Where'd you get the pedals and LED's from?

TaeHwan
02-01-2006, 07:53 PM
hahahahaha SAZABI!!!!!plz!!!!:bawling:
after the repair(+something), you'll notice more difference with FF_TSX's car...(hopefully):D

and thanx Benz(you were gonna say the same thing too huh~??lol)and..yep the OEM lugs CAN be used but it's not recommended..I'll be getting lugs/locks set pretty soon.
Just to be safe...:)but I can't decide on colours~~lol

and..Thanx for the comments guys..:bowdown1:
I'll answer your questions all at once.

I got the LED's at a local shop in Coquitlam(Vancouver) called ADVANCE motors

I got the pedal from japanparts.com(ordered it from japan)

For the angel eye..it won't be too soon because my car will be getting repaired
pretty soon(hopefully...by end of next week)so..after that, I'm going to do the headlight project I planned of..(housing,clear corner, angeleye kit,etc)

Get the Spoon Blue oxidized lugs...Looks great :thumbsup: :king:

what else are you getting then??

TaeHwan

what else are you getting then??
spoon...there are no wheel locks!!
those look nice but I need locks..
(and I believe FF_TSX has the spoon aluminum lugs)
I've been thinking alot for the lugs/locks...
rays,spoon,j's,mugen,kyokugen etc..
do you think blue will look good on my wheel?
open-ended or close-ended don't matter?
I thought of either silver/blue/black as well...hm...
oops..we should talk about this on other thread... :rollsmile

What other thread?? Haha.. i told you to get blue so you can look even MORE like FF_TSX...if you didn't get what i mean...:king: :jester:

I think you just mentioned ALL the brands that AJR carried, ahaha, you getting it from them? but let's not hi-jack, we talk about lug in the "other thread" wherever that is...

the ride comfort is better than I expected(almost like stock)
and the hadling has improved..but I want more..so I'm planning to get RSB ans front strut or something like that...and..I think I dropped it about 1.5 ";)

TaeHwan
02-02-2006, 11:23 PM
oh ans thank you very much for the comments..appreciate it very much~
I think my car will be repaired starting middle of next week..
you'll see a change.. of some sort;)

Yo, I really like your AT shifter, where'd you get it at? Your car looks very JDM, you should get the Honda grill to finish it off.

TaeHwan
02-03-2006, 08:48 PM
haha I went to my local Acura dealership to ask few questions and
a guy working there(asian) complimented the wheels too~
coz..people working at dealerships 'usually' don't know much about their own cars.
Last time I went there and they didn't even know TSX was sold in Japan by the name of Accord(euroR)...and they just stared at my car with no idea what so ever..
anyway..
I got the shifter at AJR:thumbsup: haha I thought of getting the euroR grill as well
but I dunno~: :rolling_e

02-03-2006, 08:59 PM
^ ya, some guy got sold a 06 COmptech supercahrger from the dealership, when the 05 is not even out yet...:laugh: :troutslap

when i bought my car, they didn't seen know they have CGP as an option...hahah!

man, i could've squeeze another FF thing in..but nah...

keep us updated if you add RSB and front strut, to see if it adds to the handling. I'm considering Tanabe's - But I too am worried that it may not be enough.

comptech superchargers are way overpriced. On ebay they cost 4 grand. Im planning to get Jackson Racing to hook up a supercharger for my car. I don't think the company has installed it for any TSX show cars, and my friend is going to try to talk to them so I could get a really good deal, and get sponsered. After all, jackson racing has more of a chance to get more power than a comptech supercharger.

maybe they discontinued it.
that one in the pic is the new version.
some shop MIGHT have it in stock...but I'm not sure about it.
I can't remember the part # but try showing pics to JDM parts distributors.
good luck;)
