I got my hands on an AEM Cold Air Intake. I could not fit my neuspeed strut bar on bcuz of the intake being in the way. Im either going to install a 2001 crv intake manifold (which is not as tall) or an Ls integra manifold.

So for anyone wanting to install a neuspeed strut bar and an intake, you cant for this year's model. Not sure what year the manifold changed. My guess is 97-98 b20b are tall and 99-01 b20z are lower

oh and by the way. The picture above shown with the strut bar installed, look closely at the intake by the throttle body. I could not install the intake all the way in.

NO, i just got the strut bar a few days ago. Im either installing a skunk2, LS, or b20z manifold.

I used an electric Die Grinder to shave off the caliper.

Its a Crv Strut Bar. It fits fine over the manifold. The problem is since the throttle body sits higher, the strut bar will hit the intake. Im going to swap out the manifold.

Just installed some 2003 Acura Tl Type S wheels. I was surprised on how good they looked. Like them better then the Si wheels.
