More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | My issue with the TSX is that it has no sport model to differentiate it from the base models. If there was a TSX-S we'd be in business, but there isn't. I don't understand why Acura made a Type S for the RSX and TL, but not their entry level car... |

Here's my quick pick of Mustangs for the moment... |

Dunno what Honda/Acura is smoking when it comes to car design. The new 2010 lineup designs look like absolute shit compared to the last generation. WHAT Let's not forget little brother TSX... |

Lack of standard-looking pics kinda bug me, but the R34 front-converted ones aren't that bad either. It kicks ass to be in Canada, by the time I can be starting a family, they'll be legal here. |

Looks like your regular old S13 240sx but check what's under the hood... got an idea yet? Buick straight 8 power baby. It sure does beat any RB25 or SR20 swap that I've seen in originality. This car was built to run in the XO/GALT class, or the vintage, unblown gas category at Bonneville. It's hit over 235 mph on the salt. End of story, I love this car. |

Unregistered | That motor doesn't look like it was that hard to build. They probably YANKED everything out, rebuilt it to spec, and dropped it in. And, Pentroof knows what they are doing with the Z32, just like ESCORT Racing. This post has been edited by BmwNeoType on Aug 18 2009, 10:41 AM |

dude, those six-lug wheels are the shit. I've seen em on a race-spec Lotus Europa decked out in full Castrol guise. well, Nisei happened a while ago...anyone go? I didn't, but Speedhunters did... colored engine bay = new fad? ^This is why DA-model Integras are so hot right now... Pure evil SC430 is evil. uhh...WTF??? ^ $20 in Bison Bucks says that diamond rims/poorly widened steel rims are gonna be the new ricer fad. holy hell... I think this guy and I agree on something...splitters>>>>bodykits. just showing the potential of the Accord Coupe. and now, the infamous Phaze2 Civi...You either love it, or hate it; TBH, it doesn't look too terrible IMHO This post has been edited by Thir13Teen on Aug 19 2009, 11:44 AM | ||

I never asked for this... Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,337 Member No.: 15,854 Joined: Feb 11th 2006 Location: Redondo Beach, CA |
Actually, there was never a TSX Type-S. The USDM 1st gen TSX was the Japanese/Euro spec Accord Type S. The only "sporty" version of the TSX you could get for the 1st gen was the TSX with A-Spec package (body kit, wheels/tires, suspension work). The current, 2nd gen TSX comes in 4-banger only model for 2009, with the addition of a V6 model for 2010 (J35 3.5L V-6 from base 4th gen TL/3rd gen TL-S, revised suspension to deal with the added weight, slightly revised brakes, 18x8 wheels shod with 235/45 R18 Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 tires). And since people want more pics of 3rd gen TLs, I could post pics of the TL-S I drive...but that would be against the rules. | ||
