So our tsx was invited to show at the vavoline booth. I took a couple crappy shots of the car before I started having camera issues so my buddies covered the rest of the event. But it was a good turnout some crazy cars.

 

bumpp!

 

Not feelin' the red seats w/ tan interior. But other than that, it's pretty clean.

 

car looks good but those pictures are horrendous

 

thats a vip car not a race car

 

What is the reason for putting those seats in?

 

What makes this car VIP? Please explain...

 

Saw the car this weekend. Looks good.

 

lol i agree, the word "VIP" is being thrown around so loosely these days...

 

Lol, really? So why is the 5zigen tsx one of the fastest time attack cars in the world? and why does spoon and mugen both race tsx's?

The seats are in there because the car along with our dc2 and s2k are being preped to go run at sebring..

 

I usually don't get into any type of drama on this website, but someone will have to pay me to stop from responding to your comment.

**1. 5Zigen TSX is "one of the fastest" because it has corporate backing. For you to get anywhere close to that, prepare to sell your house.

**2. Spoon and Mugen both race TSX's because, again, they're corporations, and can afford to do so. It is also a known fact that Honda has partnered with them consistently to promote/showcase product and create product awareness and demonstrate capability.

**3. If corporate backing demanded, then all above mentioned companies would even turn Honda Pilots and Ridgelines into track machines. The point being that your TSX is NOT some high-performance machine born and bred on the track, but it only runs on the track due to Honda's desire.

**4. If your car is being "prepped to run at Sebring" then I bow my hat to you. But I have yet to see a PROPERLY prepped dedicated track car which runs "F1spec" bucket seats and chinese lanterns.

Conclusion:

**Honda/5Zigen/Mugen/Spoon = organizations with $$$

**You = ricer

Now, please go fix that beautiful TSX

 

looks good just dont know about the red seats with the tan (N)

 

 

I will leave it at this, no doubt 5zigen and all the others have money backing them, I never said they didnt, I was simply stating that the tsx is commonly used in racing, backed or not, and for that matter is far less used as a VIP car. As far as your other comments, the pictures lit it up so you could not tell, but if you have ever been to a HIN event then you know that its verrrry dark. The lanterns are an easy way to light up the engine bay and interior so that you can see. Thats why they were there. As you mentioned above companies pay for promotion and recognition. The reason we have F1spec seats in the car is because they are backing the project in an attempt to get there name out there. Not to mention there seats have been designed and tested to meet the same specifications as most seat makers. Finally, I will laugh at your "ricer" comment and mark it off with a smile. In no way do I believe this car screams rice. I dont believe there are too many ricers running a authentic oem kit, work wheels, tein flex susp with edfc, wilwood brake kit, ect. We run and test all of our parts. But hey your thoughts are your thoughts and thanks for commenting none the less.

 

tsx's are nice , regardless!!!!!

 

nice.

 

 

I am not sticking up for anyone but everyone has one so, so do I. An opinion.

Desire is key for just about anything, I think desire was one of the elements that fueld the owner of Spoon to step away from his comfy job at either J's or Feel's (not sure which one) and branch out to create "Speed Soon" = Spoon.

I am not a fan of the seats but who are you say what it is and is not. You don't know anything of the car other than what you see in these pictures, of the car at a "car show". You don't know if on weekends this car sees different rims and tires and runs in a certain NASA class because of his financial situation.

Oh, and calling him a ricer? really? Lets not start name calling shall we.

 

^^^ well said

 

that seat/interior color combo is Ugly as SIN . But i wont bash on F1Spec since i have a pair of their Type2 seats in black in my lude.
