[i.c.]

i know this has been asked so many times...what fb is that....oh and looking good as always

[Morpheus]

Idk about those models. :stick:
But congrats of winning, not bad at all. I like that Toyota too, AE86 right?
However, dare I ask how stiff the competition was in this import deprived state of ours?

[blazin3gen]

Idk about those models. :stick:


lol :werd:

anywayz i love your hatch bro keep up the good work u the shit man! :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:

[adams86lxi]

awesome cars! :cool:

[RobT5580]

Mad props car looks much better and i cant wait to see it in the spring hopefully. Im glad you got the time to finish it because i know you have been working on your car for some time now. The fenders look awesome!

[Bryan]

Yah dude need some new models def. Nasty.

[k-roy]

Oh man those models are nasty, especially the one on the left in the second two pics. Her mom must have beat her with an ugly stick on a daily basis.

You have a slick looking car, good job.

[johndej]

way to represent us well man. its great when peeps draw attention to 3geez. nice corolla too.

[MIK3]

That's awesome that you have that much fame with your car man. Good luck with future competition. And yes, before someone else says it already, get new models man.

[L3G10N]

you're still my man hondaman87!!!!!!!

[A Dawg Jr]

Oh man those models are nasty, especially the one on the left in the second two pics. Her mom must have beat her with an ugly stick on a daily basis.

You have a slick looking car, good job.


HAHA, I was going to say something, but I was scared it was going to be his sister or something..

[SteveDX89]

Damn dude, your car is sick. It's awesome to see what it was like at the meet back in August and now. It's look great. Those models are kinda gross. I'd wash the car after they were done touching it. :tongue: One other thing, I thought you were keeping the carb. When we talked at the meet, you told me how you liked it much better cause you can tweak and tweak.

[RobT5580]

Yeah i noticed the FI also but i like FI much better than carbs anyway. The car looks so nice now that its all complete. The NE is looking good as far as nice accords goes were going to have to have a huge meet this summer.

[Justin86]

shit I would be a better car model and I'm not a chic! LOL

[lightbulblxi]

those 2 cars are phat as hell man, nice work!

[1989 DX R]

Nice work! Looks good, I've not seen it painted and stuff.

[ICEMAN707]

hmm that's a good idea about using some nissan sentra headlights on that a86. more pics man. looks cool. the paint really made a huge difference. i remember when you were still working on it. how much was the paintjob?

[Moodybluesr]

Old school models for an old school ride! :D Seriously, that is a nice Accord, though.

[k-roy]

HAHA, I was going to say something, but I was scared it was going to be his sister or something..

That one looks old enough to be his mom. :barf:

[ICEMAN707]

what kind of strut bar is that? i thought DC sports was the only one. also, how did you do the gas pressurized shocks for your hood? i've always wanted to do that but i dont know how much psi shocks i should get. got any pointers or a how-to even?

[SteveDX89]

His strut bar is custom.

[hondaman87]

hmm that's a good idea about using some nissan sentra headlights on that a86. more pics man. looks cool. the paint really made a huge difference. i remember when you were still working on it. how much was the paintjob?


those are lincon town car headlights and those models they looked wasted or something my friend told me to

as for the carb i'll still put it on time to time but when you go turbo FI is kind of better

[NXRacer]

deff one of the best 3geez. man, all that needs is a nice polished turbo under the hood and it would be complete!! :D

[88LXi68]

as for the carb i'll still put it on time to time but when you go turbo FI is kind of better

What?? you change back and forth? lol

car looks good!

[blazin3gen]

What?? you change back and forth? lol

car looks good!


lol i was thinkin the same :cool2:

[Bloodlust]

very sweet ride. models=old.

[Coroncho80]

JOSIAS, the car is looking clean man. I remember the last time I saw it at our last CT meeting; it was looking good but danm, it looks like a show car now. Oh yeah, ditch the models bro. No offence, but they look like they still in rehab!

