No dice for me again at sonic. Too far of a drive, i put a hefty bit of wear on my tires driving to seattle and back on a unaligned car last weekend (secretly i want to ruin them to buy 225's)

Also gotta prep the girlfriends car to go to the coast on sunday for our 3 year.

Hey you guys. Sorry didn't make it out. Had the family reunion thing.
The meet tomorrow has pretty much dimished. There are still some peeps meeting at sonic in Hillsboro but since you guys did that today probably not too interested tomorrow. Has anyone put any after market breaks on thier car? I have a 05 TL and need some new breaks and dont want to be charged a arm and a leg at Acura.. Let me know of any suggestions.

Hi everyone, got my tensioner just in time for my track day yesterday at PIR.

I'm still running all season tires which over heat pretty quick. I'm just working on my lines instead of all out speed. If I had a MT I needed a LSD big time as I couldn't put power down early enough.

Missing a part on my tensioner after the day was over so I'm going to have to buy the auto tensioner very soon.

Anyways here are a few laps: http://www.vimeo.com/6123210 enjoy!

amazing how quickly Oregon meets fail.

Was good seeing Brandon, Jay and friends out at Sonic! Sonic burgers and shakes FTW!!!

Sorry the wife called and whipped me out of there lol, maybe next time!

We need to set up a week night meet since that was the best turn out we've ever had at the last one over a year ago!

thats hella cheap deal for eibachs

for the wheels, i think oem 2G typeS rims look good. racing harts are quality wheels but too heavy. before browsing through bunch of wheels, set your budget first. that makes a lot easier.

some of the 240 guys in nico forums had trouble with unnatural so just wanted to make sure of their workmanship. should stop by someday and get some quote on the swap.

#1. DIY.

#2. Speed Concept. They've worked on several 3G TLs including mine. Install/Parts prices are very good compared to other shops.

are you wanting to put a big break kit on or are you just wanting to replace the rotors and pads with something alittle better??

i guess either way it wont matter.. both are about the same cept 1 will cost alot more =)

2nd.. dont you have a man in your life to do your dirty work? and if not what about family? those are your cheapest routes after that there are your back alley garage people like me i give the tail light warranty HAHA

last i would suggest speed concept atleast you know they wont forget a bolt like midas or some dealerships cause they are over worked
