New R owner in Halifax

Post by lacmackenzie »

Hey all, I just bought an 01 CW ITR #1324. The car is stock except for AEM CAI, DC Sports Catback exhaust, and Tenzo RS5 wheels (the white 17s with the brushed aluminum lip). Are there any R activities on the east coast I should know about? and where can I find clear bumper lenses, the orange ones look like shit.

you got that straight! The car sits pretty nice with the stock suspension and 17s, but I've only had the car for a few weeks already bent one of the front wheels slightly from a bad pothole. Theres lots of winding roads but they are all so poorly kept. Oh well, what are you gonna do?

I went to St. F.X. for University so I know all too well about the N.S.
roads. The Cabot Trail would probably be nice to drive in a few weeks hey!
You wont find many ITR's in N.S. because Acura did not send that many to the dealerships back in the day. Good luck though.

clear lenses are not really a good investment as far as i think, your stock lenses look better
