[MessyHonda]

well at least you got a better engine in the car...cant wait to see your B20 engine build up

[bobafett]

good job dude. its a good feeling to get a motor back into the 3g. :)

[AccordB20A]

the engine had ben in storage for ages in a dusty shed. started 1st time tho....
it ran like shit for a couple of minutes until it did one huge backfire threw the carby and away it went. then we put it to the test and went to a town 350kms away to pic up a car on a trailer and brought it back another nothing went wrong. Gotta love the aseries for reliability. its done 350000kms and still going strong.

[AccordB20A]

[Selfmindead]
