^1.5 for 3G TLs are enough but he has a TSX, I did a quick research and the stock ride hide is pretty high. I guess 1.9 will be just fine.
here is a picture of my accord last year.
I've driven it last winter and it wasn't that bad.

@ricky.. yea, i think i paid way too much for them. but at the end of the day, you gotta pay to play. they are my dream wheels ever since. regarding my exhaust, it's an XLR8 TL-S quad exhaust. they are made for the TL-S but it can also fit regular TL, the exhaust is just direct bolt on. however, you have to put a type s bumper or type s rear a spec (i'm going for the tl-s rear a spec) in order to give way for the quad tips.
here is the diy for type s rear a spec installation

I may take that challenge. You just have to take it slow because you have to drill the bumper, front from underneath and back right in the middle half way up the bumper. But i did it with no help so 2 people doing it will be even easier. I never used the dremmel but i am sure it's not rocket science. Plus I am an engineer so I am sure I can figure it out hahaha

@riicky. alright i will let you know.
@myron. i don't think the type s rear lip will be a pain in the ass. have you checked the diy? https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...=diy+type+rear
the only tricky part is cutting the slit for the plastic strap on both ends of the lip. we don't need even need to cut the middle part of the bumper, we just need to cut the sides of the exhaust outlet. other than that, it will be a piece of cake for you. lol

no i didn't get a quote the guy was in US but I will tomorrow. And then I am gonna give your guy a call.
I did a tranny fluid change, back 50 000km ago. I had to because my 3rd gear was popping out and grinding. Dealership changed it with honda fluid and it was fixed for a month and it was acting up again. And then I did the change with GM fluid and it was all good. 50 000km all good not a single issue. Get that if you can. Chevrolet dealership on argyle road and 75th street might have it. THat's where I got mine 2 years ago

There is more GM tranny fluids. And they are not called GM any more. They got bough out by ACDELCO. Fluid is called Synchromesh Transmission Fluid Friction Modified. Make sure it says Friction Modified on it. I think I got an empty bottle in my trunk I can take a pic of it and post it here so you see how it looks like. If I still have it I have to check.

drain and refill. I left it dripping there for a while. I raised the car, took the drain bolt off, it started draining into the oil pan or what ever you wanna call it that's pretty flat, then lowered the car of the jack so there wouldn't be any left somewhere in the back or something. Then I just refilled it after like 15-20min.
