[MessyHonda]

[Sporno]

[Sporno]

[MessyHonda]

did you use a dremel? for the polishing.

[Sporno]

i used a dremel and buffing wheel for some , but most i did by hand

[Chef Boyardee]

You're retarded.

But anywho, that engine bay looks very clean. Especially the valve cover. What grits sand paper did you use?

Thats why he is on my ignore list :thumbup: . On the subject of the thread, that bay looks very good

[Sporno]

i used a brass wire brush dremel bit then 600,800,1000,and 2000! .. its very very time consuming

[LX-incredible]

the brake thing ont he side ( cant remember what its called)
Cruise control actuator. That valve cover looks good. Are you using anything to protect the polished surfaces?

[carotman]

Looks nice!

I'm not sure about that air intake tough.

[Sporno]

ya i know my ghetto intake .. theres another thread of people just flaming me for that....

but i use mothers aluminum polish , it shines and protects

[Blizzard]

Eagle One wadding polish works really good for stuff like that.

Engine bay looks good.

[carotman]

haha I didn't mean to flame you of anything. It's just that it clashes with the nice polished parts you have on the engine.

[AccordEpicenter]

yeah lol it looks like you cheaped out and stuff. You should make a custom one out of stainless steel and polish it. It really isnt that hard

[MessyHonda]

time for an egay style intake.....

[Chef Boyardee]

time for an egay style intake.....

He doesn't necessarily have to get one from the festering boil on the ass of the internet that is ebaymotors, he could retrofit something nice from another car. Or get just one curved piece that fits the way he needs to, give or take some trimming.

[Hans]

I like the bay a lot and that valve cover is perfect, but the intake is crazy.

I know ebay sucks, but thats about all I can afford so that's what I'll be getting when I get an intake. Perhaps this one:

I'll get a cold air one later.

Hey, whatever works man. I'm just saying theres alot of shady people on ebay.

[MessyHonda]

he could also make one out of the U pipe from JC witnney or wut ever.

i like the 6th gen accord intake...i might buy it to replace mine current one and sell the already moded one.

[Hans]

Hey messey isn't your intake a CAI? And if you ever buy that 6th gen intake and sell your current one can you sell it to me please?

[Sporno]

ya guys .. Carotman i see your concern with my intake, im hoping to replace the tube sometime soon , i havent had the time or cash since robotics ( theres another thread on that) i think it would look sick if i had a polished pipe for my intake

Im hoping to polish more parts soon

[2drSE-i]

love the polished parts dude! im thinking about going to my exhaust shop and having him bend me a one piece CAI. He offered when i went in for my exhaust and i just said no thanks. Maybe if i have him build me a couple i could sell the other one. It wouldnt be mandrel bent, but i think the power lost from that would be much less than the power lost using couplers on a 2 or 3 piece CAI

I did that when I first got my motor swap and I have to say, the thing was incredibly heavy. That exhaust piping weighs a shitload more then what they use for shorts rams/CAIs.

[thegreatdane]

Thats why he is on my ignore list :thumbup:

He just made it into mine as well ;)

[Sporno]

what should i polish next?

[MessyHonda]

what should i polish next?



power steering pump

[Sporno]

thinking bout it , never removed it by myself and dont wanna skew something with the belts up .. im thinking bout the raditer cover and the brackets for it .. also the hood latch and fuel rail

[Sporno]

ok soo im probly getting a new intake tube this weekend!! happy now? might make a difference in power?

[Chef Boyardee]

Nothing massive power wise, but at the very least it'll look alot better.

[labeledsk8r]

looks hells good, nice work. im still trying to finish polishing up the 2g lude a20 valve cover, as you said it is very time consumeing

[86AccordLxi]

Nothing power wise

Fixed :)

Alex

[Sporno]

ok so no new intake pipe this weekend , but i polished the raditater holder thingymajobby , I did it the way TypeG says to polish jank with a dremel .. it turned out way better way faster than what i had previously done . id rather have those polished than the Spoon ones than everyone on Honda-Tech has thats like OMG im sooo JDM! ... i like mine better

[drago742]

[mike10562004]

[Sporno]

they are the pneumatic tubes that came in my robotics kit of parts last year , they are much harder than the stock ones

[Sporno]

soo today we took some of the aluminum polish that I use on the car and used it on one of my robotics teams old robots ... we used it on the frame just to see what it would do . it looks amazin
