Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
good buy, shame its not manual but thats not hard to fix, same with the valves
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
yeah :( still pissed about the brown interior...
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
is that rust around the back window or just dirt?
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
Looks like rust to me.
I wish i had pre-facelift parts heh.. I so want the look.

Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
apparently there is some rust but none on the structural parts
Cant stop counting the days till I see her !!!
The funniest thing about this car is I paid $450 and to get a flat bed to deliver it 1700km costs me $400 lol
But still I reckon will get my money worth from her even if I need to scrap it, ludes normally go for about $3000 for average condition, so all I need is get her to an acceptable condition.
Spoke to 3GCVC( Alex ) and I am very tempted to go with a manual especially since I have read his builds on pp.com and ofcoarse AccordB20A lol
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
I have a serious problem !!!
The car will be delivered to me in 2 days and already it has an option part for it lol
I am sure you know what this is and how rare it is :)

Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
Great find. You got it for good price too. 1700km delivery for $400? It's quite a deal!
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
Yip,I must say I was surprised, they went to collect the car on car carrier truck and I told the guy a few times that the car was not running next thing I get a call saying he is at the guys place and they dont fetch cars not running so I am like bullshit !!!, I told you and sent your wife a link to the car in the classifieds where it said that the car was not running
Anyways the guy who sold it to me (Paul) and the driver pushed the car up the flatbed because there was no tow hitch on the truck and this car also had flat tyres
I must say that paul has been very helpful with this whole deal, as for the towing company you are idiots !!!
awaiting delivery on Thursday :)
Gonna take some pics
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA

Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA

I am only gonna start working on this car in awhile will let you know as I also might want that intake manifold
Also does anyone know if the sei arm rest fits the sedan ?
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
Got the CAR !!!
Well finally it has arrived and its been hectic getting it just before I left work a server crashed and my boss was implying that I must stay there but he could see my mind was somewhere else lol
I never thought the car would be in this kind of condition, I suppose it is more exciting to make it running now
So here are the pics and plenty of them
I went to fetch the driver of the truck to follow me and all I could see was my accord, my heart was racing all I wanted is to play with my new project lol
here it is on the truck

Well after moving the other 2 cars off the truck it was time for the accord, first off brakes were locked and we pushed it all the way down and into my carport FML!!!
and while it was going down the dude mounts the pavement as it rolled so fast, but all was ok :cheers:
So here is the engine pics

Quite the project you found yourself, I hope you are amazing at cleaning.
Re: 3G JDM Accord - an extremly rare find in SA
cool car! i've never seen an armrest like that, and i always dig some rare interior parts. but it should fit whatever. they're all the same.
