welcome to the forum. that is one beautiful car you have there

[Harper]

wow, your car looks amazing even on the stock rims. How much did you drop? Also what springs did you use?

[24boosted]

Your car looks great! I don't like the "white pearl" banner and painted intake manifold cover though. Everything else is clean.

[Isi]

thanks guys for your comments

[kpsharp929]

[FLEX TL]

Very Nice!

[AMUA6]

I like the rimz!

[Isi]

thanks guys

[cjTL]

Schon.

Don't see too many members on here from Europe. Looks like the European Type-S is the TSX V6 that we have here in the United States.

[Isi]

i want a v6!!!!
in europe gives only the cu2 with 201hp

[09TSXTech]

Same rims but that's all. You can get the 2.4L petrol engine or the 2.2 iDtec diesel Type S in Europe, but the 3.5L V6 is for North America only.

Reason for not seeing too many European members in the TL forum is that they are for sale in North American market only. Whereas, the TSX (both 1G and 2G) are sold as the Honda Accord in Asia, Europe and rest of the world except China as the Honda Spirior, hence we have members from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Switzerland, Germany and the UK in the TSX forum.

[88HnD]

nice euro! very clean , not feeling the banner tho..
i like the type S bumper. i thought only russian model has it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnJ2h...eature=related

does anyone know if we can just buy the bumper? and the type s emblem ? does type s means they are faster than the normal accord euro? if so by how much ?

sorry so many question : \

[09TSXTech]

^Yes to both, you can buy the rear sports bumper (either from Japan or Europe- ie European Union) and the Type S emblem (Europe or China).

No the Type S model are strictly appearance enhancement. UK has a more powerful iDTEC diesel (177bhp, a rise of 29bhp over standard tune, and 280lb ft, a gain of just over 20lb ft in their Type S), German Type S like Isi's use the same 2.4L petrol engine (201hp, 172 lb/ft) and transmission as our TSX over here. They do get the aero package (front lip, side skirts and rear bumper), red ambient lights, sports pedals, 18" rims (similar to the ones on our V6 model), clear corner headlights and Type S emblems.

Here's how a stock Euro Type S looks like:

Thanks for the info..
Dayyeemm .. love the aero pack and clear headlights for sure.
They make life so much easier in German . Here in oz, we can only get front skirt and side skirt of whats on type s pack from Honda dealer as extra accessorise. wonder how much the bumper-only cost and the shipping. i am savin up for those items on type s ...but on a second thought i like defconskylude bumper too. so slick with the lexus muffler. it's gotta be custom made right ? price of making?

sorry, not all have clear corner lights!
i haven't this
why? i don't know
all type s models in germany haven't clear corner lights.
in germany there are usually no type s!!
these cars should be to Russia and russian type s haven't clear corner lights

[godfather2]

clean and simple, i definitely like it

you can clear out your headlights for FREEhundred. just make the time to do so. it'll take 3-4 hours to do but its worth it.

you can get a replica type S lip kit off ebay for like 600 shipped. these are not replacement bumpers though. look up "rawesome." we both have the replica type s kit. there's a dealer in Washington and in Northern California.

if you want the rear type s bumper replacement, expect to pay $1000+ USD for overseas/oversized shipping.

my bumper is OEM which was just trimmed to fit the ls tips. im trimming my type s rear "lip" to fit the ls tips.

That's odd, according to the article below Germany suppose to get 900 Type S and the pictures in the article (same as what I posted ^) shows clear corners. I know the UK iDTEC Accord Type S definitely has clear corners.
