Anybody Still Left......

[HostileJava]

Is there anybody still hanging around here from the East Coast group that used to have meets 5-10 years ago? Marc, Rob, Steve, Travis, Maurice, Mike? I know I'm missing some people. I used to be a moderator on here and I was just curious if anyone was still hanging around. Was looking at some old pics of my 3g's and thought I'd check in on the forum.

Edit:
Damn, I didn't even see mike89's thread.

[lostforawhile]

I'm on the east coast but im near florida, I think the closest member to me is Vanilla sky

[Vanilla Sky]

I remember that meet, but I was like 16 at the time. At least it feels like it's been about a decade since that one happened.

[2oodoor]

Hey! I believe there is a thread not too far buried that all of those have checked in. I actually was looking for some of your pics a few months back but they fell off your host and are gone from here.
Good to see you check in! Roodoo2, just reversed my sn :)

[HostileJava]

Glad to see some people still around.

I'll have to see if I can dig some pics up, I stopped renewing my domain, moved all my pictures to a google
account.
Here's some pics of my current vehicles listed in my signature as well:

I check posts every now and then. I miss my 89 LXi, but I don't think I miss replacing parts. It was a hobby. I am in that stage of life in which I need more predictable transportation. Still, I am almost certain that the Accord will be the longest tenured vehicle I will have owned.

[2oodoor]

Hey! DBM

I've been eyeing those s series 4 door pick ups with 4x4 and off road suspension. Seem to be quite rare but I seen 3 mint condition trucks in the past month and I really like to have one in my fleet :)

[lostforawhile]

I have the 2002 ranger for a daily and the old towncar as a backup, so I don't have to. Rush the hatch,I am workinng on it though and have no plans to get rid of it

[MessyHonda]

Hey Jim

[HostileJava]

I have to say I'm surprised at how many are still hanging around. I do miss my 3g's. There is one for sale on my way to work, that I keep looking at, but I can't justify another car to wife.

[MessyHonda]

I have a 04 accord i4 5speed. Any mods to it?

[gp02a0083]

I'm still around, been crazy ever since my father passed away. Now working on the 94 f250 that was my fathers and my 86 cutlass 442 clone project (some of you east coast guys may remember them from an old E-town meet). I still got my 89 black hatch, just finished overhauling the brakes on it last week.

[Legend_master]

I'm here, who are you people lol?

[Vanilla Sky]

Buy the car and stash it. That's what I do until I can talk my wife into it. Make her think that it's her idea.

[carotman]

Glad to see you around again!

[HostileJava]

Trust me when I say, that would NOT go over well.

[PortugalFocus]

I'm still around-ish... Just got another Honda, but I don't really miss my Accord. It was probably one of the more reliable cars I've owned though. The vacuum octopus on the firewall however....

This is why you ditch the carb and convert to FI :P

[PortugalFocus]

This is why you ditch the carb and convert to FI :P

I didn't have the time nor money to convert to EFI, fuel pump, intake, injectors, lines etc. Locally, at a salvage yard I remember it was more than $500 for used parts.

[russiankid]

I haven't logged on in a while, been busy with school and everything else life has to offer.

Currently rolling in a 2012 tC.

Im backkk haha my Accord has been sitting for 4 years but I just got her running again this weekend. Traded that b16 civic I had as a daily about 3 years ago, for a volvo s70. Its time to get this thing painted and boosted and then start on finding an engine to build for my high boost setup. Glad to see this place is still here and alot of the OG's are still around

[Tdurr]

Worrddd! Obd1 for boost man.

[lostforawhile]

I have some serious projects in the works that are under wraps right now, trying to get this thing up and running

[Neuspeed87lx]

hi guys, i check in around once a year. nice to see a few guys from way back.

Things have changed for me, i drive a ford escape with two kids now !

[JohnBoy]

I'm here, who are you people lol?

Hey Escapes are tough vehicles, welcome to the checking in thread! Lets see...a good swap, hmmm taurus SHO swap or better yet ecoboost twin turbo :)

[J. McNeal]

I'm buying a truck when I get home, still got my Accord, getting engaged when I get home [I'm in Afghanistan for a short tour]. Yep.. Living the dream. Kids are a blast ;) gotta 3 year old son who's dying to see me! Can't wait! 3 more weeks!!!!!

