CHILD'S *EK* ... finally i have an EK

[Hecz]

I like it man, good color too. Acuras are really nice cars.

I agree, nice car. My coworker has same year/color as yours. But the engine's not nearly as clean as yours.

Child, is there a specific reason why your e-brake is engaged so high? I know normally they should be firm at about 4-6 clicks. Yours looks like its as high as possible, but maybe it has something to do with all your mods.

That's a great shot, by the way.

looks about the same as mine when i yank on it. it all depends on how you have the cables adjusted not any of his mods lol

I know many people have theres up that high, but its not suppose to be. Given CHILDs obvious attention to detail, I had to ask him.

true, that does look a little high to be adjusted properly. or it could just be the low perspective he shot the photo exaggerating the height. either way its not a big deal i barely use mine unless im parked on a steep hill

Nice TL! I've liked those ever since Chris bought his girl that white one. Does this one have the leather interior? And is it an automatic?

 

[mymmeryloss]

We love our TL. Great choice!

There's a difference between engaged and how far you can actually pull the handle.... looks fine to me.

It's mostly the angle of the pic. I'm sure my cables could be tightened but it's not abnormal


The tl is leather interior and auto. I love it.

Nothing wrong with auto on a daily. Leather is always nice!

Extra points for black leather

That's awesome! Hope it turns out to be all that you expected. Thanks for taking the time to endure the pain of my thread, especially here on clubcivic since it's the longest and most detailed.
