box

I have been traveling 80% or more since I started my new job and that leaves my wife home alone with Bodhi all the time. We're moving to Austin, Tx to live with her twin sister and Bodhi's cousin that is 10 hours younger than he. This way my wife has some help when she needs it and I don't have to stress about her being on her own.

So I only have a week and a half left in Mn before I move. Anyone have a friend that wants a loft in downtown Minneapolis?

asujosh1

On a happy note, that means that I need to pick up a second vehicle so that I can get around in Texas. I have been looking at 911, 350Z, Corvette, and other fun cars that have very little practical value.

Good lookin' cars, guys! Hopefully one of these days the rest of my parts will show up so I can get mine pieced back together and make it out to a meet sometime this year.

Sounds like some of my stuff got shipped out today with some more following next week. I should at least be able to piece it back together enough to get it back on 4 wheels with those items. Then I'll have to play the waiting game again until the ECU is finally ready.

T Bone

Nice cars guys! You needed my MRP there to add some color! Next time!

blktl04

Awesome meet! Nice pics too.

mnrsxs

Thanks for the link HatTrick. I saw one listed on the BM today for like $140 and I was the first to post. Hope I can scoop that

Otherwise I have a favor to ask you or anyone else who has taken their stock intake off but still has it lying around. If I don't get an intake I may just take my resonator off and put a cone filter on the end of the tube. I would also remove the filter in my intake box.

Can someone measure the diameter of the opening of the stock intake just before the resonator (or wherever is most convenient if I were to remove it). I don't want to take my bumper off to measure, then drive out to pick up a KN filter that fits.

Ill make a DIY of my project for anyone else considering the same thing.

Great shots I have to thank ClockworkSpider and his girl for the great photos. We have to start thinking of next month for the next meet. Does the first or second Sat of next month work for everyone.

I remember you mentioning moving down there before; that seems like a good plan for your family. I think I speak on behalf of the AcuraZine family when I say I am going to miss ya and have a safe trip!
Those cars would be great family vehicles!

GLowrdr

I still can't believe how sexy that a-spec type-s front end looks. I really do miss the styling of the TL compared to the G. But it seems I get to look at the front end of your cars quite a bit, so that's nice. lol

rico651

i may have a friend or 2 interested in a loft dt, or me

thefatcat

Do any of you have anyone you'd recommend for window tinting?

Evil_Pineapple

Full blown in apple valley did mine.... no issues

ts_vaj

Man I'm late! It's been a long time since I checked in here! Looked like a pretty good gathering!

rico651

i heard they dont do tinting anymore.

i'm still looking for a good place that will tint under MN law with my medical exemption.

TintMasters in burnsville said that they'd install moleskin for me, and it would be under warranty if it was scratched. maybe i should have them put that in writing?

i've also talked to TintPros, Cooler in the Shade, and Gjerdes. any place else i should give a try?

Might want to re think that one. Left a 1/4 strip in your rear quarter window un tinted and didn't tint under your third brake cover. Those seem like issues to me lol

nate_0022

I went to suncontrol of MN. They installed moleskins for me and have a lifetime warranty. I went 50% which looks perfect to me.

Takata 18

Sun control did my last car and they will be doing my new car.

Takata 18

What were you sleeping. This has been talked since two moths ago about the meet.

WannabeG

I had Tien at tint pros mobile do my car. Lifetime warranty as well and a fantastic price ($170).

Evil_Pineapple

The only issues I would bother with is if the tint fell off... Im not a psycho about how perfect everything is like you are... Probably because I have other things to occupy my time with like ACTUAL responsibilities....
