If you want I can PM you jbond's (Justin) number so you can ask him where he got all his stuff and where he got it done. He's also the install manager at Visions in St. Albert and a lot of the guys here went to him for stuff like remote starters or audio systems, etc.

i actually really like the stock kits, more than the ronjon ones, the sides are nice but i prefer our front and rears, except i love the 2013 front end that will be my next mod , next winter

bruce- ACKtl..... used to sell aspec painted kits for about 1150 usd for are cars , but something happened with honda america and i heard its hard to get shipping to canada now. the kits are about 2600 from the stealership here. but i guess you could always ship to Montana shipping outlet and drive down and pick it up yourself

The opener is on May 2nd. Would love to go, see if I can make it work. Gotta get my car detailed, very badly lol. So dirty from work, damn dirt roads!

Buddy at work has a 4G as well. He says my car sounds sick, nothing like some 3rd party verification that the exhaust rocks.

Guys I got 2 tires 245-35-19 that I used for 2 years. Outer edges worn more then center of the tires due my - camber. But if your alignment is true and straight you could get a season or tow out of them. PM me if you are interested.

hit up kijiji, I doubt you will get wheels and tires for 400$ tho, it's spring time and everyone thinks that their wheels are worth lots since it's the time of the year when cars are modified. I was on the look out for some 18s for my FX so I can mount my winters on them and it was ridiculously expensive for shit wheels.

didnt make the opener again.
Which means ive been an Acurazine member for about 2 years and havent met any of yall yet.
BTW do NOt take your vehicle to ProTech Transmission.
only 400 km after clutch and flywheel replace and already have a "chirping" in the clutch.
and a loud "clunking" noise coming from the front end........
which means they werent thorough on tightening everything up.
now my whip has to go back in.
WTF?
Not to mention he dinged me about 150$ over value on the parts.
not impressed.

This dude that worked at West Side Acura for 15 years just opened up his own shop a few months ago that specializes in Acura, Honda, Lexus, Toyota, Subaru, Mazda, Infiniti, Nissan, Kia, and Hyundais.

https://www.facebook.com/jasperautoworks1

Just bring your car there, he's thorough with his work and much cheaper than the dealership.

I can vouch for Jasper Autoworks,
Wai is a solid guy, works on my dads, mine and everyone who owns an Acura in my extended family. great pricing also, would trust him 100% with my car

He's actually gonna be pulling out my tranny in a few months.
was just there this morning actually, asked him about a bunch of stuff i wanted replaced. he looked over my car and said i only needed about half of what i wanted done and to save my money and not worry about the rest.

Jeff also knows him, so thats atleast 3 guys on the board.

The 780 season opener was a gong show, nothing but an endless line up through the united cycle parking lot. They closed off the parking lot across from Tim Hortons. Pretty much every car there as either an Evo, STI or a Genesis. Getting worse every year lol

I'm not so sure. I watched the fight...almost nodded off a couple of times.

Plus (and I'm no boxing expert), I'm not so sure I agree with the scoing, if not the outcome.

I really wanted Pac to win but honestly, Mayweather took that fight easily.
Call Mayweather a chicken or whatever, but thats how he has always fought, just look at his last 47 fights.
Pac didnt fight like he usually did, he threw alot fewer punches than he normally does, probably just wanted that paycheck.

Fight was defs not worth 100 tho, most boring fight i've seen


count me in for next sunday

Pacman had a right shoulder injury in which he couldn't take inflammatory shots so there's that for why he threw fewer punches. He earned 80 mill from the fight and donated 40 to charity.

That's his retirement right there. Apparently there might be a rematch.....in 5 years.

Damn I'm in cowtown this weekend!

Welcome aboard! We're looking to have our first meet of the year this Sunday so if you're free feel free to stop by. We usually have them at the parking lot at Timmies near United Cycle.

My thoughts exactly haha, I still think it was a match that should have happened like 5-6 years ago.
