Hey all.. Cant believe the bargin I got over the weekend! I got all these bits for my 3g B20. Hubs, suspension and brakes for all four corners, alterntator, electric roof aerial, idle contral valve, Full lock set of 7 locks with a matching key, chrome grill, CV joints, coil pack, 4 ABS sensors (although I cant complain 1 is bust), drop link bushings, and a few more electrical stuff from the engine bay that will be useful to have spare... All in good condition. all this for just 50euro! :tongue: :bandit:

It was nearly all lost aswell, as the whole car was 2 days away from being crushed. It was just chance I seen it in the back of the lorry from the main road..

It was only the single cam engine with auto box, so that was no use to me.

Are you sure it's from a B20A Accord?

The left CV joint is the long type.

You can see the 3 prongs at the top the red rectangle.

This is obviously the long type CV joint.

Sharp eye sight! lol Your right, its not off the B20 accord, I cant remember the last time i seen one of those.. but all the bits are off the 2liter single cam, injected with the auto box(a20 i think). The drive shafts are no good to me, but cant see why all the most of the suspension and brakes are not the same, and they are in very good condition.

3rd Gen accords are a very very VERY rare sight in Ireland now. The government will give you €2500 to scrap your old car thats worth very little, even if its running or not, as long as your buing a brand new one. So im well pleased I got all those bits. I spotted the car on top of 2 other cars in the back of a lorry, on the way to the crusher. Sure how much would ya pay for an alternator alone??

Unless someone is gonna burst my bubble and tell me that none of these parts are any good to me.. (but suppose it will be helpful to know.)

Well, you got a good price for those parts.

Unfortunately, the alternator will not fit a B20A. The internals are the same however so it's worth keeping.

The right side axle can be used on any Accord so you should keep it. You should also keep the outside CV joint from the left axle

Last year in autumn I got a pretty good deal too. I got an A20A1 + lots of interior parts + rear fogs + mint pre face front bumper + 14" Borbet B wheels + an alarm system + keys and locks = for free. :)
