    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    My passenger side's power seat reclining function was out of the game, ever since I got the car 4 years ago. It really wasn't necessary to fix it, because no one hardly ever sits, but it caught my attention, when the driver's side started to quit reclining two days ago lol. Recalled myself of...

    How can we get 6thgen more activity?

    Your comment actually reminded me to revive my account on V6P after all these years. I recall joining them before 6GA, and I thought I should do that now. Was surprised to see how things have changed over there, I've totally forgotten about that lol. Anyhow, it's very nice to check out some...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Nothing but caps on this post lol. Replaced the nasty one with the semi-newer one, when I renewed the one on my Accord's years ago. Got a new set for only $50! These are usually $25 per piece, like it says on the screen. The caps were originally for my Accord's BBS in the future, but I...

    I love the way the instrument panel looks on the 3G TL's. Wish that the dash panel surface wouldn't get cracked so easily.. right? 2G = Bubbled. 3G = cracked lol. Btw, I recently have discovered that the design of the CL's instrument panel is actually older than the 6th gen Accord's. You had...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Yea I can get those two functions with a generic HU, but I just don't want to ditch the stock steering wheel audio control... Believe it or not, I used to be heavily involved with audio stuff on my previous Accord CE1, but I guess it's just b/c of that experiences I had, my desire of upgrading...

    Oh, not a chance. Those are def keepers for me :favorites37: Yes indeed, it is a little special feeling for me to stand out from the crowd of tech-spoiled SUV's when driving this V6 coupe in public nowadays. However, I believe there are two contemporary features that this car (and my 6GA) is...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Had a chance to rotate the tires on my own, and replace the rusty lug nuts with somewhat newer ones from my OEM Accord's that I've kept them for a while, when I got the McGard's for my BBS wheels years ago. There has been a noticeable gap between the bottom windshield glass panel and the cowl...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Seems like we can only attach 5 photos per post, so I had to throw out a new one up here, since I got a small update anyways. Well, the battery started to get my attention for a replacement. I'd assume that this AAA battery (not the battery size, but it's branded by the roadside assistance...

    How can we get 6thgen more activity?

    OMG... I can edit it. Thanks for listening to us, Shaggy. It must have been difficult to operate this place, especially when it's running by free membership & many people with ad-free browsers nowadays. I believed in you that you will one day make this happen. Thank you again for your effort...

    The radiator decided to end its life, as I was expecting it to happen soon, based on my experience with my 6GA's six years ago at the similar mileage. These Denso radiators seem like it can only last for less than 200K mi, when they're exposed to somewhat "extreme environment." In fact, this CL...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    It's about time to take care of the leaking clutch slave cylinder situation. Received the OEM cylinder w/o the clutch delay valve by Heal Toe Auto. Since my clutch and the cylinders are all stock, I always have to freeze my foot a little bit before I entirely let go off the pedal in order to...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Okay that's good to know, thanks for the heads up. I'll most likely get their cylinder then. I'm curious to see how I'll feel the difference. Well, I haven't checked out the Costco's octane level in my city, but I'm suspecting that it could be 91 instead of 93.. ____________________________...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Was thinking that the parts replacement game has been all set, but it really wasn't. The clutch slave cylinder has a little leaking now, so let's screw what I said previously lol. The car has been running great, and I can't be happier, but I've been having this little knocking / pinging sound...

    How can we get 6thgen more activity?

    A) I think we should limit the number of pages that can be viewed as a guest. I recall V6P forum does that, and that limitation actually motivated me to become a member, in order to source out more info from them iirc. I became a member up here eventually, but it's still surprising to me that...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Got the car back with new factory axles & half shaft parts components. Yay! No more vibrations! No more driving like a gran ma in a limping mode either. Man, I forgot how powerful this car was.. The acceleration on the 3rd & 4th gear is absolutely insane.. It's so much fun to drive this thing...

    At this point, no one knows how long I'll be nursing out this queen, when she gets her castle. Oh yeah, the queens are both in the same SMR color. :cheers: Yeah, man. It's so nice to have a beater! If I had the money, I would have finished up this swap game, immediately after getting this CL...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Yea that landing will def tell you it's the suspension lol. I hope you won't be a grandpa, when the swap is done.. But really, as far as the replacements go, while this car is being drivable, it should be just this, and the swap can happen w/o any additional work. (Maybe the heater core...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    I'm only thinking about getting the factory parts on these sections. Honestly, I didn't even believe in this chassis having a little aftermarket option for the new axles, until you mentioned now haha. OEM parts are durable AF in any ways, so I tend to stick with Honda's, unless the parts can't...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Got a little update on a car (a change in condition lol). Well, she's been running like a champ over the summer this year, but I recently started to notice some vibrations on the car when it accelerates, particularly on a hill, around 45 - 50 mph on the 4th gear... Before this, I've actually...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Hey, no worries haha. So, if it's pretty much all about the wires, I guess we won't be needing the actual switch of the mirror from CL's eh? I'd assume setting into the mid position on the accord's would reverse the mirror. Oh snap, my bad, I meant to the VSA, not the ABS lmao! Yea getting an...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Haha I can totally get the picture of ur dash then lol. Well, the cars are all cloned, so what can we say, right? Yea that auto side mirror tilting thing is one of the sweetest Type-S features besides the memory + heated seats imo, too! Well, I think dash is just a dash -- a panel. My...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Oh ok, yea that's a bummer haha. That's right, I can rock with the cassette player adapter. I might be going with the Bluetooth FM transmitter then, if there's no oem HU around. I just like to use that steering wheel audio controller thing, but I guess a stock CL's HU is kinda being hard to come...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    That's right. I remember you were contemplating on getting a CL for the swap, right about the time when I got my CL. Well, you beat me for finishing that up haha! Actually, Evan has been helping me out on my swap project a lot from the beginning. I've been hitting him up from time to time...

    RR's '99 coupe EX-L

    Whether you're going to sell it or not, the car seems like it needs a little love and attention to go towards your decisions anyways. Being a "Teal"Ryder might not be such a bad idea after all.
