Bring your two way radios guys!!! We will discuss what channel at Buckee's to use so we can all communicate while driving and have some fun. I have a big ham radio with an antenna I will put on my car (can reach 20+ miles) for two ways but for pictures that antenna will go down in the trunk.

San Antonio members, where do you all take your rides for repair? I need the timing belt done and a few replacements such as spark plugs?

I know foreign affairs in schertz, but anyone know who can do the work here in town at a reasonable price. Gun Acura charges me $1,200 for parts and labor.

Try Real Tech Collision. Family owned and Johnny the owner/mechanic is a real nice guy. They charge like $60-70 an hour compared to $125 through Acura.

Talk to R&N Garage off Thousand Oaks. Always take my cars to him and he is usually half the cost of a dealer and it's family owned. The owner actually works on your cars and his name is Rob. Said Russell referred you and he will take care of you. I recommend getting the oem parts kit though from the vendor on here as a package and then taking it.

Ended up going custom catback?! Magnaflow 18in resonator ~ 2.5in regular piping ~ 2.5 in to 2.5 out Y ~ 2.5 regular piping ~ two borla mufflers w/ 4in borla tips


Pros: looks nice just installed rear types a spec~ got it all done/custom bends at Midas for $205 even (piping;welding;bending)~ &no rasp

Ok the Cons: F***********************NG!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOUD!!!!!!! & drone I guess kinda stays waaaaa before shifting think I could use some more back pressure...

My thoughts are to go back tomorrow and CUSS them out!!!


Lol just kidding; imna go back; tomorrow & have them install my oem mid muffler in line... Hopefully that will be the magical fix otherwise I payed alot to mess up my car? Any one have any idea what I can add to silence it... I'll try to get some pics up or atleast a link to my album intro add them... Someone please help!...
