Rep Power: 407 Yup, all LHD CTR headlights from Germany come with built in leveling motors; not JDM Ones.
Factory built in.
Cutoff is supposed to be like that.
I used LHD Halogen shield off LHD CTR Headlights to achieve correct "Flare"
and used TSX HID Bowl to get wide beam.
If flare was going other way(RHD Beam pattern and it would have serious problem)
Washer for color mod.
Too poor..
Spend too much on car, I should start saving up lol.
Got new bumper to replace.
Almost done paying off..

Rep Power: 266 did the TSX bolt right up or did you need to do some modding? i'm putting some TSX's in TYC housing for my 7th gen, but it has required massive cutting and fabricating. i'm keeping the HID shield though. the halogen shield looks weird on the TSX to me. but it's personal preference. they look good in your housings. clean install. did you take pics of the install?

Rep Power: 407 Can't afford 2 seats.
ACtually wouldn't want 2 bucket seats anyways.
Maybe If funds allows, i will opt bride brix.

I just had to open up and used TSX HID bowl.
I am using CTR h1 halogen shield (only way you can get the halogen shield is buying 800 halogen headlights LOL). and hid tsx bowl(wide), washers for color mod.
Ultimate!
You can't use tyc halogen projector shield on tsx hid projectors; they are not swappable.
Replica.
Saving up for track wheels. possibly 15x8 with 225/45/15

Rep Power: 407 Don't think so.
Most people use Valeo projectors off audi a4 for tyc's or sonar aftermarket headlights.
Lucky enough to get LHD CTR headlights imported from Germany and have funds to do it lol.
Probably spent 3 X than normal retrofits, but all parts are OEM, clean, one of the best, If not the best.
Plus cops can't dick me around having hid's, because all parts are oem and headlights clearly shows honda mark on the bottom corners.
Enough, plenty power on street.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No dyno numbers, I would guess somewhere around 210+.
Running 10psi upgraded pulley.
Mind you that i dont have header and exhaust, still saving up for better setup.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
people have dynoed 240-250. (with race header and exhaust)
SSR custom or BCRH.
Maybe with mugen twinloop in the future; I can wish..

Dang.. How my car sits as Today.
Ugly..
Been calling places to order comptech parts, i know they are going to be rare...
Complete Legal in CA.
Do have race kit, with upgraded 10psi pulley, but i got sweet JRSC Decal
Sold Buddyclub RSD and put in eibach prokit.
Soft, but whatever.
I like it, don't have to worry about steering rack, speed bumps, saves times to raise up car for oil changes
