      Ahhh I can't wait. Just in time for summer and just in time for my 23rd B-day in June. Life is good. My PT sales are through the roof, getting my raise next month, everything is going great with my girlfriend, I feel healthy, look much better every day, my new car, and the weather is fuckin beautiful!! Life couldn't be better.

      It takes alot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there's no real security in what's no longer meaningful. There's more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life and in change there is power......

      right on brother! milk it baby, milk it!
      The burden of originality is one that most people don't want to accept. They'd rather sit in front of the TV and let that tell them what they are suppose to like, what they're suppose to buy, and what they're suppose to laugh at. You have Beavis and Butthead telling you what music you're allowed to like and not like, and you've got sitcoms that have canned laughter that lets you know when to laugh if you're too stupid to know when the joke is. People are too lazy and too stupid to think for themselves because America has raised them that way.

      From a pretty reputable source at vtec.net (notyper):

      "I think it will be substantially faster. I've just gotten prelim dyno data from a very reputable source (but not my dyno unfortunately, still waiting for someone to take me up on the free test offer on a TSX 6-spd).

      It appears the k24 in the TSX is underrated as expected. Looks like it is producing about 210 hp and 175 lbs-ft of torque at the crank. While the hp isn't much higher than the RSX, the area under the curve (thanks to the big torque gain) is. The TSX weighs about 500 lbs more than the RSX, or about 18%. It makes 5% more power and about 20-25% more torque. Combined with more aggressive gearing, I think it will pretty much match the RSX-S as someone else said. That should be good for high 6's 0-60 best case and low 15's in the 1/4 mile.

      There is also a bit of a soft spot at 2000 rpm in the torque curve, but nothing major and it should be easily fixed with a little cam timing tweak by Hondata :-)

      The color is carbon grey. A nice different but smooth looking color.

      Thx bro. Upcoming plans include a nice set of 18's in chrome, 20-30% range tints, and white lights for the exterior. That's about all I will do to the car though. Nothing added for performance except a cold air intake but we'll see. Other than that nothing else. It's nice just the way it is.
