on the topic of rice, I don't get 3rd gen tl'ers at all:

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/ready-hate-ready-love-740527/

Pure rice right there plain and simple, ugly, no door handles, eyebrows on your tail lights, folding mirrors that look wierd, poor hacked together grill, and eyelids and people are PRAISING this car, some guy gets a HD lip on his bumper and you chew em out for being rice? I am confused...

I think there is a module from KPTechnologies which is a fairly simple install that'll do it... At least thats what I think I heard

4G =
That front end look should stay on the MDX..way too big for the TL and the back end is too stubby. They ruined what was an extremely nice car. Love my 2G and 3G is secks as well..but the 09 sedans have taken a plunge IMO.

Thanks. Yes, it is the Cascade Car Club. There are always awesome cars and people there. I seem to see the same group of people every year I'm out there. Here's some laps if you haven't seen them already http://www.vimeo.com/6123210 just working on my lines instead of all out speed since I'm still on all season tires ;-)

When I was at the track I met up with the Forged Performance guys. I'll probably go to them to get a better tune. What's awesome is they are working on a K20 / k24 swap in to the NSX. They said its easier to extract power then the J32 and cheaper to maintain.

Oops, I meant c series not J32.

I'll have to vist their shop soon to see it. It would be pretty cool to do a C Series swap in a TL!
