Pico's 89 LX-i Build

[Civic Accord Honda]

I messed with the timing the other day and I even went as far as removing the timing belt just in case I had missed something before when I did the belt and it still ran the same.
The adjustment on the distributor was moved all the way forward in order to keep the idle up if I moved it the slightest in the other direction it would sputter and die.
Now with the parts I changed over I'm able to move the dist. in either direction and get the timing set
my car runs best fully advanced :)

and glad u got her running good

[Pico]

Trial and error, thats how we learn. :gun:

That is so true...:)

Cah it is not a good idea to run the car with the timing off like that. You can ruin the engine as far as I know. I know when I tried messing with my timing when I heard a weird pinging noise, it made it worse fully advance.

Now about that noise, I've read all A20's have it, and even the book says its ok. :bong:

[russiankid]

That is so true...:)

I wish I could learn other ways, but oh well at least my car runs sweet. :bandance:

did u take ur vac lines off the dizzy frist?
my cars idle starts dropping to low when i turned it the other way and the car shakes with a low idle (And sounds like every bolt is falling off the dash and body haha) but with it advanced it runs at a nice 1100rpm (When the stupid thing isent revving up and down X_X )

No, the vacuum advance diaphragm does not advance the timing at idle. When you advance the timing the engine runs faster, when you retard it, it runs slower.

coulda been out the whole time, didnt you say your bolts were loose on the ACG? I completely forgot you said that when I did mine I ran across the same thing but noticed it as I started to adjust the valves and retimed.
Your car is mad tight rocking Pico:rockon:

hey pico, does connecting the alternator directly to the battery help at all? whats the benefit of doing it?

[Pico]

hey pico, does connecting the alternator directly to the battery help at all? whats the benefit of doing it?

I read somewhere about upgrading the wires to the alternator in some hot rodding article, the wire just bypasses the factory wire in the harness. It improved my charging and my lights did not dim as bad after upgrading the wire.
To me it helped out when I was running the stock alternator

[Pico]

Got this Sunroof visor from frantik
Had to clean off old pinstripe tape off of it and polish it the best I could without going the wet sanding route.

Soon, My carpel tunnel is acting up and I'm a little in pain at the moment.
I can tell you this, the front and back are level.
I went from a 3 finger gap to barely a 2 finger gap

[A18A]

[frantik]

does it ride differently?

[AccordB20A]

looks good. aparently you can go lower by removing the brake line volder and re notching the shock but i wouldnt ever do that.

My car seems to be lower in the rear than the front with the springs i got for my gf's car.

Is your car not lowered picopop, I thought it was. How low are them springs going to be?

I used to wrench a little long ago, but mostly did service writing for about 12yrs, before I started doing wholesale parts sales.
I'm lowered 1.5in at the moment and it just doesnt seem low enough :D

[nswst8]

Man, your tool box is too nice and neat. Think I might have to come out that way in 2010 and mess it up alittle.

I can't wait to see the results. I'm with you, I hate how my car does not sit level with the H&R's; the front wheel gap is enormous compared to the rear. Definitely update us when this is done.

[bullard123]

Sometimes lower is better. Can't wait to see how it turns out

[bullard123]

Hey Pico sell me your H $ R springs. I need them bad lol Or I'll trade you for my Sprint springs

[Pico]

Just installed the springs, not bad only took me a hour to all 4 corners ( had to rush so the Mrs. wouldnt see me lowering the car more )
Took a quick spin around the block and it does feel different feels better than the H&R springs. Just have to wait for it to settle a bit more to see how she sits.
My front wheel gap went from 3 fingers to a tight 2 finger gap so I know there is going to be a difference.
Here's a quick cell phone pic for now

LOL at everybody chiming in on this one. I feel ya...
the thing is I think.. is that we feel like we should defend these toys because they are always brought up in the next tiff with the wife, and we also do not get a fair turn around when they blow $xxx amount (insert frivelous feminine expenditure here) which to us has no value and seems like a total shredding of cashola.
Just say at least you were not buying smoking dope stuffing dollars down strangers panties, or getting oreintal massages with the happy ending treatment.. LOLz

any updates pico? got that chrome antenna surround piece on yet? lol

[codyJDM]

hahahahah omg.

Pedo-bump ftw

[Pico]

decided since I was stuck at home today with my f' up ankle I would attempt the map light install I got from 2drSE-i. Turns out I had to cut into the headliner so that the bracket that attaches to the mirror would sink more into the roof.
I couldnt bring myself to cut into my pristine headliner so I gave the blade to my wife and had her go at it for me. (sorry for the crappy pics all I had was my cell at the time)

I still have to hardwire in the lights and it will be done. The only thing I notice is that the edge of the visors hit against the map light housing I guess I'll have to try and readjust the visor or have them shortened a little.

