I'll be pretty busy this weekend, I can bring the spacers and a couple lug nuts to the meet on Sunday. Or text me and I'll bring them to your place.

 

Now I dont even know if I can make it to either meet. My car will most likely not be ready in time, and the wifey has something to do.

 

Shit, I have to get back to you. One of the Mazda guys he used to have a speed6 owns a tire and alignment shop on El Camino or W. El Camino or something like that.

 

How is he at installing low profile tires? Cheap and good hopefully. I want to find a place that can do it without hurting the rims too much.

Boo. Let me know if/when you want me to stop by with the spacers and lugs anyways.

 

Ima see how Americas tire co mounts mine, hope they know what they are doing.
Yeah Gary I could still use them, hopefully my tires are in by monday.

 

ATC is pretty good, I dunno Gary how he is with Low Pro. I'll ask some of the guys, I have to dig up that thread still I can't even remember which thread it was.

 

Sway, Teo, you guys know anyone that can lower cars?

 

Like just springs?

 

Yea on the Mazda.

 

I mean ive taken my coils off and put back on like 10 times and did the springs with a buddy, im sure its something we could tackle.

 

just need a spring compressor if its springs only. shouldnt be too hard. id be willing to help out if u need, just hit me up.

 

that's what I'm thinking too but Kevin says they are harder cause it's Mazda but it's still springs.
I'm down to assist too.

 

My friend OTSB708 (Matt) whatever the hell is SN is did some on my buddies 6 and he was saying the rear is a PITA and he lowers cars all the time.

Anyone have a SC or should I just go rent one?

 

Prob rent one. Set a date and I'm sure we can go help and get it done.

 

Just go rent one, I'll bring my impact wrench.

Everyone needs to go check this out, maybe we can make a meet of it:

I haven't picked a time yet so if someone wants to go with me, any of those times will work actually.

 

Hey Gary I bought some 5mm spacers let me know when we can do a test fit with those lugs you have.

 

Just text me. I start school next week and I can't do this Saturday. Other then that my schedule is pretty erratic so it's best to let me know when your free and then I'll let you know if it works.

You sign up for the ride and drive?

 

Hmm. Well I just got these 5mm spacers ima see how they mount with the lug nuts I have. Ive been reading that I should not need longer studs for just 5 mm.

 

Make sure you have about 7 full turns. I had about 5, drove on them and they didn't feel right to me. The wheel was pretty shaky and I had to retorque the wheels after driving a couple miles.
Mike is rolling on 5 turns and he says everything is fine and they are still torqued. Maybe it has something to do with the offset of the wheels too?

 

So it's 7 turns once it starts getting snug?

 

I'll just borrow my buddies SC.

 

Gary, there's no way I'm getting more than 5.5 turns out of this. Hmm.

I'm usually available Sunday's to help Kev.

 

Glad i found this website and checking on daily basis! Love to read a lot of opinions and information...

On Aug 8th bought 2011 Acura TL SH-AWD 6MT beauty from Niello Acura on Madison...

Car has everything what I wanted except oem body kit. Wondering if someone have it for sale?

Thanks in advance

 

Yea, that's about what I got. You start count when you start turning the lug onto the threads and you can't pull the lug off. Then start turning and counting. What is the offset of the wheels? Mine were about +35 or +30.

Welcome! First 4G TL on on the forums in the Sacramento area?
We're having a get together next month with other fellow members, just look at my signure below my post for further information. Hope you can come out and join us!
As for your question about the OEM kit, you could try looking at the Black Market under the Off Topic section at the top right of the page but since the car is so new, the kit maybe rare.

 

Whats up guys, anyone here know any good car mechanics or people that can do electrical work, I have some issues on my G37 and I stay in Sac and need it looked at, I would like friendly advice from someone also if they can come see it in person, THANK YOU!

 

Try the black market, or you can try the dealer. Or you could browse the 4G section to see if there are any group buys going on for it.

 

Anyone wanna get together tomorrow to detail our cars?

 

Can't, going fishing tomorrow or else I'd kick it with you.

Shit, should have texted me I would have been down, I'm trying to avoid packing the house. Well I started but now Im taking a "break"

 

Damn sway, forgot to show you my ET lugs. We could have test fitted them on your wheels.

 

Yeah I forgot too. I drove to the Firestone in eg to get my alignment and they were fine, still tourqued down.

 

But I bet you'll feel better if you got an extra 3 turns out of the lugs though. I'll bring them again if we meet up in 2 weeks.

 

Where do you guys usually meet up to detail your cars? 0.0 or is it usually at somebody's casa?

 

Yeah, well we never have gotten together but I thought that because we were meeting up the next day we should get them clean.

I would love to get together with the guys though and do a full detail, I need a wax bad.

 

i need air =[

 

me too. i need to hit up ur boy to paint my new front lip and wing and fix my fender dent. he quoted me 500

 

Do any 2gn TL guys need these? Just saw them on cl thought I might help someone out
