Is that the stock carb with a different air cleaner on it? Looks weird with all of the vacuum lines still there.

Nate it's the weber
Nice clean install... :flash:
but why didn't you remove the rest of the vacuum lines?
What header is that?
What exhaust wrap did you use?

WOW u look like a friend of mine... nice car tho, what kinda air filter is that?

It's K&N... if you can upgrade to the next tallest filter, you'll get a bit more airflow.

hey thanks guys for all the positive feedback. for those who were wondering about the drop, its 3" there (set for show) but it was almost impossible to drive with all the potholes here! and they're pacesetter headers with a catback exhaust, not sure about the wrap though cuz my friend put it on.

How did you put that filter on? Any problems with it?

What model number is it?

87AccordLXsdn
02-13-2003, 02:48 PM
i clamped the filter on to the top of the carb and have had no problems at all with it. im not sure the model number of hand.

He has the filter on top... but the one on bottom is better... but you get the smaller filter with the kit because it is of course cheaper.

02-13-2003, 06:21 PM
will that bigger filter make much of a difference in the power?

Car looks great!

By chance, did you buy it from a former 3geez member that went by the name Wees87lx?!?! I could swear that's the exact same car...plus you mentioned the low miles, and he had a Weber too. Just wondering.... :)

89AccordNate
02-13-2003, 09:17 PM
Yep, when he mentioned the car I knew that it had been bought from a member on this board. He doesnt know model #'s because he didnt do any of the work on the car..lol.

That's good shit man! Hey c'mon guys, he bought the car, he's not hiding the fact that he bought it this way. ...and he's here to be a part of the 3G's board. There's tons to learn here on the board. By the looks of it, you got a real nice looking car, and ur already at a great start. Keep with the same idea that the former owner had: a project is never finished. There's always something else to do.

....actually, as it's already been brought up, one of ur first projects could be to pull out all that vaccuum mess.

Yes, it is definately a great way to start....a project is never finished as stated. There is always something you could do...

i'm not really a fan of buying someone else's creation, especially another already-modded car, but there's always stuff to do to a 3gee. Good grab there man.

How much did you pay for that car?

the car looks good. i don't think there's anything wrong with buying a car like that as long as you don't take credit for the work, which he's not doing. i am also really interested in the vacuum lines because if i could do a weber conversion and keep the vacuum lines (and pass emmissions) i would definitly be interested, despite the power loss.

and you might want to shrink you signature down or you are gonna get shit.

i paid 5,000 for it but it was worth it for only having 26k miles on it and with the stuff done to it. plus its a great car to drive.

26,000 MILES!!!!! THAT'S INSANE!!!!

Does anybody elses pacesetter pipes hang down lower than the rest of the underbody? just curious if its supposed to be like that or if there's something i should do about it.