Next project on the list is to get this chrome antenna housing that I got from 84Accord installed, my black housing has a pop rivet holding it in place and not screwed in like the chrome piece had.

i had the same problem with my xm setup up there,i ended up making up an overhead console from assorted other parts. don't worry about cutting the headliner, it's covered by the map light now, much better then stock.

it was just so hard to get the nerve up to make the first cut, glad my wife had the patience to do it for me

[2drSE-i]

Well it looks great pico! you may have to come up with some coupe visors, from what im to understand they are smaller. I was told that maplight would work for coupes, but the SE-i headliner is different.

[Rendon LX-i]

Nice pico...i want one of those just never got to it.

I'm ok with it at the moment, I'll probably put a little bend in them. No big thing

Thanks Guys.


sweet pico.. i had one of those map lights but i didnt want to cut the headliner and i didnt like how the visor flaps didn't match it

I know what you mean on not matching, but I can live with it, nobody else is going to see it unless they are in the car.
I got the lights wired up yesterday and got the visors to sit flush.

VERY nice pico! glad it worked out. Frantik i do believe i bought that maplight from you haha.

[MessyHonda]

how did you wire it? mine didnt work

[A18A]

:thumbup: i dunno how pico done it but i woulda just threaded some wire from the maplight to the dome light and tapped into the wiring there

[Pico]

Small update sort of.
I sold my Legend to a buddy of mine and decided to buy another car for a daily driver.
Thanks to 84Accord who posted up this listing from the Bay Area Craigslist, I made arrangements to purchase this 88 lx-i, 5 speed, from the original owner, the car has a bad timing belt but he says it went out taking off from dead stop.
The car has 98K on it and I'll be towing the car home this Sunday if all goes well.
These pics are off the Craigslist ad, I'll post some up when I bring the car home Sunday.
Wish me luck everyone.

Timing belt takes a few hours. Looks clean!

I'm gonna take my time to get this one going, I didnt want to sell my Acura, but the head gaskets we're going and I just dont have the $$ right now to sink into the car. This one will sit for awhile, until I get the money to get her running.

[Toneloc5145]

Super clean! And less than 100k, thats pretty rare. You West Coast guys are hoarding all of the non-damaged/rusted 3g's. Send some this way.

[Bass Man]

I think I counted 3 88-89 HB's, 3 2dr's, and 4 4dr's not counting mine, and that is in a 2000 person population!

And there's about 20 Accord's in the 6 local JunkYards.

Gonna keep it stock (sort of) I have a new DC Header in storage so I'm going to put that on my 89 and I use the pacesetter on the 88.


Right on man, it will be nice to have a DD. I hope nothing was damaged when the belt blew out!
Should be fine. the owner tells me he bought the car in 88, and his wife has been driving it to work less than a mile away, the belt broke taking off from a stop light. So it should be fine.

[86ccord]

hella cool!

[GTRSkyline43]

I put the DC back in tonight for one reason, Deb wont be home from work till after 12 tonight :D
I'll install the pacesetter at my friends shop where she wont see the install being done.
Actually I've been wanting to do this for awhile now and since I have weekends off I thought it was time.
I just got back from a trip around the neighborhood and what a difference it made and for some reason my idle has picked up and no longer has a severe erratic drop in RPM's at idle.

After going over it several times and posting for help, it was the 02 sensor wires crossed.
I realized it after I put the pacesetter back in and it was still running the same, thats when I noticed the 02 wires crossed :uh:

Just came back from a nice 100mile drive and I love the DC Header.

AEM Intakes are expensive, I lucked out on this one the seller only wanted 75.00 for it and it came with 2 AEM filters
I wanted to get one with the CARB sticker on it since the smog rules here in CA. are so tuff and if I get pulled over and told to pop my hood everything will look legit.

I took it out for a drive this morning and it's just probably me but, the idle and powerband seems better and smoother than when I had the homemade CAI.
But like I said it's probably just my mind playing tricks on me.
At least we know that a 6th gen intake will fit with a little modification.

[Rendon LX-i]

well aem is dyno proven pico....thats why there a arm an a leg...VID TIME DAMNIT LOL

there could be a difference in airflow thru the filter or the shape of the cai.. or the all important "placebo effect" ;)
