Stealth?

[lite]

very clean. ever thought of getting tint? just to complete the 'stealth/black on black' look.

[GIO]

Just add the streetglow night rider LED and you will be set to go...

[chunky]

looks sweet, with that turbo kit, it's deffanantly (sp?) gunna be a sleeper.

p.s. i like the front plate

[FlyingOct]

Yea I've been meaning to get it tinted forever, but the only place that will go beneath 30% (making it illegal) got shut down, so I'm searching for a new place. My finances are really starting to settle down now, so I'm hoping to buy a camcorder and the V1 this winter, then buy and install the turbo next spring. FWD turbo isn't good in the snow, I'd imagine.

Stealth? Hell yea. I almost got bronze C8s instead of black, but nah... Now I'm set on the darkness, gonna paint my intercooler black when I get it.

Just to make one quick correction, Turbosmart does not sell actual turbo units, but does offer everything needed to run a turbo. From BOV's to Fuel Cut Defenders, Turbosmart offers quality products that will be sold through Teck East at competitive prices.

:boink:

NICE I LIKE IT, but where is ur front grill??

[FlyingOct]

The front grill was MIA... I chopped out the whole middle section so it looks like a CTR grill without the mesh.

Gio, Teck accessories? Hell yea. Teckademics JDM squash air freshener here I come!

That thought had crossed my mind. I removed the front reflectors when I painted my headlight housings, so its a little unsafe. I always park under a light, though, at night.

Got the HKS exhaust on today. The stocker was a b*tch to get off, but it looks nice. The tip is a little bigger than I imagined, but not coffee can. The sound is... well, the jury is out right now. I spent enough money, I should just learn to like it.

Now that is a good ad =)

i like your car a lot, mostly u get to drive with the jap plate on the front

[FlyingOct]

Here in Indiana front plates aren't required. I've made a few runs through the country with that plate on the rear, but I was in a hurry after a local show...

Anyways I'm pissed. Ever since the new exhaust got on the car felt funny when I would drive. Do you ever sit down in the seat with your pants kinda crooked, feels weird? Yea like that. Turns out my friend and I jacked up the sides of the car in the wrong spots, so both of my front seats lean towards the middle. The driver seat is off by like 20 degrees. Its hard to drive and my seating position is all f'd up.

Has this happened to anyone else?

[Noodles]

I would bring your car to a Honda dealer to get checked out. Thats not too good.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that sucks...

[FlyingOct]

It does. Some guys on honda-acura.net thought it might be simple the floorboard. I tried to get out the seats but they are held down by 4 bolts. I could only manage to get one out from each of the seats, leading me to believe that the other 3 of each set are stuck because of the stress of holding down seats to a bent floorboard.

I am waiting for one of my friends to get off their lazy ass and let me use their air tools. If I can't beat the damn thing straight, I'm fucked. I'll just say its a special JDM mod.

Its hard to drive. I have to adjust my mirror every time I get in because the seating position is hardly ever the same. Taking hard corners is a bitch too.

[Noodles]

Damn dude thats really not good. Bring it to your local Honda dealer and let a tech look at it or even call and ask them about it. Idk if beating it will be good for it. You might be even more screwed if you get the seat out and can't get it back in because everything is so warped

[FlyingOct]

Nah, it'll be cool. If the car gets warped it'll just sell for less... It can be replaced.

[Noodles]

Dude your car could be totalled. You seriously should get it checked.

[FlyingOct]

Hm. Hopefully full coverage covers idiot friends.

[NewImageTypeR]

looks clean and mean...nice job

[FlyingOct]

I'd much rather be driving your car. :bowdown: Black doesn't do much for the ladies!