Be safe over there man! I got some friends who just left for 6 months to Bagram.

[Jareds 89 LX-i]

Ahhh hell I might as well check in here too, lol....... I don't post a whole lot anymore but do browse from time to time. Still got the trusty old '89 LX-i..... still runs and drives like a dream at 437k. Also bought a 2007 Ford Edge SEL back in Nov 2012 for a "nice" car, since the Accord has definitely seen better days cosmetically, lol. I needed something a little bigger to haul my 3 dogs around in, and tow a trailer. I really like it though..... just wish it was manual. I still drive the Accord too though, and still love her. Still have my same bike too ('04 CBR 600 F4i) that I bought new back in '04..... just turned 274k miles and running like a dream

Glad to see some old familiar faces around! Hope everyone is doing well :)

[Vanilla Sky]

Damn man, I think I need to get a CBR 600 as my first bike, since you're having such good luck with yours. Old Hondas Anonymous will live on forever, just you, Rooz, TheMagi, and me.

[markmdz89hatch]

I'll bring this one back too. I haven't been on in years. Still have the hatchie, but just decided in the last couple weeks that it's time to finally let go.

[markmdz89hatch]

Anyone still around 5 years later, since Jim tried to see how many of us were still around?

[randisimo]

am new to the 3gee community but we here we here.

[Dr_Snooz]

Still here since 2007.

[AC439]

I'm still here and have been here quite frequently.

[night]

I'm not still here

[2oodoor]

Hey!

[Jareds 89 LX-i]

Still here.... since 2000, lol. Still got the same LX-i the whole time, still going strong, hahah

[Dr_Snooz]

We need pics to believe you.

[Jareds 89 LX-i]

Well alright, if you insist :rofl: This was actually from just the other day..... all the vehicles I currently own celebrating a little milestone..... as of this pic, the mileage totals of all 4 combined is exactly 1 million on the dot. The old 3g doesn't look so hot anymore.... northern car.... road salt... it's a battle that I've lost, unfortunately :( She needs a few things fixed but overall still very solid mechanically and runs great!

[Dr_Snooz]

[Legend_master]

Still here, and still have my 3gee.

[2ndGenGuy]

I'm here. Got another 3gee.

9526

Repainted the bumpers, and they are looking fresh. Got some SEi cupholders and armrest. New glovebox.

9523
9524

$200 for the car, delivered to my house, dropped in a $100 engine, about $200 in all new gaskets fluids, hoses, misc. Has Rendon's old suspension from his blue car, Integra wheels, Alpine deck with Bluetooth.

9525

Also still have the 89 LXi race car. The 84 Sedan and the 81 Hatch. Also an 87 Helix and a 2010 Fit.

[conozo]

Started daily driving mine for about 3 weeks now. It's been great and running well. I forgot how much I miss the analog guages and seeing the odometer roll numbers. Also the handling, took a clover at 70mph and the car went around it like it was nothing.

Nice find!! Lookin great! A great addition to the collection.

Now that spring is finally here in my part of the country, I will start daily drivin' mine.

[2ndGenGuy]

Haha thanks. I wish it looked that good, but the paint is faded on the roof, and the rear rocker panels and wheel arches are all rusted out. Interior is pretty clean though. She's a good daily driver for a while. :)

[AC439]

I'm here. Got another 3gee.

.......dropped in a $100 engine....



Did you put in an A20 engine ? Where did you find it ? I'm up to a point that I am considering putting either another head or even another A20A3 engine. But here in mid FL, I cannot find any JY that has a 3G.

[BITESIZE]

Waz up bitches!

[Juggalo88Accord]

Im still around with the same 88 it's been sitting for years. My civic blew up at work so I decided to revive the old 3g rather than get into a new car. Battery alternator fluids and it's alive I have used it at work now 2 nights no problem and that's 4 paper routes at 150 miles a night I'm very impressed needs alota work though it's getting a oil pan as I type

[86ccord]

We out here still. Been trying to find a nice 3g to jump back into though. Didn't realize it would be this hard lol

[redaztec]

Still around, still got my 89 that I've had since, I think, 07? It's cool to see a lot of names I remember from the time I spent much more time on here years back.

