8th Gen 07TLX....(Used to be 07LX)...RBP R18

[07TLX]

Picked my car in June of 2007 after a drunk driver rear ended me destroying my new 2006 Sentra 1.8S.
153,000 miles and 5 Tail of The Dragons I went from stock to current..

Mods where clean,simple and comfort....

First week of ownership.


First set of wheels, still own them and are my winter wheels... Gonna do something special with them soon.


Then after the first dragon meet and my mods changed... I wanted better handling on a budget
So new set of wheels


Then the search for my suspension, yes it took me almost 2 years to do a drop. Finding what I wanted and then worrying about my back.


I did some little thing in between..
Shifter
Exhausts, I don't recommend putting a electric exhaust cutout on DD....
Maintenance, loads of oil changes...

Mods are simple...

TWM full shifter replacement
TWM base and cable bushings
TWM Phantom shift knob

Injen CAI
2 inch cat-back to SI muffler

35% Tint

Hybrid HFP suspension
SI rear sway
2005 Acura TL wheels power coated white
225/45/17 tires, I hate stretched tires
Stainless brake and clutch lines
EBC Slotted rotors

Yellow DRL's
6k PnP HID'S
Plasti-Dip the "chrome" front grill


I think that's all....

Taming the Dragon

Little scuffs and scratches, but still look amazing....

I wish I had TL-S wheels, I couldn't find a set for less than a grand. These are just plan old TL wheels which after powder coating cost me 600 bucks.

I am bit of a penny pincher on something's....

His car died?

I'll wait for him to chime in.

 

[Nix]

I thought it had been close to death for a while.

 

[07TLX]

Yes the Civic is dead.... It was on life support after the last Dragon meet I went to and I finally had to pull the plug when the head gasket went this past summer....

I have replaced it her thou with this


2009 Pontiac G8 GT with 85k.... It's a absolute blast to drive

Yea this car is pretty tame until foot becomes heavy and you can cover ground quickly.

I am not planning anything crazy... Tint, tires, brakes, chassis bracing. Might do a cam and head swap to remove the Active Fuel Management...

This car is already loads of fun

I didn't want to ruin the surprise

Congrats man. Now you need to swap out your signature pic!

 

[Nix]

Nice car man! I didn't like those when they came out but now I think they are pretty cool. There's a white one around here with an exhaust on it. The thing sounds great.

 

[07TLX]

I fell in love with it when I heard about it in Top Gear and wanted one since then..

Yea previous owner put a axle back on it and it sounds awesome
