Ordered those damned heater core hoses. 2 day shipping from RA, order came out to $60 for $30 worth of hoses. The cheap Dayco hoses are unavailable to me because "Prop 65 info isn't available from the manufacturer"

Never been dyno'd. Street tuned.You got any numbers or a dyno graph?? I wana see that sick ass torque curve.
How'd you come across this guy? I'd like one of these for myself!
Not today actually, but in the past week I've driven my 92 SC to several parts stores to acquire everything thing needed to change all of the brakes on my 06 Acura TL that my sone will be taking to college.
Why is it whenever I think I’m done with brakes I’m never actually done with brakes????

I hate brakes
Just a regular TL. About 240k on the car and already has it's 2nd timing belt replacement. Hoping it makes it through college for my son. The car was super nice until I hit a basket pole on the interstate one morning going to work that dented the hood, fender, door, and tore up the bumper. Then a deer hit the other side and got the other fender and door. It has been a great 1st car for my oldest.TL, or TL-S?
Either way, that J35 is a beast of an engine!

I turned her into a covered trailer. Making the move from AL to GA. The car is packed to the ceiling, including the trunk. With no engine in the bay, it looks like it's pulling a wheelie.
Quebec plates. Period-correct 6-digit design from 94-95, so he's likely the original owner.While going up I-85 yesterday between Montgomery and Auburn, I came across this guy. What a coincidence as I never see MN12s anymore - certainly not nice ones - and the one day mine has seen the sun in like 3-4 years. I can't make out the state on the tag. It was a very clean, lowered 94-95 with what looked like 97 tails and chrome fanblades. He got pretty excited when I passed him with mine on the trailer, but he didn't follow me into the fuel stop unfortunately. Maybe he's on here?

That exhaust hanging that low looks atrocious, and I don't see the point. If you have a beefy diff cover brace and the LPW or Freaks cove, plus the pinion brace, it isn't going anywhere unless you're at insane power levels.Was looking through old FB posts and found this post by dale brown?? Anyways he mentions he made a cradle to “box” the IRS subframe. It ties between the pinion brace and the lower control arm brace basically making a square. What do you guys think??

also also,
I came across this article on the TCCOA website. It details some additional welding to the IRS subframe. Have any of you guys done it? Does it make a difference?? I have seen the stock welds when I put solid bushings on mine and they stock welds look atrocious, not even fully welded. Kinda like they almost just tacked it together.

The brace would be working on motion from front to back. With the diff mounted with a good cover, mount, and pinion brace, I just can't see the load causing any movement. You also have to remember the LCAs are holding it front to back. Having just put one together, I guarantee that's just added weight.@Zep5.0 I feel like he made it so it doesn’t flex, the front portion to the rear portion. No im the sense of the diff moving. Those welds on the IRS are piss poor tho, I can’t believe they left the factory that way. Every other one from different manufacturers have welding ALL the way through. Kinda wack they skimped out.
@XR7-4.6 the brace or the welding??
That Quebec tbird a nice one. It's a mark bird. Mark viii motor, interior and wheels. They're regulars at Carlisle, very nice people too...