[88LXi68]

[A18A]

yay

[3G Jester]

DAMN! This thread really brought a smile to my face.

You guys always were the greatest, I love this place!

[bscanlan]

Still like to come here, especially when Facebook irritates me. All the knowledge is here. I still have my LXi coupe which I just took out of winter (Ohio) storage, and now that I can’t go very far, my LXi hatch project should see serious progress this summer. Nice to “see” all of you.

Damn dude been a while!

FB is just the joshcolerendonodd1gabecolederrick rehash of the rehash.

They finally learn how cars work and how to sorta work on them. I remember when I was 25 too.

[Dr_Snooz]

If you love the board, POST! :):):)

[2ndGenGuy]

Hi!!! I don't get here nearly as often as I should... but I get on Facebook even less.

Crazy my last post with my "new" red hatch was almost one year ago! I guess I built it somewhat properly, as I still drive it every day.

My only problem I've had with it is when I let someone else jack it up, it slipped off the jack and broke the radiator.

Then one of the main grounds broke. The ring terminal was crimped totally flat, which caused all of the copper strands to fatigue and break.

The transmission has been doing a fun grind noise when it goes into park since day 1. To avoid it, I start and stop the engine in neutral. I'm honestly surprised the transmission hasn't grenaded with me dailying this thing in Seattle traffic, and putting the pedal down hard.

[Pico]

Im still around and pop in a few times to see who still here. Dont drive a 3g anymore, Driving a 2011 Sonata for my daily and still working on my 54 Chevy Truck

[Dr_Snooz]

I'm daily driving mine, for the most part. I need to do a lot of work on it, but none of it urgent. It's normal age-related stuff like replacing all the bushings, redoing the braking system and upgrading to coilovers. I alternate with the 4g, which is mine since Mom passed away in 2018. I'm finishing up a major service on the 4g, including timing belt, water pump, valve adjustment and oil pump. The 4g has the most extraordinary oil pump, which requires you to remove the timing belt and drop the oil pan to remove. The pump itself is integrated into the front of the engine block. It's a real Rube Goldberg contraption. Which is in keeping with the profoundly complicated balance shaft business that originated on this engine. The shafts require a separate timing belt and a lot of jitterbugging to keep them in phase with the cam come belt replacement time. What a dumb design, like most of this stupid car. The 3g had rotor on hub brakes, but then in 1990, they had the great idea to reverse that and go back to hub over rotors. Grrr.

The car knows I don't like it, which is why it fights me every time I attempt to work on it. This time, the studs on the exhaust manifold galled and broke off. So I bought a new one on eBay and waited a week to get it. Every time it's like that on this one.

Still, it's quiet, smooth and comfortable and has a double-wishbone suspension, so it handles great. Best of all, I can actually buy parts for it, unlike the 3g. It would be more fun if the engine didn't have low-oil pressure, low compression and a lot of blowby. Everything else is in pretty good shape, except for the body which seems to be covered in random bonks and scrapes.

[mkymonkey]

Hey all,

AcidX and I still hang around. We're actually on a discord call right now reminiscing about the forum. I don't drive a 3g anymore, sold it to another member here. He did a few things with it, from what I recall. Anyway, wanted to check in and say suuuuuppppp.

Its kinda funny seeing the signatures I used to design for ya'll and I like that some people took over my sticker business I used to run here. haha Some of you all still have my shirts too! lol.

one love brother, miss this place and my 3geez, but lx-incredible still has it down in tucson. Been looking for another, found a seemingly mint hatch the other day but it turned out to have been t-boned and "repaired" ... needless to say i passed it up. Sucks

[Krynvel]

Hey y'all, new to these forums but not new to wrenching.

[BlueTech]

I'll toss in my "I'm still here" post. I'm Still here.

I was beyond discouraged by the damned "black box" on the '86 LX. I finally cobbled something together and managed to get that effing thing back on last night after far too many hours. I plan to post this one - with pictures - after I finish with the PCV install. You LXi guys had it easy on this one...
