The Real PITA.... EuroAccord13

[EuroAccord13]

Hi all;

First of all, I don't own a Subaru of any kind, I was referred by Overl0ad whom just recently introduced himself after buying the MY07 Liberty/Legacy Sedan...

I spent hours two days ago reading this forum and IMO is the best Subaru forum around so I decided to join up to learn more about the boxer engines... I hope you don't mind having a non-Subie owner in here and I hope I can contribute to this forum as well...

Okie Doks, I drive an 04 Model Honda Accord Euro aka Acura TSX but here in Australia, we get the detuned version... we don't even have the upgraded ECU that the 06 Acura TSX get in our 06 models.. And since I have the car for almost three years... Warranty is running out so... heheheheh...


I've done a bit of stuff to the car such as;

Apexi VAFCii
Apexi RSM-GP with G Sensor
DCSports 4-2-1 Headers
Custom MagnaFlow Single Outlet Race Series Exhaust (Didn't like the restrictive dual exhaust on the car)
Mugen 1.3 Bar Radiator Cap
EBC Pads
CompTech Short Shifter
Cusco Front Strut Bar
Cusco Lower Arm Bar
Tanabe Sustec Pro Coilovers (Lowered 2 1/4 inches)
Ingalls Camber Kit
Whiteline Rear Sway Bar
Enkei DC5R Alloys
BMW Lip Spoiler

Plus other bits and pieces....

I also have in transit from Mira Loma in CA of the USA, Front and Rear PowerSlot Slotted Rotors, Hawk Ceremic pads as well as Endless Pads from Nipponese Japan!

As you can see, I love American parts LOL!!!!!

I have 126Kws @ the wheels now which is around 180HP, I'm not sure what that is in SAE standards...

I'm still talking with Skunk2 about the compatibility of their Camshafts and soon to be released throttle body... Hoping to get them soon so I can go and join the Dyno Competition in April next year in the FWD category...

Oh

My

Goodness.

That's a hot car :cool:

Of course you're welcome! As long as you're not really a PITA ;)

Thanks for the compliment on the site :grin:

i dont realy like hondas but euro accords are sexy.
yours is blue..even sexier :P

[badbasser98]

I must say that I really like the Acura TL's here is the states, and the TSX is very similar to those. So needless to say, I like :grin:

The TL is my dream daily driver :grin:

When I was over in germany and saw an accord for the first time I had to check my pants afterwards. Then they released the TSX. One of the sexiest sedans I've ever seen. I like the color on yours too. That's the same color I saw on the one in germany.

Damn! You too?! :)

Love the TSX. Quite possibly one of the best mid-size sedans EVAR.

Welcome to the site!

I want a TL with the 6MT...oh god...263hp, low end torque, and good highway gas mileage! (33mpg EPA estimated)

The EPA also estimates 28mpg on my Subaru and I've gotten over 28 quite frequently on the highway.

[Huffer]

A-Spec TL will do me just fine. As long as it's white on black, perfect.

The TL's have that near-perfect wheel/fender gap that BMWs have, and they are simply just class. Room, performance, looks...full package baby!

Welcome to SLi, we welcome any enthusiasts. Thanks for the compliment on the site, some of us spend hours on day to make sure everything is running smooth. Enjoy your stay and poke in whenever you can :smile:

Welcome! Nice ride.

My step dad just bought a brand new Acura TL Type-S. The thing is wicked. And guess who's the one who'll be taking her in for maintenance every once in a while. :grin:

I really like that car...

Ive always liked honda..

had a 2000 Civic Si Myself... (B16A2 motor)

thought about bigger wheels? maybe a set of some gunmetal/bronze 17's???

[EuroAccord13]

Thanks for the welcome guys, I'm sure Overl0ad can vouch for what I think about this forum!

I know how hard it is to run a forum, I'm a Super Moderator at a Honda Forum and geeez it's alot of work handling complaints and inappropriate contents... Good work to the Moderators and Admin here!

I used to run Zenetti 18s but it was starting to attract attention and also, the wheels are too heavy for my ride, I prefer keeping the stock/sleeper looks to reduce the car being a cop magnet (It's very strict here in Australia, they pick on you as and when they like) as well as it helps to reduce the number of times people try to drag you at the lights...

Looks like we have another 2deadlegs...

[Wiscon_Mark]

Nah, nothing could be as annoying as him...

Am I missing something?

I've seen 2deadlegs post on old threads, right around when I first started on here, but you guys make it seem derogitory...

[EuroAccord13]

Hey Gil!!

Not in recent time !

The most recent hole, well crack was made when I bottomed out the car on a twisty LOL!

He was a very annoying postwhore. There isn't much left of his history...well, he still seems to have 1200 posts or so, but most of them are from OT.

[blackgtbeauty]

Ah, gotcha.

I may post a little much around here about nothing, but it's way more fun than Nasioc, not that I'm trying to shoot them down again cuz I'm not, I just like how we tend to joke around here a bit more than they do.

Humor is good for you anyways (just not to much i suppose).

I wish I had relatives/close friends near me that were into Subie's just as much as me, they're all honda people :-(

/ramble.

[Wiscon_Mark]

Don't worry about it Rob. If anyone had a problem with you, you'd know.

I certainly don't.
