Hey everyone I'm new here. Just picked up 2010 SHAWD w/tech.
She's my daily and currently no plans to mod her at least nothing that anyone would see. I already have 2 other projects that I'm currently working on. A C5 Vette and a 79 TE31 Corolla. Once those are done I'll start working on suspension and some minor bolt on's.
I used to own an S2000 and I recognize Mr_Grand_Prix's name from the s2ki forum if your the same person

I'm sure I've run into a few of you at some point in the last few years through Andrea and Tony or other meets.

Anyways just checking in!

Welcome my friend. Glad to see another member join SA. I am actually stripping my car of it's modifications so if you are interested in anything before I put it up forsale, please ask! We are going to be moving once our house sells to the Abilene area and there is no Acura dealer in 200 miles. So I am going to go back to a truck most likely right before we leave (as long as I have a job) as I am now jobless unexpectedly. :/

So I will be talking to the admins here once I know this is going through to find another SA Chapter person to take over. At the time of me taking over, I didn't know about this move.

Thank you friend! You can PM a price on those Tein SS's
I just bought this car so the wifey will probably chase after me with a baseball bat if I start modding and we still don't have regular plates on her. I do want a mounted/hidden radar detector system. I know there is one available from Passport.

GL with the move they're usually a PIA! I'm sure there are plenty of good members who can run the SA Chapter. What types of duties or responsibilities do you towards the group?

Yeah, you're right about that. I have seen like 2 4g TL's while driving around. But there isn't many.

Mainly just activities. We will choose who will get it at that time.

Ed 91lgndsdn got dibs on the stuff first, if he doesn't then I will let you know.

My car other than being lowered and wheel spacers looks stock. I removed my black vinyl from all the chrome, and the plastidip off the grill. In prep to get rid of it in a week or so. Can't afford the car any more so looking for a beater.

I know I am leaving town the week of Sept. 2nd. So I won't be here for those two weekends and week. But after that I should be okay to meet. I no longer have the TL as Carmax now owns it. So I will try to steal the MDX for this one, if not I will be in the beater.

Not leaving yet! Still have to sell the house though. So who knows how long that will take.

Passing this on. Post in the Austin area if you are going. Click here for that link: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...718207&page=23

anyone up for getting a group together for the Leander Car Show this Sunday 09/01? The meet runs from 11-2, however most people start showing up at 9:00. This event (formerly Cars&Coffee before a dispute split them) is a casual monthly meet held the first Sunday of each month in the Leander Old Town Square. This is extremely well attended by a wide range of cars, old/new, domestic/import and all are welcome.

I'd recommend showing up by 9:00 - 9:30 to get a space as it fills up fast. Good for families, as they usually have live music, food, coffee shops nearby, etc.

Links:
http://www.facebook.com/LeanderCarShow
http://www.leandercarshow.com/ (pretty useless site...)
http://www.motoraustin.com/events/

Event location: 201 W. Willis, Leander, TX 78641

There's an HEB close by at the intersection of 2243 and 183 where we have met up in the past to get our group together, then we proceed to the meet so we can park together. If we have some people interested, we can discuss meeting up early.

if you cant get the pulley off, drive over to a tire shop or something with an impact wrench. have them hit it a couple times to loosen it and then drive back home
