Proud Owner of ANOTHER Accord

[AccordB20A]

yes this is my 3rd one, grey aswell. Shes a bit rough on the outside. not been looked after but the paints mint
This one i picked up from a guy for $300. he said the bottom end was going. i got it to find the oil was half water and the head gasket severely blown. it runs. only knocks cause of the lack of oil i think. anyways on with the pics

[AccordB20A]

When the shipping company comes with a truck to pick the box up.....

Nice B18A :P
would be nicer if it worked and i had tools to fix it.

Looks like it's in pretty good shape :D
it is theres only that but of rust on the boot and the rest of the chassis is good.

How much you think it would cost to switch vigor panels/bumpers in shipping between us. XD
too much lol. but i can send you a vigor rear garnish for a fee. and you can fit it. and make the hole in the bumper yourself as it should be easy lol

[AccordB20A]

Okay have done some work on the front end, the right front corner had been in a crash, the bumpers been replaced and some cheap as lights installed. the popup unit was bent and same with the little bracket that holds the corner light onto the fender. the fender was also bent. i spent some time straightening it out, replaced the popup unit from one from a parts car and managed to get it looking 80%.
Alaso converted the front end to facelift. just need to install the indicators now...

[AccordB20A]

started pulling the engine apart. got as far as ripping the camshafts out, got half of the head studs out but my 3/8 drive socket set wont cut it so i have to wait till i get better tools to do the reat of the head studs.

Thats nasty!

[86ccord]

mmm dang.. that shits clean..

:D

[AccordB20A]

Fail. got the head bolts all out and i cant get the fucking exhaust manifold off grrrrrrrrrr fuck i hate these honda exhausts

[A18A]

fuck i reckon, i think you should slap a b20a head on it!

[AccordB20A]

i dont want to inject it uf i can help it. tjhat may fail due to the lack of efi fuel tank and lines

[mushroom_toy]

too much lol. but i can send you a vigor rear garnish for a fee. and you can fit it. and make the hole in the bumper yourself as it should be easy lol

Yeah only problem is I figured I need the trunk too since we dont have as much sheet metal on ours as yours. gay lol. I would need the garnish, the tailights, and the bumper cutout and support, let me know how much. :)

[thegreatdane]

B18A > B20A :p

[chowder]

dirty dirty engine very dirty hah

[AccordB20A]

going to go to work on the b18a today, i have a ehad gasket i used only ocne for like a daym im going to try on it. it should be allright. but if the head is warped im going to have to swap the engine over and somehow B20A it. Someone should send me a a20a2 carb lol

[guaynabo89]

Your rearend for my rearend. :)


eeewwww

keep that kinda stuff to pm's


j/k lol


I like the Vigor rear too.:rockon:

[A18A]

you should buy my a20a carb off me haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


B18A > B20A :p

you got that backwards :hmph:

[AccordB20A]

Lol i recon. the b18a was SO GAY. the head totally refused to come off no matter what i did, and it can get fucked if im going to remove the carb manifold of the head 1st so i just got in there with a big far crowbar and off it came, saw what i wanted to see, a new gasket wouldnt fix the head as it looks like its warped So this is what i did.....

Installed the b20a out of my car aftyer i changed its fucked cambelt.

All the hard works done the motor cranks over i jsut need to do the efi wiring and locate a efi tank.pump/line maybe and get her running

[Civic Accord Honda]

sweet :D

[A18A]

do you think you have a long enough extension here? http://imagehost.wohdog.sytes.net/Uploads/2008-9-161881P9160022.JPG

[AccordB20A]

oh yeah i should have used a longer one. but its good doing an engine swap with tools. i think it worked quite fast today, start at 10am and had the swap all done by 4:30pm

deciding whether to find a a20a carb and keep the car carb or convert it to EFI, hence the thread in general asking what the car will run like with a EFI fuel pump in the carb tank.

[A18A]

how about this for a great deal, ill give you a a20a carb + a automatic gearbox in exchange for the b2k5 gearbox there!

[AccordB20A]

nah ill be good ill convert it to efi

[2oodoor]

Tell me you didn't tell me you didn't

J/K have fun with the efi b20 head swap, carry on lol

[guaynabo89]

WOW

The art of Bundling sticks. I wouldnt think it be that thick though. :P

[carotman]

Can you take a picture of the intake manifold and head flange. I'm curious on how they look.

Since it's the 1st B18A Accord a regular member has on this board, you'll be our guinea pig :D

What's the stamping on the pistons?

[A18A]

WOW

hahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahahxinfinity

[AccordB20A]

lol roodoo i didnt harm the carbs in any way the hammer was just there to demonstrate my feeling for them at that time. the head and carbs are still for sale as is the b18 box..

today i got myself a efi fuel tank for $30. with $50 fuel in it. i win lol

righto got shitloads done today as you have just seen. swapped fuel tanksd, got an efi accord loom and stripped the pgmfi section out of it, installed it in the car, dodgyed up the fuel lines and it works!!!!!!1one

connected the ecuconstant power to the central locking and ran the pgmfi light wire over to the catalic converter box so the cat light is now the pgmfi light :)

[A18A]

hahahahaha hory, good stuff

[1ajs]

awsome :rockon:

[Hauntd ca3]

was thinkin more rangi than hory but close nuff eh lol
good old insul tape eh, duct /macgyver tape would be more appropriate tho

[AccordB20A]

rangi and hory.. i thought they both meant the same.

As long as it runs

ITS ALIVE BWAHAHAHAHAHA
rangi and hory are the same thing pretty much
I just call it using my skills of rangi rather than horyin it up.
could have said doin a maori job but thats racist that is eh bro :)

[2oodoor]

I don't understand that NZ slang, I guess I would have to hear it pronounced..
anyway that exhaust manifold reminds me of a Prelude, it looks like it would flow good with a little smoothing out inside the ports you would not need a tube header. Is that one different than your typical B20?

[A18A]

looks like a standard one to me

rangi and hory are just sayin its slapped together so it works
dont have to look pretty or last, as long as it works

have been told by a few exhaust places that honda ex manifolds flow pretty well.
so well that unless you are going to mod the engine a bit there is no real need to use headers, just a cat back
but headers look far cooler and i'm modding so am using

[AccordB20A]

All b20a have the same cast iron intake manifold and yes that is right they do flow very good. but yes headers are pretty lol and if your like me and want to change your powerband, custom length headers can help.
But ill only use thwe h22 ones on my car cause they only need a bit of port matching and they are WAYY lighter than the OEM cast ones

[AccordB20A]

Made a lot of progress today
Started off by installing a fuel filter as it didnt have one before, installed an external fuel pump in the engine bay so i didnt have to risk running high pressure dangerously from the back. Im using the evap line for the return line and it works like a charm, fired up this morning took it for a blat and it pulls good. very equal in speed to my car. cruise control works good too, I stuck a shitty tape player in it too. I installed an alarm and a good battery and now its on trademe. tomorrow i will clean the interior and maybe get it a wof and then get some cash if i find a buyer

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=177337052

[AccordB20A]

went and got a new horn and right wing mirror and got a wof. passed. so its legal. now someone should buy it

Congrats! Not bad. I wish we had B20A accords over here for $800 lol. What are you going to do with your earnings?

[Hazwan]

Cool!

[AccordB20A]

i have to buy a set of tools since i currently dont have any tools.
the car was pretty rough, had dents and rust and a leaky exhaust, the lights were cable tied in the body was pretty shabby but the motor and box is worth 500 alone so yep:) good sale.
