Yeah, guys. I need a really cheap car, I am not getting tied up in payments anymore. 3G's can be had in good condition for <$1000. So it is 90% my choice. Having previously owned one, I know alot about it. But some things I cant seem to get. Now, only SE-i brakes work for all wheel discs? No Civic's or Teg's are compatible, correct. And how hard is a RHD clip to find on these things? And can someone make a printable guage face like the one in my avatar. Redline at 8000 to 8500 R/MIN, and finish at 9K, with completely stock look?
When I get this Accord, it must be a LX 4d 5sp, I specify LX for console, mirrors, and no rev limiter.
OK, guys these are just plans, I will have about $800/month for car expenses, so these things are possible but it is not likely to get done really quick. This is Ohio, my EX-Civic Si, that was stock was considered a badass car. So if money aint the problem, availablitity might be.
proposed plans:

Performance:
B16A cable
wild 9K cams, valvetrain.
I,H,E- Apex'i N1 muff(extremely loud)
Hondata
Might run juice

Suspension:
All wheel discs
Progress springs
bushings
new shocks
16-15/205 wheels undecided-but will be black,bronze or black/ polished lips

Interior:
RHD if ever available
Recaro Type R look-alikes
Type R shift boot/knobs
aux guages in console(oil, fuel pres, nitrous)
red carpet, brown or gray back seats
N2o switches hear shifter, or custom roof console
tach guage face with 8K+ redline, ending at 9K+

Exterior:
Painted Gloss black
DOHC VTEC plaque from GSR
side DOHC VTEC decals from Si
newer Accord badges
86-87 tails w/ red/clear conversion
red H's
88-89 Integra bumper front
Japanese license tags

Good luck with the RHD. With $800 a month, I think that's more than enough to get you where you wanna get to with your Accord; it's just that it takes time. Good luck with whatever you plan on doing.
