It's a Dell (aka Samsung) UltraSharp 1800FP. They're selling them for around $400 shipped right now. Normally $599 plus shipping. I'm gonna have to sell my old 19" CRT to make room. It's a good problem to have.

Jeez, for a sec there I thought you were going to say the video didn't turn out.
And
on the flat panel. 
But I know what you mean about waiting. I got a new 1.8GHz laptop with a CD burner and haven't had time to set it up. However, that is because it is for work. If it were for home I'd already have it going.

The CAI is polished but the Ingen logo is red so I think it will look good with the red engine cover and my chrome oil cap.
Maybe I will save the money for the plugs and put it toward the headers.

I can't wait to see your wheels Inferno. They're really starting to grow on me, maybe it's cause they don't weigh anything! Just make Dean give you a tracking # when he sends them to ya.

As for the plugs, you may want to go with some Bosch Platinum Plus-4 if you are due for some new plugs.
I also hear the NGK has some new plugs, maybe even similar to the Denso ones.

mantis, where is the OBD II connection port? I'm asking cause when my headers were installed my check engine light was on for about a day, and my neighbor brought home a diagnostic thingy to hook up to it and see what was up. But since he's never worked on a 2nd gen CL, he didn't know where it was. I was thinking it was between the seat heater buttons, under that piece of plastic. Is that right? If so how do you get the plastic piece off?

I drove it around for about 15 mins this weekend... I really didn't get to drive it like I wanted to, since my bro in law was in the car, and it was the touring edition. :/ Not the track edition.

I'm not sure how many of you guys are involved on **********.com, but I assumed this would peak all of your interests.
I picked the Ohio in August personally. Honda involvment would be really cool.

That was when I was connecting to it for the first time. It has since come in very handy for resetting codes (IE o2 sensor, side air bag, etc)
Its for monitoring the car's output & resetting error codes only. Tuning with the software I have isn't available.

I figure there is a strong chance my breaks will warp pretty badly at the Motorsport Ranch event and I may end up replacing them after that. I will try to get Acura to service them under warranty first, of course.
Anyway, I pretty much hate the stock breaks under repeated heavy breaking. I just can't fork over $2,000 for a new set at the same time I am buying wheels!

Anybody else noticing that the server response is getting slower and slower, especially at night?
The TL Forum is still fast, but maybe it's related to the fact that TLS are faster than CLS.
