[adams86lxi]

Well check it out. I now own 88turboaccord old accord!!! I picked it up sunday. It has seen alot better days but will see good days again. I have everything to put it back together. Justin tore it apart to be make it even better then before but never really got the chance to finish it. Plus he has a twin turbo audi now and loves it to death lol! But here are some pics of it!

If you dont remember which car im talking about here is what it used to look like.

As you guys know. I sold my b20 to twoloudandproud saturday so its gone and decided to go another route.

alright well here is whats happening. He gave me TONS of parts with it. I have the fully built engine thats in the car right now with a brand new cylinder head. I have a spare a20 and a few trannys with it. Along with a couple intake manifolds and a spare head.

The fully built engine is going in my 4 door for now and will be boosted right away. The other engine will probbaly be going in my new accord and being rebuilt and put back together etc..

Don't forget to check these guys out for a turbo manifold for our cars:


http://www.evolution-racing.com/store/exmanifold.htm

I'm supporting them cus they are the only company I know of that makes a turbo exhaust manifold for our cars. The more they sell, the more they will have available for our cars and they probably would get cheaper as demand increases :rockon:

[thegreatdane]

damn! welcome back from the dead. I had been wondering why no one was buying this. Nice to see you got it! Will be fun to see that thing back together again.

[bobafett]

fuck yeah adam! if i lived closer i know i would have picked it up.

congrats on the purchase... im sure just will be happy that the car will have new life, i know im pumped to see how it ends up. u should turn the hatch into ultimate track 3g. :)

definetly keep us posted on the progress

[NXRacer]

i was hella jealous till i saw it in its current condition :P

thats hella tight tho adam. Congrats.

BTW i'm really still jealous. lol

[spnrx]

Mucho props on the buy good luck and I hope you make it better than it was before.

[HondaSi88]

Man that car was one of the first modded 3geez ive seen. Bring it back because right now..............damn

[Legend_master]

Nice find, what all is done to that motor? You should keep it gutted and make a race car out of that thing. Use the 4DR as a daily driver :cheers: . Welcome to the hatch family

[gfrg88]

sweet adam!!! nice buy, i wanted to get that but, as some of you know im always broke.... hope this time you get that thing running good and strong :rockon:

[TWOLOUDNPROUD]

I see you put that cash to Good use:cheers:

[88turboaccord]

I wish I had the time to put the car back together, but after 3-5 yrs of sitting around, I just knew I would never get back to it. I just hope that the car gets restored and not sent to the junk yard. Best of luck to you.

I drive this car now instead

[BITESIZE]

I remember that car back in the day!

[NXRacer]

i dont get it . . . ..

[3G Jester]

oh thats awsome. good buy :) good luck on the rebuild. and those stickers!!! some of the original 3g stickers.oooold school

[Sporno]

he stickers cause the oldest they can be is 5 years old.and on the old turbo did u do anyhting to the internal engine or did u just slap on the turbo ?

[gfrg88]

i think he has all his internals ready for boost right??

[adams86lxi]

Well i tore the engine apart today. It wasnt in as good as shape as i thought but it should be fine. The JE pistons had some scuff marks on some of them and one of them had it pretty bad. But the cylinders looked fine. So i have my friend polishing up the sides of the pistons to take out the scuff marks and them hone all of the cylinders and going to just put them back in with the same rings and see what they do. Hopefully they will turn out ok. The bearings werent in the best shape either so im replacing all of them too.


Hey justin, what compression ratio were these pistons again???

[gfrg88]

do you think you can have this ready for our dyno meet, it wuld be sweet to see your car there :rockon:

[88turboaccord]

Sorry the pistons were not in the best of shape. The CR is 8.5:1. The rings are off of the ford ranger 2.3L motor.

[Cheeseburger]

good luck adam!!!! lets see that car back in action...

[carotman]

Congratz. I wish I could have a clean white hatch :D

[SQ is the SQUAD]

its a shame justin hasent been around like back in the day. and its a bigger shame he never finished his hatch, it gave me so much insporation. but i am sure its in good hands now.


........no, maybe ill never finish my hatch

[88Accord-DX]

Looks like a fun project to put back together.

[Mike89Accordcom]

Glad it went to another 3G owner. Hey Justin, you still had my accord site URL on your window, haha tight.
