GldCrzy, yea you really have to lookout for deals out there. There was a guy selling his roof spoiler for 50$. I called dibs but apparently, he didn't see my reply. lol.

Raj, that sucks, go get BBS! lol I've done some research and I don't think it damages your engine if you installed it properly. lol.

Vince, I got mine from bm.

Haha, I'd only rock AME Shallen's on the 240.

The TL looks soo offf to me now with the stock wheels, I was used to the wide ass that the 17x10 +25's gave me

Arthur, I would if I could. I can barely work on my own cars with my bad knee, let alone other peoples car.

Anyone got a spare passenger side axle? Mines starting to make noise. This week would be one year since I got my car. Bought it with 75k on it...It has 119 on it now! I drive wayy too much...44K in one year...when the average is 25k

edmua6

It's all good man! You should throw some spacers for your stockies! And lower it as well if you are going to change the axle :P

edmua6

HeatbagTL

ive driven an rx7 through a winter before and all seasons and managed it haha.. good times with that car. i'm still debating on what i wanna get for a 2nd car. but basically both cars are still mine..

LOL @ myron and arthur!!

EdmTSX

Didn't know this thread existed aha. I have a 04 NBP TSX located in Edmonton. Stock with rims at the moment, will be modding in the future for sure. And I used to work at west side acura..

v|nsan|ty

Oh look at that another TSX owner! Raj isn't the only tsx on this thread any more haha.

So I'll be detailing Raj's TSX this coming Saturday. Is anyone interested in having a detail done this Sunday? Text/PM me

EdmTSX

haha he actually messaged me on the other tsx forum on about this thread.

tsxsingh

^^^ LOL i felt alone... and yeah can't wait to see the car allll shiny! make sure u take b4 and after shots Vince!

tsxsingh

oh i finally got the interior 5p led set, installed them, looks good, also got the reverse hid 1W bulbs, but the assholes sent me the wrong bulb.. im pretty choked! waited 2 months for these, they claimed they shipped them out right away b4 and they must have gotten lost in the mail, yet they didn't send me any emails saying there shipped, sooo thats shady, emailed and complained after a month n a half, they shipped it again with "a few extra bulbs" which was only 1, and 1 doesnt even work, stupid ebay assholes! ugh! just emailed them again abt the hid bulbs, hopefully they ship them out asap.... if i can keep them the bulb number is 194, there too big to fit in the hole (yes im expecting someone to say something about that lol) sooo i'll see if they fit my buddy's rsx if not, it'll be up for grabs... for a tiny fee.. :p

EdmTSX

oh nice. I'd like to see those HID reverse lights. Did you have to do anything special to the housing? All I've got are LED interior, license plate and reverse lights off ijdmtoy. Should also mention I have alpine door speakers and JL 6x9s in the back..

tsxsingh

lol are you serious about the speakers? hahaha i have alpine type S in the fronts and jbl's in the rear deck as well!! lol thats tooo funny!! and no i didn't have to do nething special to the housing cus they were the wrong bulbs... i gotta wait n see what the seller says, hopefully he won't be a dick and just sends them out,

edmua6

Welcome EdmTSX!

I've seen a few 'modded' acuras lately, one silver tsx with an exhaust and rims, one white tsx with cf hood, yellow fogs, and rims, and one white 3G TL with RJ kit slammed with rims going south on highway 2.

My good friend Ryan Richards of 12volt wizard can do it for you. I would offer, as I've done it on my old tsx before, but I cant :P

Other members on here can vouch for Ryan doing great work, for example "Riicky".

He has done wiring on my pathfinder, TL and 240sx

edmua6

Those guys (3G Base) that are looking forward to get an exhaust, check this thread at bm. Just bug him to ship it up here in Canada.

welcome EdmTSX! your tsx is looking good

tsxsingh

Edmtsx make sure u put a protective film on the fogs as they crack VERY easily... i had put new ones in, and they cracked after a month i was told "lamin-x" works great, a buddy with an rsx put it on after his 3rd set and they haven't cracked yet, as of 4 years later! sooo when i do my fogs again, im defo gonna get this stuff too.. heres the link to the site http://www.lamin-x.com/ maybe we can order 2 sets n save on shipping? lemi know

tsxsingh

oh yeah, up got those HID LED 1w bulbs up for grabs.. $35 and there yours.. there 40 plus shipping on ebay.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Super...Q5fAccessories

lemi know if you know anyone who wants them, there brighter then an led mag light... i tried them in the tails but like i mentioned b4 they won't fit in the hole for the rear marker, there meant for reverse...

EdmTSX

Haha I currently have the fog light housing on my car with lamin-x just with no lights in it because I didn't want to leave a wholes in the bumper. Have had the lamin-x on for more than a year already...no cracks yet.. *knock on wood* lol

EdmTSX

Thanks! I will def look into that.

tsxsingh

sweet, your ahead of the game.. haha

so i got offered 10300$ for my car. I almost wanna call the guy to come see it and then slap him across the mouth for insulting me like that haha

v|nsan|ty

Lmao people are redefining lowball, one day at a time. Damn I visited the dealership yesterday to have some work done on my car. After I left, I was well over $300 in the hole and was reminded my timing belt needs to be changed soon as well. FUUUUU!

edmua6

damn lowballers. ugh.

myron

iTrader: (4)

yea man I suggest you find an independent shop to do it or else you are looking at 1200$ from the dealership. Or if you know somebody that can do it that would be better. I think that the whole timing belt kit is 300$, 330$ shipped to you I think that's what I was quoted from a vendor on this site. That's pretty cheap considering everyone else wants 600$ locally. And make sure you do the water pump too.

v|nsan|ty

Yeah I think I got a quote for around $700-800 for the timing belt. Not bad I guess.




On the other hand, I've finally done the write-up for my personal vehicle. Here is a preview shot