[guaynabo89]

Congratulations, Looking good there.


How bout some better pics though of both cars. Preferably without white ropes around them. :D

[shane_lxi]

SEEEEEEXY!!! :D. If z3 inserts look that good on our cars, how come more people don't use them? Is there any problems with them, cause I htink you have the only one on the board I have seen with z3 fender inserts. NICE RIDE. Those corrolla's are actually my favorite car of all time :D. I like them more then 3g's i am afraid to admit, but I love my 3g, even the totaled one :D. I would buy one of those 'Trueno's', but I can't find a hatchback in town taht isn't rust bitten :P. Keep up the good work.....
:barf: NEEDS NEW MODELS!!! But don't use your sister as a car model... my sister is her BF's car model, and I don't like it too much, just sompin' about it I don't like too much :P

[Mike89Accordcom]

Yeah if your going to have chicks pose by your ride, make sure they are least somewhat cute, man....

[Elijah]

I cant beleive u let them dirty ho's touch the 3G man.

[goldyaccord]

I think the splitter needs to be taken off....

[AccordArizona89]

awesome cars!

[gingerbreadman]

Oh my freakin' GOD that 3g and corolla are beautiful. Hey Hondaman i'm sure you've been asked a million times but what kit is that on your 3 g i love it. the best 3gee on this site yet fo sho.

[shane_lxi]

what kind of strut bar is that? i thought DC sports was the only one.

There is a set of strut bars in the 'eibach anti roll kit' you can buy. I am pretty sure they make it for our cars, or atleast that is what Kelly at work told me :D. He's kinda dumb though, so I don't know, I will have to check the computer when I go back to work tomorrow.

[88LXiHB]

"Original"...

[buzzbomber88lx]

nice accord man. PROPS!! i'm loving that corolla levin ae86!!!

[hondaman87]

the strut bars I made it because I had the carb and no other would fit I know that those models were some what all right ,but those Weren't my models they were for this car parts and decal store called (BD motorsports) and I noticed that they were mest up when i downloded the pics to the comp. but I just wanna to show you all what the car looked like when it was done, the toyota all the work that u see on it I did I'll show more pics later on when it warm out ant there is a show in june called hot import nights in boston i'm going to try to enter that show and bring that toyota to it, i'm going to try to bring all 4 cars that I done over modifing I mean, and painting all that good stuff, later on I'll write all the mods that I did to my car, it might take a little but hold on tight, and all of those supports ,it is all appreciated, and keep them cuming

[HondaBoy]

hey hondaman87, did you used to have some multispoke chrome rims? if so, what happened to them. i think its the same car. anyway, i loved those rims.

[RobT5580]

Yeah that was his car its had a few changes....

[BITESIZE]

Marvelous Hatchie, It's Been A While Since I've Seen New Car Pictures Of Your Ride.

[markmdz89hatch]

Damn Josias, it's come a long way. Looks damn good bro. Can't wait to see that car in person this spring at a meet. More pics of that please.

[hondaman87]

hey hondaman87, did you used to have some multispoke chrome rims? if so, what happened to them. i think its the same car. anyway, i loved those rims.

Damn Josias, it's come a long way. Looks damn good bro. Can't wait to see that car in person this spring at a meet. More pics of that please.

[Forgar_88]

Damn man! what body kit is on that Accord? I wanna know if it took much modifying to fit.

[NXRacer]

read the thread and do a search. you'll find the answer.

[89AccordLvr]

looks really nice it seems you've change ur front bumper, can you give us some info on that and are the side skirts still from a z24 and the rear from a bmw?

Looks very good, congrats

[FoX]

[RobT5580]

He made them with his own two hands!

[SteveDX89]

are the side skirts still from a z24 and the rear from a bmw?

Yes and yes. Front bumper is from 90-93 Accord.

