NOT KARNASH

New Member
As my screename states, I am clearly NOT Karnash.

Anyways, I had a question about an Acura, and didn't know where to come to post it.

Does Acura make a "type S" model out of this car here:

If not, then a car with a "type S" badge on it is merely a ricer trying to look cool?


Trying to do some research on this, but can't figure out what to call the car.

is that the tl?? if so then yes there is a type-s
 
oh and misty hasnt been around in awhile,brian came out of the closet and is in prison..B the site owner just got a hyndai..and the crazy kungfu dude..if your talking about ji then he has dropped off earth...anyone else?
 
Umm what about that one cool dude from Oregon? He was ex military and very opinionated. I forget his name....

So this is a TL model and not a tsx?


Reason I'm asking is that some ricer has been running around town with one of those. A few weeks ago I was sitting at a stoplight and the dude was going the other way and started revving on me lol. I thought that stuff was played out back in 2001?

So PissedoffSol got a Hyundai? I don't see it.....TPP like buttsecks? Man....everyone changed.
 
oh...pissedoffsol is no longer around...he is now known as B...and yes he got a hyndai..
and i dont know if its a tl or tsx
 
TPP is dead!! long live BDN!!!! LMMFAO

ps...what it do homie? long time no talk to. hit me up sometime.
 
So only the TL's come in "type s" form?

Do you know the stats on the hp/performance? Trying to Google right now, but coming up with various answers...

Man....did the Member's Lounge die down or something?

Back in the day this place used to be popping.


Anyways, to kill time the reason I came on here:

Few weeks ago, saw some ricer in a black "tl" that had a type S badge on it. Huge fartcan exhausts. I wouldn't have remembered him unless it wasn't for the next day when I was parked at a light, and saw him driving by, and he revved on me. At first I was like then I was like wtf? After checking the time/date stamp on my iDrive, I confirmed that I did not drive into a time-travel portal to 1995. Phew.

So I see this douche again today....same general area. He was weaving in and out of traffic and I decided that he needed to be taught a lesson. I just drove normally until we came to the last light before a left hand turn. Got right behind him. Light turns green, no oncoming traffic, no pedestrians and rice boy opens it up. It was a wide open street, nothing but bushes and grass so I rode his bumper until he got into the left hand turn lane then I just said fuckit because there was a ton of traffic. As I was driving by, he kept on revving at me. I just shook my head.

So my purpose for coming on here was to find out what kind of motors the "type s" has and perhaps find a clue as to why this moron doesn't know his place.....?

Some preppied out-white boy (i think) so it couldnt have been some gangster idiot who doesnt know his ass from a hole in the ground.

Oh well.
 
280hp v6... nothing special.


and hi :)

Depends on how you look at it, my old TL was rated at 270 (Honda's older rating system) with 270 its pretty much the fastest car in a straight line in its class.

Later years that same motor put out 258hp with the new rating system from honda.

the Type S is 286 using the newer rating, so if we go back to Hondas power ratings based in 2005 the Type S would be closer to 300ish

The thing that makes the TL motor so great is unlike the other cars in its class, the TL motor makes power that just keeps gaining and gaining and gaining all the way to redline. the 05 BMW C330/328 as with the A4s all made great power up til around mid RPM then up top they fall flat on their faces. Leaves you wondering if you should shift early or wait til redline?
