Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
Hello Azine!

Well here's my garage place, I have decided to mix both my 2005 5at TL (previous car) with my current 2006 6mt TL. I will list what parts are on which car.



Story of my 2005 Base 5at TL:
So on March 5th of 2007, I was woken up by the sound of my mom yelling "where's your car!!!" I thought it was a dream at first until I went outside and saw for myself that my 2005 RSX Type S had been stolen from my driveway. It was a sad day for me knowing that I had put so much money, sweat, and effort into it only to have it stolen. How did it get stolen? I will never know, but I do have a theory and this theory makes me NOT WANT TO go to the dealer anymore. 2 weeks prior to my car being stolen, I had went to Cerritos Acura to have my KEYS AND IMOBILIZER matched to my new Hondata Reflashed ECU. The advisor and mechanic came out and said "big difference man, big difference," I immediately knew that him and a few mechanics had went for a joyride. What I believed to have happened also was that they made a spare key and immobilzer for themselves. They also have my records which shows my house address etc. So I am theorizing that they had used this spare key and immobilizer to start the car and drive off...shitty yes.

So now Emo as I was, I thought to myself, "ok no more manual transmission car and no more modding! I am settling down with auto!" I had always LOVED the TL so I went to Santa Monica Acura for a test drive and simply fell in love with the engine note and luxury features. I took the keys and was on my way home! 1 week later the mod bug bit me and I was on a modding spree again! ~~~

The TL has been Through a lot, a notable fact would be that this car was featured on Traction Magazine in the July Issue I believe. I was happy to have helped RonJon wheels out and ATLP by doing this. I was also glad to have my name and car on the magazine! However I believed that I should have just waited for my Type S Front End (also another notable fact). It would seem that I was the first Anthracite Metallic to have done a Full Type S bumper swap.






Story of my 2006 Base 6-Speed TL:
Ok I am keeping this one short because I am sleepy. Bassically got tired of the 5at TL so i put it back to stock and traded it for this nice 6speed! Yes it is a big change and I truly LOVE IT! ok the end lol