[Neuspeed87lx]

car looks sick man .... good job .... we should meet up sometime this spring/summer.... your not to far away from me ....

[hondaman87]

well the front bumper is from a 90-93 acura integra it fits better, and the rear I changed to the 90-93 accord had to modifit had to cut 4 inches on the side to fit the hatchback the front bumper was miner only the middle piece the sides are still the z24 skirts the on the rocker had to xtend 1/2 inch and the one from the the door had to xtend 2 inches and this set up will fit the coupe except for the cutting of the rear bumper u can purchase a hole rear bumper and it will fit to the car and the bumper support, the front one u must make a bracket for the middle of the bumper to fit the front support,,, everything on this car know is bolt on except for the 1/4 scoops

[SteveDX89]

That car is fucking sick man. I see the kit has changed since August. It looks good.

[hondaman87]

yeah
front and rear bumpers are new

[007_Redline]

Nice work on the hatch man. . .

. . . .but those were some fugly bi-yatches!

[89AccordLXI666]

Hey Josias excelent job on the hatchback accord.... Thanks 4 stopping by my house the other day to show me your car in person... it looked sweet as hell..... As alwayz Josias alwayz puts the time and effort to his 3gee and he shows much pride in the 3gee community and shows people a different perspective on how nice u can make a 3gee look just as good as 2days import tuners.... am I correct... I think I speak for most people when I say.. "3geez Has many potentals" just takes time, money and a little patients... He is one of the many people on here that shows us that we can and will take pride in our 3geez and we too can make them look nice... But remember ever 1 has there tastes and styles n every ones 3geez are very unique in there own wayz and thats great about our cars, and let me also point out that we have to do most of the modz by hand and idea because as mention a few million times here, that there isn't a hole lot of aftermarket support 4 our cars but its doing a little better now a days, be we can feel very proud of the work we put into it cuz we are the craftsman who do the work ourselfs which is the best about owning a 3gee... ok enough of me babling about this..... in conclusion, Josias u did a great job and keep up the good work... and yes Josias the next meet we have in the new england area I am showing up with u... Lataz guyz

[ICEMAN707]

got more pics josias? anyways, damn that engine in that a86 corolla is alot bigger compared to our a20a3's. best of all, it's rear wheel drive. ever driven it? is it any faster than yours? you and me should start our own custom body shop man!! i swear. i'm all the way here in FL. at least the weather is warm. here's a pic of mine so far.....
http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/7/web/379000-379999/379946_87.jpg

.....still need to do the widebody overfenders and hood shark gills. my car kinda reminds me of a shark with the 2-tone primer right now.:D i might consider a gunmetal silver/platinum silver 2-tone base, then pearl white with chrome powder flakes candy clearcoat over it. although i'm still debating on whether to wait for a mint condition 88-89 SEi with 5spd, leather,....the works... to come around before i do anymore bodywork. cus so far the bodywork and performance parts i've done are transferable...the widebody won't be (just the front fenders). the shaved doors, sideskirts, bumpers, dual exhaust, springs, shocks, header, intake, etc. all could be moved to the SEi (if i could find one...lol). IF not, i'm gonna have to do the 5spd and 4 disc brake conversion myself....which probably would end up costing me as much as buying a cheap SEi with that stuff already in it. oh well, if i decide to do the custom route, at least the parts will be brand new and done right...just takes work. i found an LXi with 5 spd and sunroof for $800 very near me. i might check it out. but it's an 87 so it doesn't come with 4 disc brakes. at least it's 5 spd, but we'll see how the clutch is. if it's blown, then it won't be worth it....i'd rather do the 5 spd conversion on the car i already have.

P.S. for those reading: anyone in the south orlando FL area can help me do a 5 spd swap this springtime? preferably someone who's done it on their OWN cars before with reverse lights working and everything. thanks.

[bertoaccord89]

your car is offthehook!! did a sweet job onthe hatchie.... NICE RIDE

[hondaman87]
